Generate a CSR with SAN (Subject Alternative Name) Extension

See more CSR Examples

Demonstrates how to generate a private key and a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) that includes the SAN extension. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

# First generate an RSA private key.
# (It is also possible to create CSRs based on ECDSA private keys..)
$rsa = chilkat::CkRsa->new();

# Generate a random 2048-bit RSA key.
$privKey = chilkat::CkPrivateKey->new();
$success = $rsa->GenKey(2048,$privKey);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $rsa->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Create the CSR object and set properties.
$csr = chilkat::CkCsr->new();

# Specify the Common Name. 
$csr->put_CommonName("mysubdomain.mydomain.com");

# Country Name (2 letter code)
$csr->put_Country("GB");

# State or Province Name (full name)
$csr->put_State("Yorks");

# Locality Name (eg, city)
$csr->put_Locality("York");

# Organization Name (eg, company)
$csr->put_Company("Internet Widgits Pty Ltd");

# Organizational Unit Name (eg, secion/division)
$csr->put_CompanyDivision("IT");

# Email address
$csr->put_EmailAddress('support@mydomain.com');

# Add Subject Alternative Names
# (The AddSan method is added in Chilkat v9.5.0.84)
# Call AddSan for each alternative name.
$success = $csr->AddSan("dnsName","mydomain.com");
$success = $csr->AddSan("dnsName","mysubdomain.mydomain.com");
$success = $csr->AddSan("ipAddress","192.168.0.123");

# Create the CSR using the private key.
$pemStr = $csr->genCsrPem($privKey);
if ($csr->get_LastMethodSuccess() != 1) {
    print $csr->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Save the private key and CSR to a files.
$privKey->SavePkcs8EncryptedPemFile("password","qa_output/privKey1.pem");

$fac = chilkat::CkFileAccess->new();
$fac->WriteEntireTextFile("qa_output/csr1.pem",$pemStr,"utf-8",0);

# Show the CSR.
print $pemStr . "\r\n";

# Sample output:
