Certificate

public final class Certificate : TokenObject

Class that describes a certificate object. Inherits from TokenObject.

  • Returns the subject name of the certificate.

    Note:

    The string is extracted from the last (most specific) occurrence of common name field. If no such field is defined, the implementation falls back on the first organizational unit name field, or the first organization name field, or the first email address field (in this order).

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getSubject() -> String

    Return Value

    The subject name of the certificate.

  • Returns the issuer name of the certificate.

    Note:

    The string is obtained by using the same rules as for Certificate.getSubject().

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getIssuer() -> String

    Return Value

    The issuer name of the certificate.

  • Returns the certificate start of validity date.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getNotBefore() -> String

    Return Value

    Start of validity date, given as a ISO-8601 string.

  • Returns the certificate end of validity date.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getNotAfter() -> String

    Return Value

    End of validity date, given as a ISO-8601 string.

  • Fetch the certificate serial number.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getSerial(completionHandler: @escaping (_ serial: String?, _ error: NSError?) -> Void)

    Parameters

    completionHandler

    The completion handler block to be called as soon as the serial number is retrieved.

    • serial String?: The serial number of the certificate.
    • error NSError: nil if the serial number is retrieved successfully; otherwise an error encapsulates the reason of failure.

    Note

    The completion handler is executed on the same type of DispatchQueue as in the calling code.

  • Gets the SecCertificate object, created from current Certificate.

    Example

    func addCertificateToKeychain(certificate: Certificate) {
    certificate.getSecCertificate { secCertificate, error in
        if let error = error {
            print("fail to get SecCertificate " + error.localizedDescription)
        }
        else {
            SecCertificateAddToKeychain(secCertificate, nil)
        }
    }
}

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func getSecCertificate(completionHandler: @escaping (_ secCertificate: SecCertificate?, _ error: NSError?) -> Void)

    Parameters

    completionHandler

    The completion handler block to be called as soon as the SecCertificate is created. It takes the following parameters:

    • secCertificate SecCertificate?: The created SecCertificate object.
    • error NSError?: nil if the operation was completed successfully; otherwise an error encapsulates the reason of failure.

    Note

    The completion handler is executed on the same type of DispatchQueue as in the calling code.
