select Method

Filters a selection of keys from the keyring using a template.

Syntax

def select(filter: str, secret_only: bool, max_count: int) -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to get a list of keys that satisfy the Filter criteria. The filter should follow the "Name=Value" format, where Name can be one of the following: userid, fp, fingerprint, and keyid.

Set SecretOnly to True to only search for secret keys. MaxCount allows to limit the number of keys returned.

Once the method completes, the keys that match the criteria will be available in selected_public_keys and selected_secret_keys properties.
