ChangePassphrase Method

Changes the passphrase of the current key.

Syntax

keymgr.changePassphrase(passphrase, [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

The Passphrase parameter specifies the new passphrase.

The key's passphrase is required for this operation and may be specified via KeyPassphrase or through the KeyPassphrase event.
