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

# Load a PEM file into memory.
$sbPem = New-Object Chilkat.StringBuilder
$success = $sbPem.LoadFile("qa_data/pem/rsa_public.pem","utf-8")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $("Failed to load PEM file.")
    exit
}

# Load the PEM into a public key object.
$pubKey = New-Object Chilkat.PublicKey
$success = $pubKey.LoadFromString($sbPem.GetAsString())
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($pubKey.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Get the public key in JWK format:
$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:

$json = New-Object Chilkat.JsonObject
$json.Load($jwk)
$json.EmitCompact = $false
$("RSA Public Key in JWK format:")
$($json.Emit())

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

# }

# Additional information can be added like this:
$json.AppendString("use","enc")
$json.AppendString("kid","123ABC")

# Now examine the JSON:
