Load ECC Private Key from JWK Format (JSON Web Key)

See more ECC Examples

Demonstrates how to load an ECC private key from JWK (JSON Web Key) format.

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

Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

# First build a JWK sample to load..
json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.UpdateString("kty","EC")
json.UpdateString("crv","P-256")
json.UpdateString("x","oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE")
json.UpdateString("y","vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU")
json.UpdateString("d","EbVzfPnZPxfAyxqEZV05laAoJAl-_6Xt2O4mOB611sM")

# The JSON contains the following:
# { 
#   "kty": "EC",
#   "crv": "P-256",
#   "x": "oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE",
#   "y": "vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU",
#   "d": "EbVzfPnZPxfAyxqEZV05laAoJAl-_6Xt2O4mOB611sM"
# }

# Note: The JSON can contain other members, such as "use", "kid", or anything else.  These will be ignored.
json.put_EmitCompact(false)

# Show the JWK string to be loaded:
jwkStr = json.emit()

privKey = Chilkat::CkPrivateKey.new()
success = privKey.LoadJwk(jwkStr)
if (success != true)
    print privKey.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# OK.. the JWK is loaded.  It can be used in whatever way desired...

# The key can be retrieved in any other format, such as XML or PEM..
print privKey.getXml() + "\n";

# XML output:
# <ECCKeyValue curve="secp256r1">MHcCAQEEIBG1c3z52T8XwMsahGVdOZWgKCQJfv+l7djuJjgetdbDoAoGCCqGSM49AwEHoEQDQgAEoBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxG+9DLFmRSMlBQ9T/RsLLc+PmpB1+7yPAR+oR5gZn3kJQ==</ECCKeyValue>

print privKey.getPkcs8EncryptedPem("secret") + "\n";
