NAME

Crypt::OpenSSL::SignCSR - Sign a Certificate Signing Request in XS.

SYNOPSIS

  use Crypt::OpenSSL::SignCSR;

  my $signer = Crypt::OpenSSL::SignCSR->new($private_key_pem);
  my $cert   = $signer->sign(
                                $request, # CRS in PEM format
                                $days,      # number of days for the certificate
                                $digest     # Signature digest default (SHAi256)
                                $text,      # Boolean (text format output (1) PEM (0)
                                ''          # FIXME
                            );

DESCRIPTION

Allows a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) to be signed to create a X509 PEM encoded Certificate.

WARNING: Early release.

I am almost certainly going to change the way the module is initialized. The Key being kept in memory is probably not the best approach. It will be moved to the sign sub-routine.

EXPORT

None by default.

I did not write any OpenSSL related code I simply copied and pasted the work of the OpenSSL project's openssl code until I arrived at a XS based module that could create a certificate from a Certificate Signing Request.
