Load PEM Public/Private Key into RSA Object

Demonstrates how to load a PEM key into the Chilkat RSA object.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

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

var rsa = new CkRsa();

// First demonstrate importing a PEM public key:
var publicKeyPem = "PEM public-key data goes here";
var pubkey = new CkPublicKey();

success = pubkey.LoadFromString(publicKeyPem);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(pubkey.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = rsa.UsePublicKey(pubkey);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(rsa.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Demonstrate importing a PEM private key:
var privateKeyPem = "PEM private-key data goes here";
var privkey = new CkPrivateKey();

// If the private key PEM is protected with a password, then 
// call LoadEncryptedPem.  Otherwise call LoadPem.
success = privkey.LoadPem(privateKeyPem);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(privkey.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = rsa.UsePrivateKey(privkey);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(rsa.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("OK!");
