NAME

App::CamelPKI::Certificate - Model for a X509 certificate in Camel-PKI.

SYNOPSIS

  use App::CamelPKI::Certificate;

  my $cert = parse App::CamelPKI::Certificate($pemstring, -format => "PEM");

  print $cert->get_serial;

  my $derstring = $cert->serialize(-format => "DER");

DESCRIPTION

This class is a Crypt::X509 and Convert::ASN1 wrapper; Its compensate these two packages deficiencies and provide a complete abstraction for X509 certificates, no matter they were issued by Camel-PKI or not.

Each instance of this classe represents a certificate. Instances are immutable.

METHODS

parse($texte, %options)

load($file, %options)

serialize(%options)

These methods are inherited from App::CamelPKI::PEM.

parse_bundle($texte)

Load $texte, which is a certificate bundle, ie a concatenation of one or more certificates in PEM format. Returns a list of App::CamelPKI::Certificate objects.

as_crypt_openssl_ca_x509()

Returns an intance of "Crypt::OpenSSL::CA::X509" in Crypt::OpenSSL::CA which modelize the certificate. This instance is newly created for each call, so that App::CamelPKI::Certificate do not have a shared mutable state.

get_serial

get_issuer_DN

get_subject_DN

get_subject_keyid

get_notBefore

get_notAfter

Delegated to methods of the same name in "Crypt::OpenSSL::CA::X509" in Crypt::OpenSSL::CA.

get_subject_CN

Returns the CN of the DN of the certificate suject.

get_public_key

Returns an object of the App::CamelPKI::PublicKey class.

equals($cert)

Returns true only if $cert, another object of the same App::CamelPKI::Certificate classe, modelise the same certificate.
