Variables

var MaxPathLen = 2

MaxPathLen is the default path length for a new CA certificate.

Functions

func ComputeSKI

func ComputeSKI(template *x509.Certificate) ([]byte, error)

ComputeSKI derives an SKI from the certificate's public key in a standard manner. This is done by computing the SHA-1 digest of the SubjectPublicKeyInfo component of the certificate.

func DefaultSigAlgo

func DefaultSigAlgo(priv crypto.Signer) x509.SignatureAlgorithm

DefaultSigAlgo returns an appropriate X.509 signature algorithm given the CA's private key.

func FillTemplate

func FillTemplate(template *x509.Certificate, defaultProfile, profile *config.SigningProfile) error

FillTemplate is a utility function that tries to load as much of the certificate template as possible from the profiles and current template. It fills in the key uses, expiration, revocation URLs and SKI.

func ParseCertificateRequest

func ParseCertificateRequest(s Signer, csrBytes []byte) (template *x509.Certificate, err error)

ParseCertificateRequest takes an incoming certificate request and builds a certificate template from it.

func Profile

func Profile(s Signer, profile string) (*config.SigningProfile, error)

Profile gets the specific profile from the signer

func SplitHosts

func SplitHosts(hostList string) []string

SplitHosts takes a comma-spearated list of hosts and returns a slice with the hosts split

Types

type SignRequest

type SignRequest struct {
	Hosts   []string `json:"hosts"`
	Request string   `json:"certificate_request"`
	Subject *Subject `json:"subject,omitempty"`
	Profile string   `json:"profile"`
	Label   string   `json:"label"`
	Serial  *big.Int `json:"serial,omitempty"`
}

SignRequest stores a signature request, which contains the hostname, the CSR, optional subject information, and the signature profile.

type Signer

type Signer interface {
	Info(info.Req) (*info.Resp, error)
	Policy() *config.Signing
	SetPolicy(*config.Signing)
	SigAlgo() x509.SignatureAlgorithm
	Sign(req SignRequest) (cert []byte, err error)
}

A Signer contains a CA's certificate and private key for signing certificates, a Signing policy to refer to and a SignatureAlgorithm.

type Subject

type Subject struct {
	CN    string
	Names []csr.Name `json:"names"`
}

Subject contains the information that should be used to override the subject information when signing a certificate.

func (*Subject) Name

func (s *Subject) Name() pkix.Name

Name returns the PKIX name for the subject.
