This module is designed as a backend for [ssh-agent-js](https://github.com/131/ssh-agent-js), a nodejs SSH agent.

# API

```

const KeyChain = require('ssh-keychain');

var vault = new KeyChain(); //new empty vault

vault.add_key( fs.readFileSync('some/rsa/key.pem', 'utf-8), 'mykeycomment');

// vault.keys//list current keys in vault

vault.sign("mykeycomment" //or key fingerprint, new Buffer("SomePpayload to sign"));

```

## add_key(PEM encoded key or binary DER [, optionnal key name])

Add a key in the vault, with an optionnal key name.

## sign(fingerprint or key name, payload)

Sign the payload with the desired key

## remove_key(fingerprint or key name)

Remove the key from by its fingerprint (or key name) from the vault

## remove_keys()

Remove all keys from the vault
