Description

resource openssl_pkey_new ( [array configargs] )

openssl_pkey_new() generates a new private and public key pair. The public component of the key can be obtained using openssl_pkey_get_public(). You can finetune the key generation (such as specifying the number of bits) using configargs. See openssl_csr_new() for more information about configargs.

Замечание: You need to have a valid openssl.cnf installed for this function to operate correctly. See the notes under the installation section for more information.

As you probably found, getting the public key is not as direct as you might think with this documentation.



You can easily get into messages like:



Warning: openssl_pkey_get_public(): Don't know how to get public key from this private key (the documentation lied) in D:\www\keys.php on line 4



The correct steps to get the whole thing seem to be these:



<?

$dn = array("countryName" => 'XX', "stateOrProvinceName" => 'State', "localityName" => 'SomewhereCity', "organizationName" => 'MySelf', "organizationalUnitName" => 'Whatever', "commonName" => 'mySelf', "emailAddress" => 'user@domain.com');

$privkeypass = '1234';

$numberofdays = 365;



$privkey = openssl_pkey_new();

$csr = openssl_csr_new($dn, $privkey);

$sscert = openssl_csr_sign($csr, null, $privkey, $numberofdays);

openssl_x509_export($sscert, $publickey);

openssl_pkey_export($privkey, $privatekey, $privkeypass);

openssl_csr_export($csr, $csrStr);



echo $privatekey; // Will hold the exported PriKey

echo $publickey;  // Will hold the exported PubKey

echo $csrStr;     // Will hold the exported Certificate

?>



Now all you need to do is to make some research on each individual function.
