Obtaining Key Properties (C/C++)

This topic describes how to obtain properties of a key. Before the operation, ensure that the key exists in HUKS.

How to Develop

  1. Set parameters.

    • keyAlias: key alias encapsulated in an OH_Huks_Blob struct. The maximum length of the key alias is 64 bytes.
    • paramSetIn: This parameter is reserved. Leave it empty.
    • paramSetOut: result set used to hold the key properties obtained. It is an object of the OH_Huks_ParamSet type. Ensure that there is enough memory for storing the key properties obtained.
  2. Use OH_Huks_GetKeyItemParamSet to obtain key properties.

  3. Check the return value. If the operation is successful, obtain the key properties from paramSetOut. If the operation fails, an error code is returned.

#include "huks/native_huks_api.h"
#include "huks/native_huks_param.h"
#include <string.h>
static napi_value GetKeyParamSet(napi_env env, napi_callback_info info)
{
    /* 1. Set the key alias. */
    const char *alias = "test_key";
    struct OH_Huks_Blob aliasBlob = { .size = (uint32_t)strlen(alias), .data = (uint8_t *)alias };
    /* Request memory for outParamSet. */
    struct OH_Huks_ParamSet *outParamSet = (struct OH_Huks_ParamSet *)malloc(512); // Request memory based on service requirements.
    if (outParamSet == nullptr) {
        return nullptr;
    }
    outParamSet->paramSetSize = 512;
    struct OH_Huks_Result ohResult;
    do {
        /* 2. Obtain the key properties. */
        ohResult = OH_Huks_GetKeyItemParamSet(&aliasBlob, nullptr, outParamSet);
        if (ohResult.errorCode != OH_HUKS_SUCCESS) {
            break;
        }
        /* 3. Read key properties from outParamSet. For example, obtain OH_HUKS_TAG_PURPOSE. */
        OH_Huks_Param *purposeParam = nullptr; // No memory needs to be requested. After the parameter is obtained, the pointer points to the memory address of the parameter in the parameter set.
        ohResult = OH_Huks_GetParam(outParamSet, OH_HUKS_TAG_PURPOSE, &purposeParam);
        if (ohResult.errorCode != OH_HUKS_SUCCESS) {
            break;
        }
    } while (0);
    OH_Huks_FreeParamSet(&outParamSet);
    napi_value ret;
    napi_create_int32(env, ohResult.errorCode, &ret);
    return ret;
