## Initializing the signer
First, initialize the master seed.
```text
#./signer init
WARNING!
The signer is alpha software, and not yet publically released. This software has _not_ been audited, and there
are no guarantees about the workings of this software. It may contain severe flaws. You should not use this software
unless you agree to take full responsibility for doing so, and know what you are doing.
TLDR; THIS IS NOT PRODUCTION-READY SOFTWARE!
Enter 'ok' to proceed:
>ok
A master seed has been generated into /home/martin/.signer/secrets.dat
This is required to be able to store credentials, such as :
* Passwords for keystores (used by rule engine)
* Storage for javascript rules
* Hash of rule-file
You should treat that file with utmost secrecy, and make a backup of it.
NOTE: This file does not contain your accounts. Those need to be backed up separately!
```
(for readability purposes, we'll remove the WARNING printout in the rest of this document)
## Creating rules
Now, you can create a rule-file.
```javascript
function ApproveListing(){
return "Approve"
}
```
Get the `sha256` hash....
```text
#sha256sum rules.js
6c21d1737429d6d4f2e55146da0797782f3c0a0355227f19d702df377c165d72 rules.js
```
...And then `attest` the file:
```text
#./signer attest 6c21d1737429d6d4f2e55146da0797782f3c0a0355227f19d702df377c165d72
INFO [02-21|12:14:38] Ruleset attestation updated sha256=6c21d1737429d6d4f2e55146da0797782f3c0a0355227f19d702df377c165d72
```
At this point, we then start the signer with the rule-file:
```text
#./signer --rules rules.json
INFO [02-21|12:15:18] Using CLI as UI-channel
INFO [02-21|12:15:18] Loaded 4byte db signatures=5509 file=./4byte.json
INFO [02-21|12:15:18] Could not load rulefile, rules not enabled file=rulefile
DEBUG[02-21|12:15:18] FS scan times list=35.335µs set=5.536µs diff=5.073µs

INFO [02-21|12:15:18] Audit logs configured file=audit.log
INFO [02-21|12:15:18] HTTP endpoint opened url=http://localhost:8550
------- Signer info -------
* extapi_http : http://localhost:8550
* extapi_ipc : <nil>
* extapi_version : 2.0.0
* intapi_version : 1.2.0
```
Any list-requests will now be auto-approved by our rule-file.
## Under the hood
While doing the operations above, these files have been created:
```text
#ls -laR ~/.signer/
/home/martin/.signer/:
total 16
drwx------ 3 martin martin 4096 feb 21 12:14 .
drwxr-xr-x 71 martin martin 4096 feb 21 12:12 ..
drwx------ 2 martin martin 4096 feb 21 12:14 43f73718397aa54d1b22
-rwx------ 1 martin martin 256 feb 21 12:12 secrets.dat
/home/martin/.signer/43f73718397aa54d1b22:
total 12
drwx------ 2 martin martin 4096 feb 21 12:14 .
drwx------ 3 martin martin 4096 feb 21 12:14 ..
-rw------- 1 martin martin 159 feb 21 12:14 config.json
#cat /home/martin/.signer/43f73718397aa54d1b22/config.json
{"ruleset_sha256":{"iv":"6v4W4tfJxj3zZFbl","c":"6dt5RTDiTq93yh1qDEjpsat/tsKG7cb+vr3sza26IPL2fvsQ6ZoqFx++CPUa8yy6fD9Bbq41L01ehkKHTG3pOAeqTW6zc/+t0wv3AB6xPmU="}}
```
In `~/.signer`, the `secrets.dat` file was created, containing the `master_seed`.
The `master_seed` was then used to derive a few other things:
- `vault_location` : in this case `43f73718397aa54d1b22` .
- Thus, if you use a different `master_seed`, another `vault_location` will be used that does not conflict with each other.
- Example: `signer --signersecret /path/to/afile ...`
- `config.json` which is the encrypted key/value storage for configuration data, containing the key `ruleset_sha256`.
## Adding credentials
In order to make more useful rules; sign transactions, the signer needs access to the passwords needed to unlock keystores.
```text
#./signer addpw 0x694267f14675d7e1b9494fd8d72fefe1755710fa test
INFO [02-21|13:43:21] Credential store updated key=0x694267f14675d7e1b9494fd8d72fefe1755710fa
```
## More advanced rules
Now let's update the rules to make use of credentials
```javascript
function ApproveListing(){
return "Approve"
}
function ApproveSignData(r){
if( r.address.toLowerCase() == "0x694267f14675d7e1b9494fd8d72fefe1755710fa")
{
if(r.message.indexOf("bazonk") >= 0){
return "Approve"
}
return "Reject"
}
// Otherwise goes to manual processing
}
```
In this example,
* any requests to sign data with the account `0x694...` will be
* auto-approved if the message contains with `bazonk`,
* and auto-rejected if it does not.
* Any other signing-requests will be passed along for manual approve/reject.
..attest the new file
```text
#sha256sum rules.js
2a0cb661dacfc804b6e95d935d813fd17c0997a7170e4092ffbc34ca976acd9f rules.js
#./signer attest 2a0cb661dacfc804b6e95d935d813fd17c0997a7170e4092ffbc34ca976acd9f
INFO [02-21|14:36:30] Ruleset attestation updated sha256=2a0cb661dacfc804b6e95d935d813fd17c0997a7170e4092ffbc34ca976acd9f
```
And start the signer:
```
#./signer --rules rules.js
INFO [02-21|14:41:56] Using CLI as UI-channel
INFO [02-21|14:41:56] Loaded 4byte db signatures=5509 file=./4byte.json

* extapi_ipc : <nil>
INFO [02-21|14:41:56] error occurred during execution error="ReferenceError: 'OnSignerStartup' is not defined"
```
And then test signing, once with `bazonk` and once without:
```
#curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data "{\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"method\":\"account_sign\",\"params\":[\"0x694267f14675d7e1b9494fd8d72fefe1755710fa\",\"0x$(xxd -pu <<< ' bazonk baz gaz')\"],\"id\":67}" http://localhost:8550/
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":67,"result":"0x93e6161840c3ae1efc26dc68dedab6e8fc233bb3fefa1b4645dbf6609b93dace160572ea4ab33240256bb6d3dadb60dcd9c515d6374d3cf614ee897408d41d541c"}
#curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data "{\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"method\":\"account_sign\",\"params\":[\"0x694267f14675d7e1b9494fd8d72fefe1755710fa\",\"0x$(xxd -pu <<< ' bonk baz gaz')\"],\"id\":67}" http://localhost:8550/
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":67,"error":{"code":-32000,"message":"Request denied"}}
```
Meanwhile, in the signer output:
```text
INFO [02-21|14:42:41] Op approved
INFO [02-21|14:42:56] Op rejected
```
The signer also stores all traffic over the external API in a log file. The last 4 lines shows the two requests and their responses:
```text
#tail audit.log -n 4
