Methods

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<Signer>

    Remarks

    If name is a certificate name, sign with the corresponding private key, and use the specified certificate name as KeyLocator.

    If name is a key name, sign with the specified private key. If a non-self-signed certificate exists for this key, use the certificate name as KeyLocator. Otherwise, use the key name as KeyLocator.

    If name is neither a certificate name nor a key name, it is interpreted as a subject name. A non-self-signed certificate of this subject name is preferred. If no such certificate exists, use any key of this subject name.

    If prefixMatch is true, name can also be interpreted as a prefix of the subject name.
