getIdentities

java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<java.security.PublicKey,java.lang.String>> getIdentities()
                                                                                                         throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException

sign

java.util.Map.Entry<java.lang.String,byte[]> sign(SessionContext session,
                                                        java.security.PublicKey key,
                                                        java.lang.String algo,
                                                        byte[] data)
                                                 throws java.io.IOException

Parameters:

session - The current SessionContext

key - The PublicKey to use for signing

algo - Recommended signature algorithm - if null/empty then one will be selected based on the key type and/or signature factories. Note: even if specific algorithm specified, the implementation may disregard and choose another

data - Data to sign

Returns:

used algorithm + signed data - using the identity

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If failed to sign

resolveLocalIdentity

default java.security.KeyPair resolveLocalIdentity(java.security.PublicKey key)

Used for reporting client-side public key authentication via agent

Parameters:

key - The PublicKey that is going to be used

Returns:

The KeyPair identity for it - if available - null otherwise

addIdentity

void addIdentity(java.security.KeyPair key,
                 java.lang.String comment,
                 SshAgentKeyConstraint... constraints)
          throws java.io.IOException

Adds a key to the agent.

Parameters:

key - KeyPair to add

comment - to associate with the key

constraints - SshAgentKeyConstraints for this key to pass on to the agent

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error in the communication with the agent occurred, or the agent did not return a reply indicating successful addition of the key

removeIdentity

void removeIdentity(java.security.PublicKey key)
             throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException

removeAllIdentities

void removeAllIdentities()
                  throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException
