NAME
Mail::DKIM::Canonicalization::Base - base class for canonicalization
methods
VERSION
version 1.20200907
SYNOPSIS
# canonicalization results get output to STDOUT
my $method = new Mail::DKIM::Canonicalization::relaxed(
output_fh => *STDOUT,
Signature => $dkim_signature);
# add headers
$method->add_header("Subject: this is the subject\015\012");
$method->finish_header(Headers => \@all_headers);
# add body
$method->add_body("This is the body.\015\012");
$method->add_body("Another two lines\015\012of the body.\015\012");
$method->finish_body;
# this adds the signature to the end
$method->finish_message;
CONSTRUCTOR
Use the new() method of the desired canonicalization implementation
class to construct a canonicalization object. E.g.
my $method = new Mail::DKIM::Canonicalization::relaxed(
output_fh => *STDOUT,
Signature => $dkim_signature);
The constructors accept these arguments:
Signature
(Required) Provide the DKIM signature being constructed (if the
message is being signed), or the DKIM signature being verified (if
the message is being verified). The canonicalization method either
writes parameters to the signature, or reads parameters from the
signature (e.g. the h= tag).
output
If specified, the canonicalized message will be passed to this
object with the PRINT method.
output_digest
If specified, the canonicalized message will be added to this
digest. (Uses the add() method.)
output_fh
If specified, the canonicalized message will be written to this
file handle.
If none of the output parameters are specified, then the canonicalized
message is appended to an internal buffer. The contents of this buffer
can be accessed using the result() method.
METHODS
add_body() - feeds part of the body into the canonicalization
$method->add_body("This is the body.\015\012");
$method->add_body("Another two lines\015\012of the body.\015\012");
The body should be fed one or more "lines" at a time. I.e. do not feed
part of a line.
finish_header() - called when the header has been completely parsed
$method->finish_header(Headers => \@all_headers);
Formerly the canonicalization object would only get the header data
through successive invocations of add_header(). However, that required
the canonicalization object to store a copy of the entire header so
that it could choose the order in which headers were fed to the digest
object. This is inefficient use of memory, since a message with many
signatures may use many canonicalization objects and each
canonicalization object has its own copy of the header.
The headers array is an array of one element per header field, with the
headers not processed/canonicalized in any way.
result()
my $result = $method->result;
If you did not specify an object or handle to send the output to, the
result of the canonicalization is stored in the canonicalization method
itself, and can be accessed using this method.
