Load a PFX from an Encoded String

See more PFX/P12 Examples

Demonstrates Pfx.LoadPfxEncoded, which decodes text using a named binary encoding (such as base64) and loads the resulting bytes as a PFX / PKCS#12 container.

import { Pfx } from '@chilkat/react-native'

function chilkatExample() {
  const pfx = new Pfx();

  // The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
  const password = 'myPfxPassword';

  // Decode the base64 text into PFX / PKCS#12 bytes and load them.  Common encodings include base64
  // and hex.
  const encodedPfx = 'MIIKrAIBAzCCCm...base64-encoded-pfx...';
  try {
    pfx.loadPfxEncoded(encodedPfx, 'base64', password);
  } catch {
    console.log(pfx.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  console.log(`Loaded ${pfx.numCerts} certificate(s).`);
