# +MessageVerifier+ makes it easy to generate and verify messages which are
# signed to prevent tampering.
#
# This is useful for cases like remember-me tokens and auto-unsubscribe links
# where the session store isn't suitable or available.
#
# Remember Me:
# cookies[:remember_me] = @verifier.generate([@user.id, 2.weeks.from_now])
#
# In the authentication filter:
#
# id, time = @verifier.verify(cookies[:remember_me])
# if Time.now < time
# self.current_user = User.find(id)
# end
#
# By default it uses Marshal to serialize the message. If you want to use
# another serialization method, you can set the serializer in the options
# hash upon initialization:
#
# @verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new('s3Krit', serializer: YAML)
#
# +MessageVerifier+ creates HMAC signatures using SHA1 hash algorithm by default.
# If you want to use a different hash algorithm, you can change it by providing
# +:digest+ key as an option while initializing the verifier:
#
# @verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new('s3Krit', digest: 'SHA256')
#
# === Confining messages to a specific purpose
#
# By default any message can be used throughout your app. But they can also be
# confined to a specific +:purpose+.
#
# token = @verifier.generate("this is the chair", purpose: :login)
#
# Then that same purpose must be passed when verifying to get the data back out:
#
# @verifier.verified(token, purpose: :login) # => "this is the chair"
# @verifier.verified(token, purpose: :shipping) # => nil
# @verifier.verified(token) # => nil
#
# @verifier.verify(token, purpose: :login) # => "this is the chair"
# @verifier.verify(token, purpose: :shipping) # => ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature
# @verifier.verify(token) # => ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature
#
# Likewise, if a message has no purpose it won't be returned when verifying with
# a specific purpose.
#
# token = @verifier.generate("the conversation is lively")
# @verifier.verified(token, purpose: :scare_tactics) # => nil
# @verifier.verified(token) # => "the conversation is lively"
#
# @verifier.verify(token, purpose: :scare_tactics) # => ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature
# @verifier.verify(token) # => "the conversation is lively"
#
# === Making messages expire
#
# By default messages last forever and verifying one year from now will still
# return the original value. But messages can be set to expire at a given
# time with +:expires_in+ or +:expires_at+.
#
# @verifier.generate(parcel, expires_in: 1.month)
# @verifier.generate(doowad, expires_at: Time.now.end_of_year)
#
# Then the messages can be verified and returned upto the expire time.
# Thereafter, the +verified+ method returns +nil+ while +verify+ raises
# <tt>ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature</tt>.
#
# === Rotating keys
#
# MessageVerifier also supports rotating out old configurations by falling
# back to a stack of verifiers. Call +rotate+ to build and add a verifier to
# so either +verified+ or +verify+ will also try verifying with the fallback.
#
# By default any rotated verifiers use the values of the primary
# verifier unless specified otherwise.
#
# You'd give your verifier the new defaults:
#
# verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new(@secret, digest: "SHA512", serializer: JSON)
#
# Then gradually rotate the old values out by adding them as fallbacks. Any message
# generated with the old values will then work until the rotation is removed.
#
# verifier.rotate old_secret # Fallback to an old secret instead of @secret.
# verifier.rotate digest: "SHA256" # Fallback to an old digest instead of SHA512.
# verifier.rotate serializer: Marshal # Fallback to an old serializer instead of JSON.
#
# Though the above would most likely be combined into one rotation:
#
# verifier.rotate old_secret, digest: "SHA256", serializer: Marshal
