Method Details

Save public key to file.

Parameters:

file - Name of file to save key to.
cipher - Symmetric cipher to protect the key. The default cipher is 'aes_128_cbc'. If cipher is None, then the key is saved in the clear.
callback - A Python callable object that is invoked to acquire a passphrase with which to protect the key. The default is util.passphrase_callback.

Save public key to BIO.

Parameters:

bio - M2Crypto.BIO.BIO object to save key to.
cipher - Symmetric cipher to protect the key. The default cipher is 'aes_128_cbc'. If cipher is None, then the key is saved in the clear.
callback - A Python callable object that is invoked to acquire a passphrase with which to protect the key. The default is util.passphrase_callback.
