RecipientInfo Event

Fired for each recipient key of the encrypted message.

Syntax

openpgp.on('RecipientInfo', [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' is called when the 'RecipientInfo' event is emited.

function(e){ }

The argument 'e' has the following properties:

e.keyId
e.publicKeyAlgorithm

Remarks

This event fires when the Decrypt or DecryptAndVerifySignature method is called.

KeyId is the Id of the key used to encrypt the message. If a subkey was used to encrypt the message this will be the Id of that subkey. It is the hex-encoded, 4- or 8-byte Id of the key. It is the same as the last 4 or 8 bytes of the fingerprint. For instance:

BF52A0AB

This can be used to identify the correct key to specify in Keys. Keys can be set from within this event as this event fires directly before the decryption process begins.
