Revision `05` of the Stateless OpenPGP Protocol specification introduced the concept of profiles for
|
||||||
|
certain operations.
|
||||||
|
The key generation feature is the first operation to make use of profiles to specify different key algorithms.
|
||||||
|
To set a profile, simply call `profile(String profileName)` and pass in one of the available profile identifiers.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To explore, which profiles are available, refer to the dedicated [section](#explore-profiles).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The default profile used by `pgpainless-sop` is called `draft-koch-eddsa-for-openpgp-00`.
|

If this profile is used, the resulting OpenPGP secret key will consist of a certification-capable 256-bits

Another profile defined by `pgpainless-sop` is `rfc4880`, which changes the key generation behaviour such that
|
||||||
|
the resulting key is a single 4096-bit RSA key capable of certifying, signing and encrypting.

You can modify the behaviour of the encrypt operation by switching between different profiles via the
|
||||||
|
`profile(String profileName)` method.
|
||||||
|
At the time of writing, the only available profile for this operation is `rfc4880` which applies encryption

|
as defined in [rfc4880](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4880).

### Explore Profiles
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Certain operations allow modification of their behaviour by selecting between different profiles.
|
||||||
|
An example for this is the `generateKey()` operation, where different profiles result in different algorithms used
|
||||||
|
during key generation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To explore, which profiles are supported by a certain operation, you can use the `listProfiles()` operation.
|
||||||
|
For example, this is how you can get a list of profiles supported by the `generateKey()` operation:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```java
|
||||||
|
List<Profile> profiles = sop.listProfiles().subcommand("generate-key");
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
:::{note}
|
||||||
|
As you can see, the argument passed into the `subcommand()` method must match the operation name as defined in the
|
||||||
|
[Stateless OpenPGP Protocol specification](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dkg-openpgp-stateless-cli/).
|
||||||
|
:::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At the time of writing (the latest revision of the SOP spec is 06), only `generate-key` and `encrypt` accept profiles.
