This corresponds to EVP_PKEY_assign_EC_KEY.

impl PKey<Private>

pub fn private_key_from_pem(pem: &[u8]) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

Deserializes a private key from a PEM-encoded key type specific format.

This corresponds to PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey.

Deserializes a private key from a PEM-encoded encrypted key type specific format.

This corresponds to PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey.

pub fn private_key_from_pem_callback<F>( pem: &[u8], callback: F, ) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

where F: FnOnce(&mut [u8]) -> Result<usize, ErrorStack>,

Deserializes a private key from a PEM-encoded encrypted key type specific format.

This corresponds to PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey.

pub fn private_key_from_der(der: &[u8]) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

Decodes a DER-encoded private key.

This function will automatically attempt to detect the underlying key format, and supports the unencrypted PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo structures as well as key type specific formats.

This corresponds to d2i_AutoPrivateKey.

pub fn private_key_from_pkcs8(der: &[u8]) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

Deserializes a DER-formatted PKCS#8 unencrypted private key.

This method is mainly for interoperability reasons. Encrypted keyfiles should be preferred.

pub fn private_key_from_pkcs8_callback<F>( der: &[u8], callback: F, ) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

where F: FnOnce(&mut [u8]) -> Result<usize, ErrorStack>,

Deserializes a DER-formatted PKCS#8 private key, using a callback to retrieve the password if the key is encrypted.

The callback should copy the password into the provided buffer and return the number of bytes written.

pub fn private_key_from_pkcs8_passphrase( der: &[u8], passphrase: &[u8], ) -> Result<PKey<Private>, ErrorStack>

Deserializes a DER-formatted PKCS#8 private key, using the supplied password if the key is encrypted.

Panics

Panics if passphrase contains an embedded null.

impl PKey<Public>

pub fn public_key_from_pem(pem: &[u8]) -> Result<PKey<Public>, ErrorStack>

Decodes a PEM-encoded SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure.

The input should have a header of -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----.

This corresponds to PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY.

pub fn public_key_from_der(der: &[u8]) -> Result<PKey<Public>, ErrorStack>

Decodes a DER-encoded SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure.

This corresponds to d2i_PUBKEY.
