Load any format Ed25519 Key

See more Ed25519 Examples

Demonstrates how to load any format Ed25519 private or public key.

Note: Chilkat began support for Ed25519 keys in version 9.5.0.83

Rust

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

// A private key, regardless of type or format (RSA, EC, DSA, Ed25519) can be loaded by
// calling LoadAnyFormat or LoadAnyFormatFile.

// Likewise, a public key, regardless of type or format can be loaded by calling
// LoadFromFile or LoadBd.

// For example:
let priv_key = chilkat::PrivateKey::new();

// Pass an empty password if not needed.
let mut password = String::new();
let _ = priv_key.load_any_format_file("qa_data/eddsa/ed25519.pem", &password).is_ok();

// For example, an encrypted PKCS8 key of any type (Ed25519, RSA, EC, etc.)
password = "secret".to_string();
let _ = priv_key.load_any_format_file("qa_data/rsa/pkcs8.key", &password).is_ok();

// The same for public keys..
// (public keys never have nor need passwords)
let pub_key = chilkat::PublicKey::new();
let _ = pub_key.load_from_file("qa_data/pubkeys/pubkey_pkcs1.der").is_ok();
