Function generateKeyPair

  • generateKeyPair(
        alg: Algoritm,
    ): Promise<
        {
            alg: Algoritm;
            created: number;
            id: `${string}-${string}-${string}-${string}-${string}`;
            privateKey: string;
            publicKey: string;
        },
    >

    Generates a new cryptographic key pair using the specified algorithm.

    The keys are generated in an extractable format to allow export and import.

    Parameters

    • alg: Algoritm

      The algorithm to use for key generation.

    Returns Promise<
        {
            alg: Algoritm;
            created: number;
            id: `${string}-${string}-${string}-${string}-${string}`;
            privateKey: string;
            publicKey: string;
        },
    >

    A promise that resolves to an object containing the generated key pair.

    Example

    const keyPair = await JWK.generateKeyPair(JWK.Algoritm.ES256);
    console.log(keyPair);
