(Go) Create CMS (PKCS7) Detached MIME Signature

Demonstrates how to add a CMS detached signature to MIME.

Chilkat Go Downloads Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    mime := chilkat.NewMime()

    // Load a certificate w/ private key for signing.
    cert := chilkat.NewCert()
    success := cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/ecc256_12345.p12","12345")
    if success != true {
        fmt.Println(cert.LastErrorText())
        mime.DisposeMime()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        return
    }

    fmt.Println("Cert: ", cert.SubjectDN())

    // Create a simple MIME message to be signed:
    mime.AddHeaderField("Subject","This is a test")
    mime.AddHeaderField("MyCustomHeader","abc123")
    mime.SetContentType("text/plain")
    mime.SetBody("This is a plain-text body.")

    // Examine the MIME prior to signing:
    fmt.Println("--- MIME prior to signing ---")
    fmt.Println(*mime.GetMime())

    // The MIME prior to signing looks like this:

    // Subject: This is a test
    // MyCustomHeader: abc123
    // Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed
    // 
    // This is a plain-text body.

    // Use SHA256 as the hash algorithm in the CMS signature.
    mime.SetSigningHashAlg("SHA256")

    // Add a detached signature:
    success = mime.AddDetachedSignature(cert)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(mime.LastErrorText())
        mime.DisposeMime()
        cert.DisposeCert()
        return
    }

    // Examine the MIME with detached signature:
    fmt.Println("--- MIME with detached signature ---")
    fmt.Println(*mime.GetMime())
