Description
The project DRman aims to develop a standalone utility for Verifiable Credential Registries (VCR) management. It includes functionalities like credential creation, verification, modification, and revocation, enabling easy management of the registry. The project has three significant aspects: DID Registry creation, member onboarding, and DID management. The project seeks to address migration issues by migrating the project from GitHub to GitLab to make it infrastructure-agnostic.
The project project DRman has an end goal of developing a stand-alone utility to provision Verifiable Credential Registries [provision VCR]. The utility can also be used to administer the registry containing credentials issued by the organizations. The functionalities like creation, verification, modification, and revocation of credentials, form the core of this project as it enables the administrator to manage the VCR with ease.
The significant aspects to be considered here are Creation, Onboarding (Enable/Restrict Access) of members, and Management(add/update/revoke) of DIDs.
a) Key aspects include:
- Creation (of DID Registry): Function to create a DID Registry for an organization on Git.
...
- Onboarding: Function to add enable/restrict access to members of an organization to a repository (e.g., using a combination of GitHub private tokens, GitHub username & users DID).
...
- Management: Function to list APIs that are needed to add/update/revoke access DID’s or (DID Document) saved as files on the
...
- repository.
This summer, the project holds a variety of interesting migration issues to be addressed that focus more on migrating the project from GitHub to GitLab, making it infra agnostic.
Learning Objectives
The mentee will have an opportunity to learn
- Gain proficiency in using GitLab as a version control and collaboration platform.
- Learn how to migrate a project from GitHub to GitLab, including the process of converting the architecture into executable code.
- Develop hands-on experience with Hyperledger Aries and Indy, along with adopting the Hyperledger AnonCreds specification.
- Build skills in Shell Scripting and RUSTRust, which are programming languages utilized in the project.
- Deepen understanding of open-source contribution, documentation, and ownership through active project involvement and potential contributions to related articles, blog posts, or white papers.

Relation to Hyperledger and Impact on the community
Employing By employing GitHub/GitLab-based DID registries compatible with Hyperledger Aries and adopting Hyperledger AnonCreds, our this project aims to enhance community interoperability and utility across Hyperledger frameworks.
Mentee Open Source Contribution Experience
...
within the Hyperledger Indy and TOIP (Trust over IP) Ecosystem.
Recommended Skills
We are looking for mentees who bring a blend of academic background, technical skills, and open-source contribution experiencewith:
- Graduate or master's students with a focus on software development or related fields.
- Knowledge of decentralized identity concepts and familiarity with Hyperledger frameworks, specifically Aries and AnonCreds.
Proficiency in Shell Scripting and Rust programming languages.
- It's better to have a A history of contributing to open-source projects, ideally demonstrated by at least one resolved issue. We value mentees who have , and a strong interest in and experience with open-source contributions, particularly within the Hyperledger ecosystem.
Future plans
We plan to elevate Our goal is to enhance DRMan's functionality capabilities for comprehensive DID Registry management on GitLab, incorporating the Hyperledger AnonCreds specification and extending GitHub operations. Our ambition is We aim to seed the project within Hyperledger Labs , aiming to significantly extend its reach and impact significantly.
