CkPython Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Convert PEM to JKS (Java KeyStore)

See more PEM Examples

Converts a PEM containing private key(s) and certificates into a JKS (Java KeyStore) formatted file. CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

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

pem = chilkat.CkPem()

#  Load the PEM from a file.
#  If the PEM is encrypted, provide a password.  Otherwise pass an empty string for the password.
password = "myPassword"
success = pem.LoadPemFile("../myPemFiles/myPem.pem",password)
if (success == False):
    print(pem.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Note: If the app already has the PEM pre-loaded in a string variable, then load it 
#  by calling LoadPem instead.  
pemContent = "... the PEM contents ..."
success = pem.LoadPem(pemContent,password)
#  Check for success as before..

#  Convert to a JavaKeyStore object.
#  The alias, if a non-empty string, will be applied to the 1st private key or 
#  certificate.  All other keys and/or certificates will be assigned an auto-generated
#  alias.
alias = "anything_I_want_here"

#  This is the passord that will be required to access the created JKS.
jksPassword = "myJksSecret"
jks = chilkat.CkJavaKeyStore()
success = pem.ToJksObj(alias,jksPassword,jks)
if (success == False):
    print(pem.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Save the JKS to a file.  The password passed here is used for the keyed hash of the
#  entire JKS file.  This may be different (if desired) than the password for individual private keys
#  contained within the JKS.  
success = jks.ToFile(jksPassword,"../myJksFiles/myJks.jks")
if (success == False):
    print(jks.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()
