Example: Encrypt Outbound Emails with Your GnuPG Public Key

<?php
use \ParagonIE\GPGMailer\GPGMailer;
use \Zend\Mail\Message;
use \Zend\Mail\Transport\Sendmail;

// First, create a Zend\Mail message as usual:
$message = new Message;
$message->addTo('test@example.com', 'Test Email');
$message->setBody('Cleartext for now. Do not worry; this gets encrypted.');

// Instantiate GPGMailer:
$gpgMailer = new GPGMailer(
    new Sendmail(), 
    ['homedir' => '/homedir/containing/keyring']
);

// GPG public key for <security@paragonie.com> (fingerprint):
$fingerprint = '7F52D5C61D1255C731362E826B97A1C2826404DA';

// Finally:
$gpgMailer->send($message, $fingerprint);

If you're encrypting with a user provided public key (and they didn't tell you their fingerprint), do this instead:

<?php

/**
 * Output from: gpg --armor --export user@example.com
 *
 * This is our security team's GPG public key. You probably don't
 * want to use ours, as only we can decrypt the messages.
 *
 * @var string

Sign Emails with the Server's Private Key

Signed and Encrypted

To add signing, we pass the signing key to the third argument of the GPGMailer constructor.

<?php

use \ParagonIE\GPGMailer\GPGMailer;
use \Zend\Mail\Message;
use \Zend\Mail\Transport\Sendmail;

// First, create a Zend\Mail message as usual:
$message = new Message;
$message->addTo('test@example.com', 'Test Email');
$message->setBody('Cleartext for now. Do not worry; this gets encrypted.');

$signingKey = file_get_contents('tests/private.key');

// Instantiate GPGMailer:
$gpgMailer = new GPGMailer(
    new Sendmail(), 
    ['homedir' => '/homedir/containing/keyring'],
    $signingKey
);

// GPG public key for <security@paragonie.com> (fingerprint):
$fingerprint = '7F52D5C61D1255C731362E826B97A1C2826404DA';

// Finally:
$gpgMailer->send($message, $fingerprint);

Alternatively, we could define our constructor as above but then use setPrivateKey() like so:

$gpgMailer = new GPGMailer(
    new Sendmail(), 
    ['homedir' => '/homedir/containing/keyring']
);

$signingKey = file_get_contents('tests/private.key');
$gpgMailer->setPrivateKey($signingKey);

Signed, But Not Encrypted

Same as above, except we don't need to load the recipient's fingerprint and we use the sendUnencrypted() method instead.

<?php
use \ParagonIE\GPGMailer\GPGMailer;
use \Zend\Mail\Message;
use \Zend\Mail\Transport\Sendmail;

// First, create a Zend\Mail message as usual:
$message = new Message;
$message->addTo('test@example.com', 'Test Email');
$message->setBody('Cleartext for now. Do not worry; this gets encrypted.');

$signingKey = file_get_contents('tests/private.key');

$gpgMailer = new GPGMailer(
    new Sendmail(), 
    ['homedir' => '/homedir/containing/keyring'],
    $signingKey
);

$gpgMailer->sendUnencrypted($message);
