Note that most of the implementation code comes form respective commands, if this get's merged, I'll rewrite them to use this API.

@magik6k since these are going to be user facing APIs, lets go ahead and make this all godoc compliant

Is this multiline format what gofmt emitted?

+type IpnsEntry struct {

+	Value Path
+}


I wonder if we should make IpnsEntry an interface, in the spirit of future extensibility. Opinions on that?

On the topic of future extensibility, we should also consider adding TTL/expiry to the returned values.

You can use KeyAPI

This looks pretty good overall :) 🤖 Left a few comments and questions

+	WithNoCache(nocache bool) options.NameResolveOption


I have a hunch we shouldn't make this a negative, even if it's already a negative in the CLI/API -- opinions?

Let's call this WithType(), following ipfs key generate --type=

We can have consts for the key types:

const ( RSAKey = "rsa" Ed25519Key = "ed25519" ) keyapi.Generate(ctx, "my-key", keyapi.WithType(coreopts.Ed25519Key))

//TODO: better key type?

Let's make it a Key interface (for easier future extensibility)

type Key interface { Name() string Type() string // is the type exposed through the keystore? Path() Path // => /ipns/QmPeerID }

Also, any opinion on returning a map[string]Key or a []Key here?

+	// name and returns a base58 encoded multihash of it's public key
+	Generate(ctx context.Context, name string, opts ...options.KeyGenerateOption) (string, error)


Should we return Paths instead of PeerID strings?

Should have DefaultValidTime = 24 * time.Hour for this

This looks like it should be err != nil, typo?

We don't use n.Identity, I think this check can be removed

I noticed key can be both a key name and peerID (see keylookup()) -- cool! Let's make sure to document that :)

👍 looks really good to me

@whyrusleeping, I noticed that ValidTime doesn't seem to work at this time scale. Is this by design (should I drop this test), or is there a better way to do this (or is it a bug)?

hrm... thats tricky. It should be okay at 100ms... I'm not sure this isnt a bug. How does it fail?

magik6k · 2018-01-02T00:42:48Z

Added tests, fixed some bugs they caught, other than that one question and after test are reviewed this PR is RTM.

core/coreapi/interface/interface.go

+
+	// WithSize is an option for Generate which specifies the size of the key to
+	// generated. Default is 0
+	WithSize(size int) options.KeyGenerateOption


It feels a bit weird having these options be part of the interface... cc @lgierth

The thinking was that in the future some of these option funcs might depend on state of the KeyAPI object. But actually in these cases we can just pass it in as an argument, e.g. keyapi.Generate(ctx, "mykey", coreopts.WithType(coreopts.Ed25519Key))

Drawback: the likelyhood of name collisions increases: there's more "type" options than just the one in key/generate. We can prefix these funcs, e.g. coreopts.WithKeyType, or we can make a conversion similar to the api.KeyAPI() conversions: opts := api.Options(); keyopts := opts.KeyOptions()

Oh, so all the options are in the same package?

They are in one package, though are scoped per API, see https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/pull/4477/files#diff-764a71d2f522b4136e7909befd573776R53 (or the tests).

For key API, type will always mean 'key type'. In the case where we create another function for which it would make sense to pass this option, it's possible to reuse that (with some more go types magic)

core/coreapi/name.go

+			return nil, err
+		}
+
+		if pid.Pretty() == k {


when could this ever not be the case?

We're iterating over all keys in the keystore and this is our return condition -- it's not a sanity assertion :)

Ah, i see now. Carry on
