Help: Encrypting and Decrypting ASCII armor PGP Messages with golang.org/x/crypto/openpgp

[Samuel Lorch]

Hi,

i have been trying to decrypt and encrypt ASCII armor PGP Messages that i receive and send to a API.

I Wrote a function for decrypting messages and another one for encrypting messages. The Decrypting function Works and i can decrypt the API's messages. But My encrypt function Seems to be broken as Neither the API or my decrypt function can decrypt the Messages encrypted by my encrypt function.

Decrypting the encrypted messages from my encrypt function always result in the following error:

"Error reading message: openpgp: unsupported feature: unknown SymmetricallyEncrypted version"

I have uploaded a example to the Go Play Ground : https://play.golang.org/p/JhhZ4xWWYvn

Any help is Appreciated.

There is only a small change I had to do to get it to encrypt and decrypt:

inside your encryptMessage() func, change:

_, err = encryptorWriter.Write([]byte(message))

//messageReader := bytes.NewReader([]byte(message))

//_, err = io.Copy(encoderWriter, messageReader)

using the Write() method vs io.Copy works

Also, you don't need the chunk about the private key in the encrypt function
