Hi, Great project BTW.
I have possibly an interesting use case that I'm trying to solve.
I would like to validate a GPG signed message within CouchDB map/reduce (which
uses SpiderMonkey in an idempotent manner) using a fixed set of keys.
So far, I've gotten straight SpiderMonkey work for my needs, some of the
hurdles I ran into tho:
1. "navigator" object is used in an unchecked manner.
2. there's a jQuery dependency for messaging (which probably shouldn't
exist).
3. showMessage(text) function has no default implementation.
4. dependency upon HTML5's localStorage
FWIW: here's my sample code: https://gist.github.com/3036199
I was able to get around these deficiencies using some mock objects. But is
there a way for me to utilize the library without these? The first 3 issues I
ran into all seem like general bugs, and the dependency upon localStorage seems
like simple workarounds are available and could be handled.
I'm also not sure why I can't do this:
var keys = openpgp.read_publicKey(myArmoredKey);
var msgs = openpgp.read_message(myClearSignedMessage);
msgs[0].validateSignature(keys)
// msgs[0].validateSignature(keys[0]) // doesn't work either...
I seem to have to use the keys stored in the keyring, which is extra overhead
that I'd like to avoid since my keyring can't really be modified in my use case.
Also, I would like to encapsulate a bit more. Has anyone has utilized
OpenPGP.js from a CommonJS environment and can provide some advise before go
and start hacking on the source?
I think for my purposes it may just work by doing:
if (exports) {
exports.openpgp = openpgp;
}
But not entirely sure until I try...
Thanks,
- Jim
