Interact with a Pelican registry service

Synopsis

Interact with a Pelican registry service:

The namespace registry lies at the core of Pelican’s security model by serving as the central point for clients to fetch the public keys associated with namespaced resources. When origins wish to claim a namespace prefix in their federation, they securely associate the public key of their issuer with the namespace registry (many origins may act as their own issuer). Sometimes origins will provide additional OIDC metadata if the origins wish to be accessible to the OSDF’s caching infrastructure. Services wishing to validate the authenticity of a token from an issuer can then reference the namespace registry’s listed public key for that origin and verify that it was signed by the correct private key.
