config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
do_action Method

def do_action(action_id: str, action_params: str) -> str: ...
Remarks
do_action is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.
The unique identifier (case insencitive) of the action is provided in the ActionID parameter.
ActionParams contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....
encrypt Method
Encrypts an XML document.
Syntax
def encrypt() -> None: ...
Remarks
Call this method to encrypt an XML document.
The class could be used to encrypt the SOAP message as well.

on_error Event
Information about errors during signing.
Syntax
class XMLEncryptorErrorEventParams(object): @property def error_code() -> int: ... @property def description() -> str: ... # In class XMLEncryptor: @property def on_error() -> Callable[[XMLEncryptorErrorEventParams], None]: ... @on_error.setter def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[XMLEncryptorErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
Remarks
The event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during signing.
ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error.
on_format_element Event
Reports the XML element that is currently being processed.
Syntax
class XMLEncryptorFormatElementEventParams(object): @property def start_tag_whitespace() -> str: ... @start_tag_whitespace.setter def start_tag_whitespace(value) -> None: ... @property def end_tag_whitespace() -> str: ... @end_tag_whitespace.setter def end_tag_whitespace(value) -> None: ... @property def level() -> int: ... @property def path() -> str: ... @property def has_child_elements() -> bool: ... # In class XMLEncryptor: @property def on_format_element() -> Callable[[XMLEncryptorFormatElementEventParams], None]: ... @on_format_element.setter def on_format_element(event_hook: Callable[[XMLEncryptorFormatElementEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
Remarks
Path and Level specify the path to the XML element being processed and its nesting level, respectively.
HasChildElements specify if processed XML element has child elements.
Among other purposes, this event may be used to add whitespace formatting before or after a particular element in the signature.
on_format_text Event
Reports XML text that is currently being processed.
Syntax
class XMLEncryptorFormatTextEventParams(object): @property def text() -> str: ... @text.setter def text(value) -> None: ... @property def text_type() -> int: ... @property def level() -> int: ... @property def path() -> str: ... # In class XMLEncryptor: @property def on_format_text() -> Callable[[XMLEncryptorFormatTextEventParams], None]: ... @on_format_text.setter def on_format_text(event_hook: Callable[[XMLEncryptorFormatTextEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
Remarks
TextType parameter specifies the type of the XML text (normal or Base64-encoded) that is stored in the element; Path and Level specify the path to the XML element and its nesting level.
Among other purposes, this event may be used to add whitespace formatting before or after a particular element in the signature.
on_notification Event
This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.
Syntax
class XMLEncryptorNotificationEventParams(object): @property def event_id() -> str: ... @property def event_param() -> str: ... # In class XMLEncryptor: @property def on_notification() -> Callable[[XMLEncryptorNotificationEventParams], None]: ... @on_notification.setter def on_notification(event_hook: Callable[[XMLEncryptorNotificationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
Remarks
The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the component. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.
The unique identifier of the event is provided in EventID parameter. EventParam contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the component, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.
XMLEncryptor Config Settings
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.XMLEncryptor Config Settings
The empty elements in the custom XML content act as a placeholder for auto-generated elements.
For example to change the order of ds:KeyValue and ds:X509Data auto-generated elements use the value: "<X509Data/><KeyValue/>"
Supported values are:
| "" | an empty string indicates the Document element |
| "#id" | indicates an XML element with specified Id |
| XPath expression | indicates an XML element selected using XPath expression. Use xpath_namespaces property to specify Prefixes and NamespaceURIs
For example: "/root/data[1]" - indicates the second "data" element under the document element with a name "root" "//ns1:data" - indicates a data element. "ns1" prefix should be defined in xpath_namespaces property |
| Node name | indicates an XML element selected using its NodeName.
For example: "data" - indicates an XML element with node name "data". |
Default value is "xenc". In this case "xenc:" prefix will be used.
Special values:
| "#default" or "" | indicates that the prefix will be omitted. |
| "#auto" | indicates that the prefix will be auto-detected based on the parent nodes. |
The empty elements in the custom XML content act as a placeholder for auto-generated elements.
For example to change the order of ds:KeyValue and ds:X509Data auto-generated elements use the value: "<X509Data/><KeyValue/>"
Default value is "ds". In this case "ds:" prefix will be used.
Special values:
| "#default" or "" | indicates that the prefix will be omitted. |
| "#auto" | indicates that the prefix will be auto-detected based on the parent nodes. |
Supported values:
| "" or "none" | no formatting (by default). | |
| "auto" | enables auto-formatting, equivalent to: "indent: 1; indent-char: tab; base64-max-length: 64; starting-level: node" |
| indent | specifies indentation level (default is 1) | |
| indent-char | specifies indentation character: "space" or "tab" (default) | |
| base64-max-length | specifies max length of base64 encoded data, such as signature value, certificate data and etc. (default is 64) | |
| starting-level | specifies starting indentation level: non-negative integer or "node" - detected based on parent node, or "root" - detected based on number of parent nodes to a document element (default is "node"). | |
| indent-before-main | specifies if whitespace characters should be inserted before a main (ds:Signature) element: "auto" (default), "yes" or "no" |
