APK Lineage Signer

ENTERPRISE

The signer has the fully qualified class name: org.signserver.module.apk.signer.ApkLineageSigner

Overview

The APK Lineage Signer supports Android Package Kit (APK) key rotation. Key rotation supports signing with a new key by rolling over to the new key using a lineage file.

The APK Lineage Signer allows you to print the content of an APK lineage file and update it, that is, changing the capabilities of one of the signers. This requires that the APK Lineage Signer points to the APK Signer you want to modify in the lineage file (by setting the OTHER_SIGNERS property). The lineage file is then sent in together with the updated capability options and returns an updated lineage file.

Note that this signer is configured without a crypto token, as no crypto token is used from this signer but instead from the other signers.

For more information on Android signing and how to set it up in SignServer, see Setting up Android Signing.
