Django application to support digital credentials

mitol-django-digital-credentials

This is the Open Learning Django Digital Credentials app. Provides the following functionality:

• Data models:
  • DigitalCredentialRequest - a one-time use credential request that is bound to a courseware object and a learner
  • LearnerDID - a record of which DID(s) are bound to any given user. This guarantees we won't allow a DID to be used for a different user once bound.
  • DigitalCredential - a record of the signed digital credential, the courseware object, and the learner whom it is for
• Django admin UI for these models
• /credentials/request/<uuid>/ API for requesting credentials
  • Requires OAuth2 authentication provided by django-oauth-toolkit
