JarCastingJava-HKP-Client Java OpenPGP HTTP Keyserver Protocol API Client
What is it?
This library provides an easy to use client library for interacting with a OpenPGP HTTP Keyserver Protocol (HKP) server.
How to use this library
This client library is released on Maven Central. Add a new dependency to your project's POM file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.sourcelab</groupId>
<artifactId>java-hkp-client</artifactId>
<version>0.2.0</version>
</dependency>
Example Code:
/*
* Create a new configuration object.
*
* This configuration also allows you to define some optional details on your connection,
* such as using an outbound proxy (authenticated or not), SSL client settings, etc..
*/
final Configuration.Builder configuration = Configuration.newBuilder()
.withKeyServerHost("http://pool.sks-keyservers.net");
/*
* Create an instance of HKPClient, passing your configuration.
*/
final HkpClient client = new HkpClient(configuration);
/*
* Making requests by calling the public methods available on HkpClient.
*
* For example, search for a key by Email:
*/
final SearchIndexResponse result = client
.search(new SearchRequest("[email protected]"));
/*
* or retrieve a key by KeyId.
*/
final Optional<PgpPublicKey> result = client.get(new GetRequest("0x92E73960FC59970DFB12F0146D712A2D27F74CE9"));
/*
* See HkpClient for other available operations.
*/
