Components: xdiFront

Description

xdiFront is an experimental XDI endpoint for i-brokers. It provides external applications with the following functionality:

• Check if an i-name's password is correct.
• Retrieve an i-name's i-number and synonyms (anyone can do this).
• Retrieve an i-name's private and public keys (only the i-name owner can do this).
• Store, retrieve and share arbitrary XDI data associated with the i-number.

See Examples: xdiFront for some information on how to talk to an xdiFront endpoint.
