Validate Method

Validates the key.

Syntax

pgpkeymanager.validate([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, data){ }

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

'data' is the value returned by the method.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

Call this method to validate signatures over the PGP key and all the subkeys.

Possible result:

pkvStrictlyValid0Strictly valid

pkvValid1Valid

pkvInvalid2Invalid

pkvFailure3Generic validation failure

pkvUnknown4Validity unknown
