See more Apple Keychain Examples

Encrypts MIME to creates S/MIME using a certificate found in the Apple Keychain. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

local cert = chilkat.Cert.new()

-- Load the certificate by the Subject Common Name
-- On MacOS and iOS, Chilkat will search the Keychain(s) for the matching certificate.
local success = cert:load_by_common_name("My Cert")
if not success then
    print(cert.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- Note: The private key is not needed for encryption.
-- Only the certificate is needed.

-- Create a simple MIME message to encrypt.
local mime = chilkat.Mime.new()
mime:add_header_field("Subject", "test")
mime:add_header_field("SomeHeader", "123")
mime:add_header_field("Content-Type", "text/plain")
mime:set_body("This is the body.")

print(mime:get_mime())
print("----")

-- Here's the MIME to be encrypted:

-- Subject: test
-- SomeHeader: 123
-- Content-Type: text/plain
--
-- This is the body.

-- -------------------------------------
-- Encrypt the MIME.
success = mime:encrypt(cert)
if not success then
    print(mime.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- Show the encrypted MIME (S/MIME)
print(mime:get_mime())

-- Save the encrypted MIME to a file.
mime:save_mime("./encrypted.mime")

-- Here's the S/MIME

-- Subject: test
