Struct Trust 

pub struct Trust { /* private fields */ }

Which servers this client is willing to believe.

Implementations

impl Trust

pub fn plaintext() -> Self

No certificate is expected. For http:// and ws:// servers.

A TLS server offered to this is refused, whatever it presents.

pub fn boat_ca(pem: &[u8]) -> Result<Self, ClientError>

Trust only servers whose certificate the boat’s own authority signed.

pem is the authority’s certificate – boat-ca.crt, the public half. Several may be concatenated, which is what makes replacing an authority possible without taking every device out of service on the same afternoon: carry both for one season, then drop the old one.

Errors

If the PEM holds no certificate at all. A file that was truncated, or a private key handed over by mistake, has to fail here rather than produce a client that trusts nothing and blames the network.

pub fn is_plaintext(&self) -> bool

Whether anything is trusted, i.e. whether TLS can succeed at all.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Trust

fn clone(&self) -> Trust

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Trust

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Says how much is trusted, never what. A certificate is not a secret, but a log line full of DER helps nobody read a failure.
