# jwk-to-pem

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/Brightspace/node-jwk-to-pem.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/Brightspace/node-jwk-to-pem) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/Brightspace/node-jwk-to-pem/badge.svg)](https://coveralls.io/r/Brightspace/node-jwk-to-pem)

Convert a [json web key][jwk] to a PEM for use by OpenSSL or `crypto`.

## Install
```sh
npm install jwk-to-pem --save
```

## Usage
```js
var jwkToPem = require('jwk-to-pem'),
jwt = require('jsonwebtoken');

var jwk = { kty: 'EC', crv: 'P-256', x: '...', y: '...' },
pem = jwkToPem(jwk);

jwt.verify(token, pem);
```

### Support

key type | support level
---------|--------------
RSA | all RSA keys
EC | _P-256_, _P-384_, and _P-521_ curves

### API

---

#### `jwkToPem(Object jwk[, Object options])` -> `String`

The first parameter should be an Object representing the jwk, it may be public
or private. By default, either of the two will be made into a public PEM. The
call will throw if the input jwk is malformed or does not represent a valid
key.

##### Option: private `Boolean` _(false)_

You may optionally specify that you would like a private PEM. This can be done
by passing `true` to the `private` option. The call will throw if the necessary
private parameters are not available.
