Could be potentially nice for fediverse server testing, as more implementations make the jump to final RFC 9421 HTTP signatures.

Hi @julian, you mean my pull request into peertube/http-signature? Have at it. Working with the test framework that the original library is annoying.
Recently I found that I made a mistake requiring
algsignature parameter in my RFC 9421 implementation, which I carried over there, but that node library also requires it. -

@mradcliffe@nokoto.org on thanks, I will take a look at your fork and see if I am able to integrate it into NodeBB. Will DM you shortly.

When last I left off, I made a pull request to
peertube/http-signaturelibrary try to help the JavaScript ecosystem reach RFC 9421 parity while being backwards-compatible with cavage-12 draft implementations. There has not been any traction on this yet. Maybe because PeerTube has abandoned its own use of the library.So our current ecosystem state is the following:
- PeerTube uses
misskey-dev/node-http-message-signatureslibrary and owns the defacto unmaintainedpeertube/http-signaturelibrary. - Misskey and the rest of the ‘keyverse use
peertube/http-signaturelibrary and Misskey owns the defacto...
@mradcliffe Does your instance support RFC-9421 verification?

@silverpill It should, but it isn’t node.js based.
I wanted to help the node.js ecosystem by making
peertube/http-signaturebackwards-compatible for both draft and RFC-9421.Although I apologize that I am requiring

@mradcliffe@nokoto.org no problem, I'll email you tomorrow about this
