Expose minutiae details about sourceafis-java HOT 7 CLOSED

You can parse the serialized template:

There is also a library that does the parsing for you (undocumented at the moment):

And there's even a library that does the visualization for you (undocumented too):

Template serialization/deserialization is fast, especially with the new CBOR format. Only feature extraction is expensive.

That is good to know that the serialization is fast. But we still have to turn around and re-read it back from the serialized template.. Is there a reason that the template information could not be exposed to avoid that second round trip step? It also makes our code brittle if the template form changes we have to update our code that re-reads it. Exposing the details via the API would shield us from that without breaking the functions if the exposed object is read-only.

Perhaps the need is moot also if I can figure out how to get the information they appear to be desiring from the transparency.

Thank you Robert.

Even API of the transparency library is subject to change with every release. There's a roadmap for stable API for minutia access/editing, so this might be available in the future.
