SignFile Method

Signs a file.

Syntax

pgpwriter.signFile(sourceFile, destFile, detached, [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

Use this method to sign a file and store the signed message in another file.

Use SigningKeys to provide the signing keys.

Please note that you might need to provide a passphrase to decrypt your signing key. This can be done via KeyPassphraseNeeded event, or by assigning the passphrase to the key object's Passphrase property.
