GetClientCert Method

Populates the per-connection certificate object.

Syntax

kmipserver.getClientCert(connectionID, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method populates the certificate template/object received with the certificate generation request in GeneratedCert property.

Call this method from your BeforeGenerateCert event handler to populate the certificate template, as received in the request. It is still not late to alter the details of the certificate on this stage.

Call it from your AfterGenerateCert event handler to populate the certificate that has been generated.
