GnuPG:...maryKey(3pm)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is the GnuPG:...maryKey(3pm) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally about GnuPG::PrimaryKey — GnuPG Primary Key Objects, bestie 🎀. That's the whole name vibe: primary key objects for GnuPG, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

# assumes a GnuPG::Interface object in $gnupg
my @keys = $gnupg->get_public_keys( 'ftobin' );

# or

my @keys = $gnupg->get_secret_keys( 'ftobin' );

# now GnuPG::PrimaryKey objects are in @keys

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So GnuPG::PrimaryKey objects are generally instantiated as GnuPG::PublicKey or GnuPG::SecretKey objects through various methods of GnuPG::Interface ✨. They embody various aspects of a GnuPG primary key — like, they're giving the key's whole personality in object form 💅.

This package inherits data members and object methods from GnuPG::Key, and that one is not described here — it's described in GnuPG::Key, bestie 🫶. Don't go looking for the full GnuPG::Key lore on this page, it lives over there.

👑 OBJECT DATA MEMBERS 👑

• user_ids — a list of GnuPG::UserId objects associated with this key 🦋.
• user_attributes — a list of GnuPG::UserAttribute objects associated with this key 🌸.
• subkeys — a list of GnuPG::SubKey objects associated with this key 🔑.
• local_id — WARNING: DO NOT USE. This used to mean GnuPG's local id for the key, but modern versions of GnuPG do not produce it. Expect this to be the empty string or undef 💀. Like, fr fr, do not use it.
• owner_trust — the scalar value GnuPG reports as the ownertrust for this key. See GnuPG's DETAILS file for details 👀.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

go peek at GnuPG::Key, GnuPG::UserId, GnuPG::SubKey, — yes bestie, that trailing comma is staying, it's part of the vibe 💅.
