JavaScript Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Load Java KeyStore and Access Contents

See more Java KeyStore (JKS) Examples

Loads a Java keystore file and iterates over the contents. A Java keystore (.jks) file can contain one or more trusted root certificate entries and/or one or more private key entries. Each private key entry includes an associated certificate chain. JavaScript

var success = false;

//  This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

var jks = new CkJavaKeyStore();

//  Load the Java keystore from a file.  The JKS file password is used
//  to verify the keyed digest that is found at the very end of the keystore.
//  It verifies there has been no tampering with the file.
success = jks.LoadFile("jksFilePassword","/someDir/keyStore.jks");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(jks.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Find out how many of each type of entry:
var numTrustedCerts = jks.NumTrustedCerts;
var numPrivateKeys = jks.NumPrivateKeys;

var cert = new CkCert();
var alias;

//  For each trusted certificate, access it by getting
//  it as a cert object.  Also get the alias associated with the certificate.
console.log("Trusted Certs:");
var i = 0;

    success = jks.TrustedCertAt(i,cert);

}

var privKey = new CkPrivateKey();
var certChain = new CkCertChain();

//  For each private key entry, get the private key and
//  the associated certificate chain.
//  Each private key is password protected.  Usually it is the same
//  password as used for the keyed digest of the entire JKS.  
//  However, this does not have to be.  The password is passed
//  here to handle the possibility of each private key requiring
//  a different password.
console.log("Private Keys:");
