Group

Preparsers

Function

This preparser is able to decrypt files, which are encoded with PGP or GnuPG.

Configuration file

None. Configuration is done directly with a string in field Config file.

Description


This preparser is able to decrypt files, which are encoded with PGP or GnuPG. It does not need a configuration file but relies on a parameter string, which has to be defined in the field normally used to set the path to a configuration file.

Note: The PGP encryption can be done using the postexecuter PGPEncryption.

The string in field Additional parameters has the following structure:

<path-to-private-key-ring>;<passphrase>

If the message is also signed, the path to the public key must also be specified. For this case, use the following parameter string.

<path-to-private-key-ring>;<passphrase>;<path-to-public-key-ring>

Parameter Name

Description

path-to-private-key-ring

Path to the key ring file with the private key.

passphrase

Password for the protection of the keyrings.

path-to-public-key-ring

Path to the key ring file with the public key.
