Chronicle Vocabulary

Chronicle extends core PROV-O by adding vocabulary to describe cryptographic processes and identities, as well as preventing conflict between multiple Chronicle domains on-chain by employing namespaces.

chronicle:Identity

Represents a cryptographic identity for an agent, supporting a single current signing identity via chronicle:hasIdentity and historical identities via chronicle:hadIdentity.

chronicle:publicKey

A value containing a hex-encoded ECDSA public key.

Domain: chronicle:Identity

chronicle:hasIdentity

The current cryptographic identity of a prov:Agent.

Domain: prov:Agent
Range: chronicle:Identity

chronicle:hadIdentity

A historical cryptographic identity for a prov:Agent.

Domain: prov:Agent
Range: chronicle:Identity

chronicle:Namespace

An IRI containing an external ID and UUID part, used for disambiguation. In order to work on the same namespace, discrete Chronicle instances must share the UUID part.

Domain: All prov and Chronicle resources

chronicle:hasNamespace

Allows disambiguation of potentially conflicting IRIs on the same chain, used as a component for address generation.

Domain: All prov and Chronicle resources
