File-backed key provider for Swarmauri

---

Swarmauri File Key Provider

FileKeyProvider is a file-backed implementation of the KeyProviderBase interface. It persists each key beneath a keys/<kid>/v<version>/ directory, captures metadata in meta.json, and exports public material in PEM or JWK form. The provider supports the same lifecycle semantics as the in-memory providers, but every operation is durable on disk.

Highlights

• Generate symmetric AES-256-GCM keys and asymmetric Ed25519, X25519, RSA (OAEP/PSS), or ECDSA (P-256) key material.
• Import existing keys while preserving private material when allowed by the selected ExportPolicy.
• Rotate versions in-place, destroy versions or entire keys, and list historical versions stored on disk.
• Publish public material as individual JWKs or aggregate JWKS documents and expose HKDF and random byte helpers.

Installation

Choose the tool that matches your workflow:

# pip
pip install swarmauri_keyprovider_file

# Poetry
poetry add swarmauri_keyprovider_file

# uv
uv add swarmauri_keyprovider_file

Usage

import asyncio
from tempfile import TemporaryDirectory

from swarmauri_keyprovider_file import FileKeyProvider
from swarmauri_core.key_providers.types import (
    ExportPolicy,
    KeyAlg,
    KeyClass,
    KeySpec,
)
from swarmauri_core.crypto.types import KeyUse


async def run_example() -> str:
    with TemporaryDirectory() as tmp:
        provider = FileKeyProvider(tmp)
        spec = KeySpec(
            klass=KeyClass.symmetric,
            alg=KeyAlg.AES256_GCM,
            uses=(KeyUse.ENCRYPT,),
            export_policy=ExportPolicy.SECRET_WHEN_ALLOWED,
        )
        created = await provider.create_key(spec)
        provider2 = FileKeyProvider(tmp)
        loaded = await provider2.get_key(created.kid, include_secret=True)
        print(f"Loaded key: {loaded.kid}")


asyncio.run(run_example())

FileKeyProvider is asynchronous—every lifecycle method returns a KeyRef. Use include_secret=True when retrieving keys that allow private material export so symmetric key bytes are loaded from disk.

Entry Point

The provider registers under the swarmauri.key_providers entry point as FileKeyProvider.
