<?php

use Chilkat2\PrivateKey;

$pemPath = '/Users/chilkat/qa_data/rsa/rsaPrivKey_pkcs8.pem';
// Provide a password if your PEM is encrypted. Otherwise pass the empty string.
$pemPassword = '';

$privKey = new PrivateKey();
try {
    $privKey->LoadAnyFormatFile($pemPath, $pemPassword);

    // In Apple Keychain, the label for an item such as a private key is a user-friendly identifier that helps distinguish one item from
    // another in the Keychain. It is typically a brief name or description associated with the item.
    // The label is displayed in the Keychain Access application and is useful for quickly identifying the purpose
    // or source of a specific key, certificate, or password entry.

    // The label does not affect the functionality or security of the item; it is purely for organizational purposes.
    // You can edit or assign labels to make your Keychain easier to navigate.

    // On MacOS, you can save the private key to the Keychain by calling SavePkcs8File with a "filename" in the format"keychain:<label>"
    $privKey->SavePkcs8File('keychain:MyRsaKey123');

    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";

echo "Success.\n";
