I am receiving the following error when trying to generate a new key
pair using the OpenPGP engine.
GPGME: Not implemented
I believe this is because your module should be passing Null for the
Public and Secret arguments to gpgme_op_genkey per the gpgme documentation:
"GnuPG does not support PUBLIC and SECRET, they should be `NULL'.
GnuPG will generate a key pair and add it to the standard key
ring. The fingerprint of the generated key is available with
`gpgme_op_genkey_result'."
I am not familiar with Perl XS otherwise I would supply a patch to fix
this.
Thank you for a great and useful module.
Below find my test script:
#!/usr/bin/perl;
use strict;
use warnings;
use Crypt::GpgME;
use Data::Dumper;
sub _new_init_gpg {
my $ctx = Crypt::GpgME->new;
my $file_name = '/usr/bin/gpg';
my $home_dir = '/tmp/gpg_test';
$ctx->set_engine_info('OpenPGP', $file_name, $home_dir);
return $ctx;
}
my $parms = '
<GnupgKeyParms format="internal">
Key-Type: DSA
Key-Length: 1024
Subkey-Type: ELG-E
Subkey-Length: 2048
Name-Real: Joe Tester
Name-Comment: with stupid passphrase
Name-Email: joe@foo.bar
Expire-Date: 0
Passphrase: abc
</GnupgKeyParms>';
my $ctx = _new_init_gpg;
my ($result, $pubkey_fh, $seckey_fh);
($result, $pubkey_fh, $seckey_fh) = $ctx->genkey($parms);
print "$result";
