Generate a CSR with keyUsage, extKeyUsage, and other Extensions

See more CSR Examples

Demonstrates how to generate a CSR containing a 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest with the following extensions:

• 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.20.2 enrollCerttypeExtension
• 2.5.29.15 keyUsage
• 2.5.29.37 extKeyUsage
• 2.5.29.14 subjectKeyIdentifier

Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

# This example will generate a secp256r1 ECDSA key for the CSR.
$ecc = chilkat::CkEcc->new();
$prng = chilkat::CkPrng->new();
$privKey = chilkat::CkPrivateKey->new();
$success = $ecc->GenKey("secp256r1",$prng,$privKey);
if ($success == 0) {
    print "Failed to generate a new ECDSA private key." . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$csr = chilkat::CkCsr->new();

# Add common CSR fields:
$csr->put_CommonName("mysubdomain.mydomain.com");
$csr->put_Country("GB");
$csr->put_State("Yorks");
$csr->put_Locality("York");
$csr->put_Company("Internet Widgits Pty Ltd");
$csr->put_EmailAddress('support@mydomain.com');

# Add the following 1.2.840.113549.1.9.14 extensionRequest
# Note: The easiest way to know the content and format of the XML to be added is to examine
# a pre-existing CSR with the same desired extensionRequest.  You can use Chilkat to
# get the extensionRequest from an existing CSR. 

# 
# Here is a sample extension request:
