Convert a PFX to a Java KeyStore

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.ToJksObj, which populates a JavaKeyStore with a JKS representation of the PFX, then writes it to a file.

The file path is relative to the application's current working directory. An absolute path may also be used. Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

local pfx = chilkat.Pfx.new()

-- The file path is relative to the application's current working directory.  An absolute path
-- may also be used.  Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
-- The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
local password = "myPfxPassword"
local success = pfx:load_pfx_file("qa_data/identity.pfx", password)
if not success then
    print(pfx.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- Populate a Java KeyStore (JKS) representation of this PFX.  One private-key entry is created for
-- each private key, and the PFX certificates are used to build the certificate chains.  The 1st
-- argument is the alias for the first private-key entry, and the 2nd protects the generated JKS.
-- The JKS password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
local jksPassword = "myJksPassword"
local jks = chilkat.JavaKeyStore.new()
success = pfx:to_jks_obj("myalias", jksPassword, jks)
if not success then
    print(pfx.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- The Java KeyStore object can then be written to a .jks file.
success = jks:to_file(jksPassword, "qa_output/identity.jks")
if not success then
    print(jks.last_error_text)
    return
end

print("Wrote a Java KeyStore with " .. jks.num_private_keys .. " private key(s).")
