3## How to generate the test data
4
5We load keys from disk only in PKCS8, PKCS1 or PKCX format.
6The next sections describe, how you can generate such keys via openssl.
7Currently only keys **without password protection** are supported.
8
9### RSA
10
11TODO: write description for RSA key generation
12
13### ECDSA
14
15First you need to generate an ecdsa key in traditional ec key format via:
16
17`$ openssl ecparam -name secp521r1 -genkey -noout -out <filename>.ec`
18
19Then you can transform this key into PKCS8 format via:
20
21`$ openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt -in <filename>.ec -out <filename>`
22
23Next generate the public key via:
24
25`$ openssl ec -in <filename> -pubout -out <filename>.pub`
26
27
28### ED25519
29
30Private key:
31
32`$ openssl genpkey -algorithm ed25519 -outform PEM -out <filename>`
33
34Public key:
35
36`$ openssl pkey -in <filename> -pubout > <filename>.pub`
37
38## Go Specifics
39
40### ECDSA
41
42The Go ecdsa library only supports FIPS 186-3.
43The following curves are supported:
44
45* secp521r1
46* ...
47
48The following curves are for example **not** supported:
49
50* secp256k1
51* ...
