Ability to store metadata with an identifier
Feature request description/rationale
I think it would be useful to have a way to store metadata about an identifier which is created beyond the alias, such as a profile picture, or user selected identifier theme etc.
The Organizer for contacts already has functionality for regex and chunking images, so I wonder if it could be generalized to organize both a contacts DB and an identifier metadata DB.
Or perhaps there's a better place for it.
This would be a useful feature. There has been an ongoing conversation about moving the contact management DB to be a separate library, or module within the KERIpy repo, sort of like a monorepo or at least a submodule of the KERIpy repo.
Such an identifier metadata module could be a generalized way to store and retrieve data about an identifier.
Yeah I remember that discussion. I am also OK temporarily doing this in KERIA and moving it to this separate library/monorepo afterwards if that makes things easier.
I would just like to know if the data should be kept closer to the Habitat record (in which case might need a keripy change), or if it's better to do it separately like the contact management DB.
Discussed in July 22, 2025 dev call. General agreement to include this functionality in KERIpy.
