See more JSON Web Signatures (JWS) Examples

Demonstrates how to get an RSA public key in JWK (JSON Web Key) format.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or later.

#import <CkoStringBuilder.h>
#import <CkoPublicKey.h>
#import <NSString.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>

BOOL success = NO;

// Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or later.

// Load a PEM file into memory.
CkoStringBuilder *sbPem = [[CkoStringBuilder alloc] init];
success = [sbPem LoadFile: @"qa_data/pem/rsa_public.pem" charset: @"utf-8"];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",@"Failed to load PEM file.");
    return;
}

// Load the PEM into a public key object.
CkoPublicKey *pubKey = [[CkoPublicKey alloc] init];
success = [pubKey LoadFromString: [sbPem GetAsString]];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",pubKey.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Get the public key in JWK format:
NSString *jwk = [pubKey GetJwk];

// The GetJwk method will return the JWK in the most compact JSON format possible,
// as a single line with no extra whitespace.  To get a more human-readable JWK (for this example),
// load into a Chilkat JSON object and emit non-compact:

CkoJsonObject *json = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
[json Load: jwk];
json.EmitCompact = NO;
NSLog(@"%@",@"RSA Public Key in JWK format:");
NSLog(@"%@",[json Emit]);

// Sample output:
// { 
//   "kty": "RSA",
//   "n": "33TqqLR3eeUmDtHS89qF3p4MP7Wfqt2Zjj3lZjLjjCGDvwr9cJNlNDiuKboODgUiT4ZdPWbOiMAfDcDzlOxA04DDnEFGAf-kDQiNSe2ZtqC7bnIc8-KSG_qOGQIVaay4Ucr6ovDkykO5Hxn7OU7sJp9TP9H0JH8zMQA6YzijYH9LsupTerrY3U6zyihVEDXXOv08vBHk50BMFJbE9iwFwnxCsU5-UZUZYw87Uu0n4LPFS9BT8tUIvAfnRXIEWCha3KbFWmdZQZlyrFw0buUEf0YN3_Q0auBkdbDR_ES2PbgKTJdkjc_rEeM0TxvOUf7HuUNOhrtAVEN1D5uuxE1WSw",

// Additional information can be added like this:

[json AppendString: @"kid" value: @"123ABC"];
