Net::D...CCGOST(3pm)

📦 version 1.19, in ubuntu jammy

✨ NAME ✨

Net::DNS::SEC::ECCGOST — the DNSSEC ECC-GOST digital signature algorithm, bestie 💖

Quick vibe check on this page itself: it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual section, and the header up top literally shortens the name to Net::D...CCGOST(3pm) — not me being lazy, that's genuinely what's printed there, she got truncated 💀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

require Net::DNS::SEC::ECCGOST;

$validated = Net::DNS::SEC::ECCGOST->verify( $sigdata, $keyrr, $sigbin );

That's the whole ritual. Require it, then call verify. Periodt. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So what this module is: an implementation of the GOST R 34.10-2001 elliptic curve digital signature verification procedure. Verification. That's the whole job. She checks signatures, she does not make them, and honestly? Knowing your lane is main character energy 👑

💫 sign 💫

Signature generation is not implemented. Like, at all. There is no signing here, bestie. Go find another module for that 🙈

💫 verify 💫

$validated = Net::DNS::SEC::ECCGOST->verify( $sigdata, $keyrr, $sigbin );

What it does: it verifies the signature over the binary sigdata using the public key resource record you hand it. That's it, that's the function, and she ate 🔥

Go read these next, bestie, they're the supporting cast and they all understood the assignment:

okay that's the whole page, ily, go verify something 🦋 This was served fresh off perl v5.34.0, dated 2022-02-06 — so if you're reading this in the future, she's vintage now, and vintage is iconic ✨🎀
