Lightweight, Zero-Dependency RSA and EC/ECDSA crypto for Node.js and Browsers
|
Lightweight JavaScript RSA and ECDSA utils that work on Windows, Mac, and Linux
|
||||||
|
using modern node.js APIs (no need for C compiler).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A thin wrapper around [Eckles.js (ECDSA)](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/eckles.js/)
|
||||||
|
and [Rasha.js (RSA)](https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/rasha.js/).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

# Progress
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is fully functional, but the re-usable code from ACME.js hasn't been fully teased out for the v2.0 release.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(SSH conversions have not yet made it to 2.0)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Usage
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A brief introduction to the APIs:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
// generate a new keypair as jwk
|
||||||
|
// (defaults to EC P-256 when no options are specified)
|
||||||
|
Keypairs.generate().then(function(pair) {
|
||||||
|
console.log(pair.private);
|
||||||
|
console.log(pair.public);
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
// JWK to PEM
|
||||||
|
// (supports various 'format' and 'encoding' options)
|
||||||
|
return Keypairs.export({ jwk: pair.private, format: 'pkcs8' }).then(function(
|
||||||
|
pem
|
||||||
|
) {
|
||||||
|
console.log(pem);
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
// PEM to JWK
|
||||||
|
return Keypairs.import({ pem: pem }).then(function(jwk) {
|
||||||
|
console.log(jwk);
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
// Thumbprint a JWK (SHA256)
|
||||||
|
return Keypairs.thumbprint({ jwk: jwk }).then(function(thumb) {
|
||||||
|
console.log(thumb);
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
// Sign a JWT (aka compact JWS)
|
||||||
|
return Keypairs.signJwt({
|
||||||
|
jwk: pair.private
|
||||||
|
, iss: 'https://example.com'
|
||||||
|
, exp: '1h'
|
||||||
|
// optional claims
|
||||||
|
, claims: {
|
||||||
|
, sub: 'jon.doe@gmail.com'
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default ECDSA keys will be used since they've had native support in node
|
||||||
|
_much_ longer than RSA has, and they're smaller, and faster to generate.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## API Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- generate (JWK)
|
||||||
|
- parse (PEM)
|
||||||
|
- parseOrGenerate (PEM to JWK)
|
||||||
|
- import (PEM-to-JWK)
|
||||||
|
- export (JWK-to-PEM, private or public)
|
||||||
|
- publish (Private JWK to Public JWK)
|
||||||
|
- thumbprint (JWK SHA256)
|
||||||
|
- signJwt
|
||||||
|
- signJws
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.generate(options)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Generates a public/private pair of JWKs as `{ private, public }`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Option examples:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- RSA `{ kty: 'RSA', modulusLength: 2048 }`
|
||||||
|
- ECDSA `{ kty: 'ECDSA', namedCurve: 'P-256' }`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When no options are supplied EC P-256 (also known as `prime256v1` and `secp256r1`) is used by default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.parse(options)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Parses either a JWK (encoded as JSON) or an x509 (encdode as PEM) and gives
|
||||||
|
back the JWK representation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Option Examples:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- JWK { key: '{ "kty":"EC", ... }' }
|
||||||
|
- PEM { key: '-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n...' }
|
||||||
|
- Public Key Only { key: '-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n...', public: true }
|
||||||
|
- Must Have Private Key { key: '-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\n...', private: true }
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
Keypairs.parse({ key: '...' }).catch(function(e) {
|
||||||
|
// could not be parsed or was a public key
|
||||||
|
console.warn(e);
|
||||||
|
return Keypairs.generate();
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.parseOrGenerate({ key, throw, [generate opts]... })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Parses the key. Logs a warning on failure, marches on.
|
||||||
|
(a shortcut for the above, with `private: true`)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Option Examples:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- parse key if exist, otherwise generate `{ key: process.env["PRIVATE_KEY"] }`
|
||||||
|
- generated key curve `{ key: null, namedCurve: 'P-256' }`
|
||||||
|
- generated key modulus `{ key: null, modulusLength: 2048 }`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
Keypairs.parseOrGenerate({ key: process.env['PRIVATE_KEY'] }).then(function(
|
||||||
|
pair
|
||||||
|
) {
|
||||||
|
console.log(pair.public);
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Great for when you have a set of shared keys for development and randomly
|
||||||
|
generated keys in
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.import({ pem: '...' }
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Takes a PEM in pretty much any format (PKCS1, SEC1, PKCS8, SPKI) and returns a JWK.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.export(options)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Exports a JWK as a PEM.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Exports PEM in PKCS8 (private) or SPKI (public) by default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Options
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
{ jwk: jwk
|
||||||
|
, public: true
|
||||||
|
, encoding: 'pem' // or 'der'
|
||||||
|
, format: 'pkcs8' // or 'ssh', 'pkcs1', 'sec1', 'spki'
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.publish({ jwk: jwk, exp: '3d', use: 'sig' })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Promises a public key that adheres to the OIDC and Auth0 spec (plus expiry), suitable to be published to a JWKs URL:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
{ "kty": "EC"
|
||||||
|
, "crv": "P-256"
|
||||||
|
, "x": "..."
|
||||||
|
, "y": "..."
|
||||||
|
, "kid": "..."
|
||||||
|
, "use": "sig"
|
||||||
|
, "exp": 1552074208
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In particular this adds "use" and "exp".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.thumbprint({ jwk: jwk })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Promises a JWK-spec thumbprint: URL Base64-encoded sha256
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.signJwt({ jwk, header, claims })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Returns a JWT (otherwise known as a protected JWS in "compressed" format).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
{ jwk: jwk
|
||||||
|
// required claims
|
||||||
|
, iss: 'https://example.com'
|
||||||
|
, exp: '15m'
|
||||||
|
// all optional claims
|
||||||
|
, claims: {
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Exp may be human readable duration (i.e. 1h, 15m, 30s) or a datetime in seconds.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Header defaults:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```js
|
||||||
|
{ kid: thumbprint
|
||||||
|
, alg: 'xS256'
|
||||||
|
, typ: 'JWT'
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Payload notes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `iat: now` is added by default (set `false` to disable)
|
||||||
|
- `exp` must be set (set `false` to disable)
|
||||||
|
- `iss` should be the base URL for JWK lookup (i.e. via OIDC, Auth0)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Notes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`header` is actually the JWS `protected` value, as all JWTs use protected headers (yay!)
|
||||||
|
and `claims` are really the JWS `payload`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Keypairs.signJws({ jwk, header, protected, payload })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is provided for APIs like ACME (Let's Encrypt) that use uncompressed JWS (instead of JWT, which is compressed).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Options:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `header` not what you think. Leave undefined unless you need this for the spec you're following.
|
||||||
|
- `protected` is the typical JWT-style header
|
||||||
|
- `kid` and `alg` will be added by default (these are almost always required), set `false` explicitly to disable
|
||||||
|
- `payload` can be JSON, a string, or even a buffer (which gets URL Base64 encoded)
|
||||||
|
- you must set this to something, even if it's an empty string, object, or Buffer
|
||||||

# Additional Documentation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Keypairs.js provides a 1-to-1 mapping to the Rasha.js and Eckles.js APIs for the following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- generate(options)
|
||||||
|
- import({ pem: '---BEGIN...' })
|
||||||
|
- export({ jwk: { kty: 'EC', ... })
|
||||||
|
- thumbprint({ jwk: jwk })
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to know the algorithm-specific options that are available for those
|
||||||
|
you'll want to take a look at the corresponding documentation:
