Serialize a PFX to BinData

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.ToBd, which serializes the current PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData object, using the supplied output password.

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

pfx = chilkat.CkPfx()

#  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.
password = "myPfxPassword"
success = pfx.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/identity.pfx",password)
if (success == False):
    print(pfx.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Serialize the PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData, using the given output password.
outputPassword = "myOutputPassword"
bd = chilkat.CkBinData()
success = pfx.ToBd(outputPassword,bd)
if (success == False):
    print(pfx.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

print("Serialized " + str(bd.get_NumBytes()) + " bytes of PKCS#12 data.")
