Ruby Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

RSA Encrypt and OpenSSL Decrypt

See more OpenSSL Examples

Demonstrates how to use Chilkat to RSA encrypt, and then use OpenSSL to decrypt. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

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

rsa = Chilkat::CkRsa.new()

privKey = Chilkat::CkPrivateKey.new()
success = rsa.GenKey(2048,privKey)
success = privKey.SavePkcs8PemFile("qa_output/privKey.pem")

pubKey = Chilkat::CkPublicKey.new()
privKey.ToPublicKey(pubKey)

rsa.put_EncodingMode("base64")
plainText = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz01234567890"
bUsePrivateKey = false
rsa.UsePublicKey(pubKey)
encryptedStr = rsa.encryptStringENC(plainText,bUsePrivateKey)

bd = Chilkat::CkBinData.new()
bd.AppendEncoded(encryptedStr,"base64")
success = bd.WriteFile("qa_output/enc.dat")

#  The OpenSSL command to decrypt is:
#  openssl pkeyutl -in enc.dat -inkey privKey.pem -keyform PEM -pkeyopt rsa_padding_mode:pkcs1 -decrypt

print "OK" + "\n";
