PublicKeySubkeyID Property

Contains a 8-byte subkey identifier.

Syntax

 pgpkeyring.getPublicKeySubkeyID(index, [callback])

Default Value

""

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 the getPublicKeySubkeyID([callback]) 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.

The callback for the setPublicKeySubkeyID([callback]) 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

Contains a 8-byte subkey identifier.

It is quite rare that IDs of two keys collide. If that happens, their fingerprints (SubkeyFP) can be used to distinguish between the keys. Please note that many PGP implementations show only 4 lowest bytes of the KeyID to the user.

The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PublicKeyCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type
