<title>Adding a User ID</title>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<p>By comparison to creating primary keys and subkeys, adding a new user ID to an existing key
|
|
is much simpler. The method used to do this is <codeph>key_add_uid</codeph> and the only
|
|
arguments it takes are for the <codeph>key</codeph> and the new <codeph>uid</codeph>.</p>
|
|

<codeblock id="adduid-1" outputclass="language-python">import gpg
|
|
|
|
c = gpg.Context()
|
|
c.home_dir = "~/.gnupg-dm"
|
|
|
|
dmfpr = "177B7C25DB99745EE2EE13ED026D2F19E99E63AA"
|
|
key = c.get_key(dmfpr, secret=True)
|
|
uid = "Danger Mouse <danger.mouse@secret.example.net>"
|
|
|
|
c.key_add_uid(key, uid)
|

</codeblock>

<p>Unsurprisingly the result of this is:</p>
