[Interop] Nats Message Schemas

[Therecanbeonlyone1969]

We need Nats Schemas for the following Messages based on the standard:

• Create State Synchronization and Advancement Predicate --> ACME BPI to Bank BPI (R140 - R145)
• Launch IVSM --> ACME BPI to Bank BPI (R151)
• Remove IVSM --> Bank BPI to ACME BPI and the other way around (after workflow completion) (R159) --> would archive workflow on both sides.
• Exit BPI Interoperability (R207)

hey!

Need to get the NATS message schema endpoint underlying the protocol messages

[fleischr]

question - what is the assumption to how/where BRI-3 NATs to integrate to BRI-1 NATs?

Are we orchestrating peer-to-peer connectivity or standing up a standalone interop module? @Therecanbeonlyone1969

[Therecanbeonlyone1969]

@fleischr the assumption is that we use NATS in P2P. The BPI Subjects representing BRI-1/BRI-3 in each other's stack have to have a communication endpoint associated with the BPI Subject either explicitly in the BPI Subject Account or implicitly through the services section in the DID document where the NATS endpoint is placed. Since each BPI Subject representing BRI-1/BRI-3 are identified by DIDs as we agreed.

Can you please confirm that BRI-1 can manage DIDs in NATS messaging since BRI-3 will only send DIDs?

[Therecanbeonlyone1969]

for server-server messaging using the NATS request-response pattern:

• Add each others NATS server URLs to the NATS server URL list
• Authentication via JWT token with a DID in it --> That is still an open point! We need to know if BRI-1 can use DID-JWT
• Create a topic called Interop
• Instantiate a NATS listener that subscribes to the Interop topic and continuously listens for incoming messages, and then processes the incoming messages on that topic as usual based on the workgroup.

Suggested Interop Message
Schema

messageId: uuid
sender: string --> DID of BRI-1/BRI-3 respectively
recipient: string --> DID of BRI-1/BRI-3 respectively
signature: object --> curve, pubkey, signature
type: string --> default value: interop
payload: payloadObject -- see below
WorkgroupID string --> as provided in inviteMessage from BRI-1/BRI-3
WorkflowID  string --> as provided in inviteMessage from BRI-1/BRI-3
WorkstepID  string --> as provided in inviteMessage from BRI-1/BRI-3

payloadObject
object: object --> as defined in communicated schame
proof: string                      
type: string --> Groth16 or Plonk
witness: object --> pubInput (object), verKey (object), proof (string), crs (either for Groth16 -- new for each time a proof is generated -- or based on the public PTau ceremony for PLONK that was chosen e.g. Aztec vs Polygon Hermez)
