WS Security XML Certificate signing for Ruby

## Installation

```bash
gem install signer
```

## Usage

```ruby
require "signer"

signer = Signer.new(File.read("example.xml"))
signer.cert = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(File.read("cert.pem"))
signer.private_key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.read("key.pem"), "password")

signer.document.xpath("//u:Timestamp", { "u" => "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" }).each do |node|
  signer.digest!(node)
end

signer.document.xpath("//a:To", { "a" => "http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing" }).each do |node|
  signer.digest!(node)
end

signer.sign!(:security_token => true)

signer.to_xml
```

## Usage with Savon

```ruby
client = Savon::Client.new do |wsdl, http|
  wsdl.document = "..."
  wsdl.endpoint = "..."
end

response = client.request(:search_documents) do
  soap.version = 2

## Different signature and digest algorithms support

You can change digest algorithms used for both node digesting and signing. Default for both is SHA1. Currently __SHA1__ `:sha1`, __SHA256__ `:sha256`, and __GOST R 34.11-94__ `:gostr3411` are supported out of the box.

```ruby
signer.digest_algorithm           = :sha256 # Set algorithm for node digesting
signer.signature_digest_algorithm = :sha256 # Set algorithm for message digesting for signing
```

You can provide you own digest support by passing in these methods a `Hash` with `:id` and `:digester` keys. In `:id` should be a string for XML `//Reference/DigestMethod[Algorithm]`, in `:digester` should be a Ruby object, compatible by interface with `OpenSSL::Digest` class, at least it should respond to `digest` and `reset` methods.

Signature algorithm is dependent from keypair used for signing and can't be changed. Usually it's __RSA__. Currently gem recognizes __GOST R 34.10-2001__ certificates and sets up a XML identifier for it. If used signature algorithm and signature digest doesn't corresponds with XML identifier, you can change identifier with `signature_algorithm_id` method.

Please note, that these settings will be changed or reset on certificate assignment, please change them after setting certificate!

__NOTE__: To sign XMLs with __GOST R 34.10-2001__, you need to have Ruby compiled with patches from https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9830 and correctly configured OpenSSL (see https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/engines/ccgost/README.gost)

## Miscellaneous

Every new instance of signer has Nokogiri `noblanks` set as default in process of parsing xml file. If you need to disable it, pass optional argument `noblanks: false`.

```ruby
Signer.new(File.read("example.xml"), noblanks: false)
```

Available options for the `sign!` method:
  * [:security_token] - Serializes certificate in DER format, encodes it with Base64 and inserts it within a `BinarySecurityToken` tag

If you need to digest a `BinarySecurityToken` tag, you need to construct it yourself **before** signing.

```ruby
signer.digest!(signer.binary_security_token_node) # Constructing tag and digesting it
signer.sign! # No need to pass a :security_token option, as we already constructed and inserted this node
```

* [:inclusive_namespaces] - Array of namespace prefixes which definitions should be added to signed info node during canonicalization

If you need `Signature` tags to be in explicit namespace (say, `<ds:Signature>`) instead of to be in implicit default namespace you can specify next option:

```ruby
signer.ds_namespace_prefix = 'ds'
```

If you need to use canonicalization with inclusive namespaces you can pass array of namespace prefixes in `:inclusive_namespaces` option in both `digest!` and `sign!` methods.

* [:issuer_serial] - flag to include a `X509Data` node to include information from a `X509Certificate`
  * [:issuer_in_security_token] - flag to include the `X509Data` inside a `SecurityTokenReference` element
