Update DID

[vongohren]

It is not clear to me how you do an update on the DID doc.
Is it basically just new ION.DID, with same did doc, but with some changes to f.ex service endpoint?

Or any other way?

Updates are supported in ION the network, but the SDK/lib doesn't have those op generation routines yet - we are working to add these now.

@vongohren, while waiting on support for DID updates at the ion-tools and ion-sdk level which should be coming in the next couple of weeks, the Sidetree REST API already supports all the available operations (create/update/recover/deactivate).

Great! Thanks for the update @csuwildcat @thehenrytsai! Will leave this open until its covered, so that anyone else coming inn will see this

How is this going along?

@csuwildcat - I noticed the pull request in ion-sdk for update/recovery/deactivate is merged into the main branch there, but without a new version deployed. Is it waiting on further changes/testing before that can happen?

Anything we can do to help get it over the line?

[csuwildcat]

I'll try to get it hooked into the top-level lib before Thursday this week.

I would love to try this out next week, when do I know its updated?

[csuwildcat]

@vongohren @codi0 I almost have this done - code is ready, just testing it and doing docs for release. I'll have it by end of week, promise!

Hey folks, just pushed out a build with support for all the rest of the DID operations: https://github.com/decentralized-identity/ion-tools#generateoperationtype-contents-commit-async
