<title>Key/Certificate parameters</title>
<para>
Quite a few of the openssl functions require a key or a certificate
parameter. Following methods may be used to get them:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
Certificates
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<simpara>
An <classname>OpenSSLCertificate</classname> instance
(or prior to PHP 8.0.0, a &resource; of type <literal>OpenSSL X.509</literal>)
returned from <function>openssl_x509_read</function>
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>A string having the format
<filename>file://path/to/cert.pem</filename>; the named file must
contain a PEM encoded certificate
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
A string containing the content of a certificate, PEM encoded, may start with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
</simpara>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs)
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<simpara>
An <classname>OpenSSLCertificateSigningRequest</classname> instance
(or prior to PHP 8.0.0, a &resource; of type <literal>OpenSSL X.509 CSR</literal>)
returned from <function>openssl_csr_new</function>
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>A string having the format
<filename>file://path/to/csr.pem</filename>; the named file must
contain a PEM encoded CSR
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
A string containing the content of a CSR, PEM encoded, may start with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
</simpara>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Public/Private Keys
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<simpara>
An <classname>OpenSSLAsymmetricKey</classname> instance
(or prior to PHP 8.0.0, a &resource; of type <literal>OpenSSL key</literal>)
returned from <function>openssl_get_publickey</function> or
<function>openssl_get_privatekey</function>
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
For public keys only: an <classname>OpenSSLCertificate</classname> instance
(or prior to PHP 8.0.0, a &resource; of type <literal>OpenSSL X.509</literal>)
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>A string having the format
<filename>file://path/to/file.pem</filename> - the named file must
contain a PEM encoded certificate/private key (it may contain both)
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
A string containing the content of a certificate/key, PEM encoded, may start with -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
For private keys, you may also use the syntax
<literal>array($key, $passphrase)</literal> where <varname>$key</varname> represents a
key specified using the file:// or textual content notation above, and
<varname>$passphrase</varname> represents a string containing the passphrase for that
private key
