◆ GetKeyRequest()

GetKeyRequest ( ... )

`Function: GetKeyRequest(init, mimeType, offlineKey, optionalParameters)`

Generate a key request

Generate a key request, used for request/response exchange between the app and a license server to obtain or release keys used to decrypt encrypted content. After the app has received the key request response from the license server, it should deliver to the response to the DRM instance using the method ProvideKeyResponse, to activate the keys.

Parameters

init	byte - Initialization bytes container-specific data, its meaning is interpreted based on the mime type provided in the mimeType parameter. It could contain, for example, the content ID, key ID or other data required in generating the key request.
mimeType	string - Type of media which is exchanged (e.g. "application/xml", "video/mp4")
offlineKey	bool - Specifies the type of the request. The request may be to acquire keys for Streaming or Offline content
optionalParameters	[opt] map - Will be included in the key request message to allow a client application to provide additional message parameters to the server

Returns: byte - The opaque key request data (challenge) which is send to key server

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 the init param must be a bytearray instead of byte.

◆ GetPropertyString()

GetPropertyString ( ... )

`Function: GetPropertyString(name)`

Request a system specific property value of the DRM system.

Parameters

Name	string - Name of the property to query

Returns: Value of the requested property

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

◆ ProvideKeyResponse()

ProvideKeyResponse ( ... )

`Function: ProvideKeyResponse(response)`

Provide a key response

When a key response is received from the license server, must be sent to the DRM instance by using provideKeyResponse. See also GetKeyRequest.

Parameters

response byte - Key data returned from the license server

Returns: A keySetId if the response is for an offline key requests which can be used later with restoreKeys, else return empty for streaming key requests.

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 the response argument must be a bytearray instead of byte.

◆ RemoveKeys()

RemoveKeys ( ... )

`Function: RemoveKeys()`

Removes all keys currently loaded in a session.

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

◆ RestoreKeys()

RestoreKeys ( ... )

`Function: RestoreKeys(keySetId)`

Restores session keys stored during previous ProvideKeyResponse call.

Parameters

keySetId string - Identifies the saved key set to restore. This value must never be null.

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

◆ SetPropertyString()

SetPropertyString ( ... )

`Function: SetPropertyString(name, value)`

Set a system specific property value in the DRM system.

Parameters

name	string - Name of the property. This value must never be null.
value	string - Value of the property to set. This value must never be null.

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

◆ Decrypt()

Decrypt ( ... )

`Function: Decrypt(cipherKeyId, input, iv)`

Decrypt an encrypted data by using session keys.

Parameters

cipherKeyId	byte - Encryption key id (provided from a service handshake)
input	byte - Cipher text to decrypt
iv	byte - Initialization vector of cipher text

Returns: Decrypted input data

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 all arguments need to be of type bytearray instead of byte.

◆ Encrypt()

Encrypt ( ... )

`Function: Encrypt(cipherKeyId, input, iv)`

Encrypt data by using session keys.

Parameters

cipherKeyId	byte - Encryption key id (provided from a service handshake)
input	byte - Encrypted text
iv	byte - Initialization vector of encrypted text

Returns: byte - Encrypted input data

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 all arguments need to be of type bytearray instead of byte.

◆ Sign()

Sign ( ... )

`Function: Sign(macKeyId, message)`

Generate a DRM encrypted signature for a text message.

Parameters

macKeyId	byte - HMAC key id (provided from a service handshake)
message	byte - Message text on which to base the signature

Returns: byte - Signature

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 all arguments need to be of type bytearray instead of byte.

◆ Verify()

Verify ( ... )

`Function: Verify(macKeyId, message, signature)`

Verify the validity of a DRM signature of a text message.

Parameters

macKeyId	byte - HMAC key id (provided from a service handshake)
message	byte - Message text on which the signature is based
signature	byte - The signature to verify

Returns: true when the signature is valid

v18 Python API changes: New function added.

v19 Python API changes: With python 3 for all arguments is needed to pass bytearray instead of byte.
