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.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    // First build a JWK sample to load..
    let json = CkoJsonObject()!
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "kty", value: "EC")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "crv", value: "P-256")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "x", value: "oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "y", value: "vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU")
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "d", value: "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.emitCompact = false

    // Show the JWK string to be loaded:
    var jwkStr: String? = json.emit()

    let privKey = CkoPrivateKey()!
    success = privKey.loadJwk(jsonStr: jwkStr)
    if success != true {
        print("\(privKey.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // 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()!)")

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

    print("\(privKey.getPkcs8EncryptedPem(password: "secret")!)")

    // PEM output
