Description
I'm in the process of upgrading rcgen and I have to say the new API is much easier to understand, great job!
In reading some of the #62 I can see the idea of adding Certificate::from_der
and Certificate::from_pem
came up but they don't seem to have made it into the final release.
I wanted to know if there is a way to load an existing CA certificate to sign some more certificates without triggering signing.
Right now i'm doing the following:
let identity_key = todo!();
let cert: Vec<u8> = todo!();
let cert = CertificateParams::from_ca_cert_der(&cert.try_into().unwrap())
.unwrap()
.self_signed(&identity_key)
.unwrap();
However, my presumption is that this will sign a new CA certificate on each startup of my application and I would rather just import the existing CA certificate and use it.
I tried to do a PR to add the Certificate::from_der
+ Certificate::from_pem
but i'm kinda lost where the subject_public_key_info
would come from. I've included what I had below:
impl Certificate {
/// TODO
pub fn from_der(der: CertificateDer<'static>) -> Result<Self, Error> {
let params = CertificateParams::from_ca_cert_der(&der)?;
Ok(Self {
params,
subject_public_key_info: todo!(),
der,
})
}
}
