Add Private Key and Certificate to a PEM

See more PEM Examples

Demonstrates how to add certificates and private keys to a PEM. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

# The Chilkat PEM class was introduced in v9.5.0.49.  
# It requires the bundle to be unlocked, as shown above.
pem = Chilkat::CkPem.new()

# Add the private key found in alice.key to this PEM.
# 
privKey = Chilkat::CkPrivateKey.new()

success = privKey.LoadAnyFormatFile("qa_data/alice.key","")
if (success != true)
    print privKey.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Add it to the PEM:
success = pem.AddPrivateKey(privKey)

# Add the certificate found in alice.crt to this PEM.
# 
cert = Chilkat::CkCert.new()

success = cert.LoadFromFile("qa_data/alice.crt")
if (success != true)
    print cert.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Add it to the PEM:
includeCertChain = false
success = pem.AddCert(cert,includeCertChain)

# Write the PEM containing the private key and certificate.
# The private key will be output in PKCS8 encrypted form.
# Certificates are never encrypted.

# This is the password that will be required to open and access the private key
# from the PEM we're about to write..
password = "secret"
extendedAttrs = false
noKeys = false
noCerts = false
noCaCerts = false
encryptAlg = "aes128"

pemStr = pem.toPemEx(extendedAttrs,noKeys,noCerts,noCaCerts,encryptAlg,password)
print pemStr + "\n";
