Property Credential Persister
Description

A credential persister plugin that uses a properties file as storage. The plugin is intended for demo and testing.

It is fully functional and can be accessed concurrently, but it is not optimized for performance, and it does not scale to a large number of entries. It keeps everything in memory and reads and writes the whole data file.

The following keys are used:

  • cred-active
  • cred-ordered
  • cred-ordered-user
  • cred-ordered-date
  • cred-binary-data
  • cred-string-data
  • cred-delivery-date
  • cred-generation-date
  • cred-serial
  • cred-next-binary-data
  • cred-next-string-data
  • cred-next-delivery-date
  • cred-next-generation-date
  • cred-next-serial

The properties are stored in the following format: userid.selector.key = value
