NAME
Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey - a private key loaded in memory for DKIM
signing
SYNOPSIS
my $key1 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
File => "/path/to/private.key");
my $key2 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
Data => $base64);
# use the loaded key in a DKIM signing object
my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Signer->new(
Key => $key2,
);
CONSTRUCTOR
load() - loads a private key into memory
my $key1 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
File => "/path/to/private.key");
Loads the Base64-encoded key from the specified file.
my $key2 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(Data => $base64);
Loads the Base64-encoded key from a string already in memory.
my $key3 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(Cork => $openssl_object);
Creates a Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey wrapper object for the given OpenSSL
key object. The key object should be of type Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA.
METHODS
cork() - access the underlying OpenSSL key object
$openssl_object = $key->cork;
The returned object is of type Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA.
sign_digest()
Cryptographically sign the given message digest.
$key->sign_digest("SHA-1", sha1("my message text"));
The first parameter is the name of the digest: one of "SHA-1",
"SHA-256".
The second parameter is the message digest as a binary string.
The result should be the signed digest as a binary string.
