Library vks_automation

Use the Verifying Keyserver Interface Client and implement the automation user stories in this Epic

Build

To build give the prefix, where it searches for the two libraries it depends on (pEpEngine and vks_client) – in this example, they’re installed in $HOME

zig build --search-prefix $HOME

To install give the prefix, where it has to install it

zig build --search-prefix $HOME --prefix $HOME install

To build the documentation use:

zig build --search-prefix $HOME docs

Usage in p≡p apps

To use this in p≡p apps there are four things to implement:

When Account settings change

After Account settings change call:

vks_update_keys_of_own_identities(session);

When a message goes out

When p≡p Sync updates keys or a user message goes out then myself() was called; after that call:

vks_update_keys_of_own_identities(session);

When a message comes in

If a verification mail from keyserver@keys.openpgp.org arrives call:

vks_deliver_verification_mail_async(own_address, maildata);

When the user clicks "Search Keyserver" on an identity

vks_retrieve_key_for_identity(session, identity);

In an outgoing mail draft when an identity is not at least yellow

vks_update_identity_if_key_from_keyserver(session, identity);

This does nothing if the former key was not downloaded, too.
