AddRevoker Method

Adds a designated revoker to the key.

Syntax

keymgr.addRevoker(userId, [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 adds a designated revoker to the selected Key. The UserId parameter specifies the revoker to add. The revoker's key must be present in the current keyring. Use this with caution: once added, a revoker cannot be removed. The key's passphrase is required for this operation and may be specified via KeyPassphrase or through the KeyPassphrase event.

The UserId format is:

FirstName LastName (Comment) <Email>

Not all values are required when selecting or generating a key, but at least FirstName or Email are required.
