DID webvh

The TSP SDK and CLI can resolve DID:webvh natively. To create a new webvh identity, we use the official Python implementation by the Decentralized Identity Foundation. As we rely on a Rust-to-Python interface, you have to compile the SDK or CLI with the create-webvh feature flag to be able to create webvh identities. Additionally, you have to prepare the Python environment to run the CLI in.

Create a DID:webvh

Initial setup

1. Make sure you compiled the CLI with the create-webvh feature flag enabled

cargo install --bin tsp --path ./examples --features create-webvh

2. Make sure you activated the Python environment and installed the required dependencies. For that, make sure you have uv installed on your machine and run uv sync in the ./tsp_sdk directory.

Create a DID:webvh

Creating a new webvh identity is as easy as running

tsp create --type webvh --alias foo-alias foo

The expected output would be something like

INFO tsp: published DID document at https://did.teaspoon.world/endpoint/foo/did.json
INFO tsp: published DID history

FAQ

Q: I'm getting error: invalid value 'webvh' for '--type <TYPE>': invalid did type: webvh

A: Most likely, you did not compile with the create-webvh feature enabled. Please see Initial setup.

Q: I'm getting error in the underlying Python code base: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aries_askar'

A: Most likely, you did not run the command in an activated python environment with all required dependencies. Please see Initial setup.
