Name

msys.validate.dkim.sign — Sign a message using a DKIM signature

Synopsis

msys.validate.dkim.sign(msg, vctx, options);

msg: userdata, ec_message type
vctx: userdata, validate_context type
options: table, optional

Description

This function requires the dkim_sign module. msg is a mail message. vctx is the validation context. It signs the message msg using a DKIM signature. options is a table which allows the caller to override the following options:

  • base_domain/signing_domain override the default signing domain. These two parameters are synonyms for one another, each will have the same effect.

  • header_canon override the default header canonicalization setting.

  • body_canon override the default body canonicalization setting.

  • digest override the default digest setting.

  • headerlist override the default list of headers to sign.

  • identity override the default signing identity.

  • selector Override the default signing selector

  • keyfile override the default signing key file, which may be parameterized as defined in “dkim – DomainKeys Identified Mail Signatures”.

  • keybuf Override the default signing key. This hash entry must contain the PEM encoded private key to use for signing the messages. This must be a contiguous string, with no line breaks and no white space, without the BEGIN and END tags that are found in the key file itself. The format is similar to the format used to store the public key in the DKIM DNS records.

  • body_length_limit Override the default body_length_limit setting.

require("msys.validate.dkim"); local mod = {}; function mod:core_final_validation(msg, accept, vctx) local options = {}; options["base_domain"] = "example.com"; options["selector"] = "selector_name"; local domain = msys.validate.dkim.get_responsible_domain(); print("msys.validate.dkim.get_responsible_domain returns ", domain); print("msys.validate.dkim.sign returns ", msys.validate.dkim.sign(nil, nil, options)); local domains = msys.validate.dkim.get_domains(msg, vctx); print("msys.validate.dkim.get_domains returns ", domains); return msys.core.VALIDATE_CONT; end

msys.registerModule("test_dkim", mod);

Note
