Get-SodiumPublicKey¶
SYNOPSIS¶
Derives a Curve25519 public key from a provided private key using the Sodium cryptographic library.
SYNTAX¶
Base64 (Default)¶
Get-SodiumPublicKey -PrivateKey <String> [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]
AsByteArray¶
Get-SodiumPublicKey -PrivateKey <String> [-AsByteArray] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>]
[<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION¶
Takes a base64-encoded Curve25519 private key and returns the corresponding base64-encoded public key.
This is accomplished using the
Libsodium crypto_scalarmult_base function provided by the PSModule.Sodium .NET wrapper.
The function ensures compatibility with
cryptographic operations requiring key exchange mechanisms.
EXAMPLES¶
EXAMPLE 1¶
Get-SodiumPublicKey -PrivateKey 'ci5/7eZ0IbGXtqQMaNvxhJ2d9qwFxA8Kjx+vivSTXqU='
Output:
WQakMx2mIAQMwLqiZteHUTwmMP6mUdK2FL0WEybWgB8=
Derives and returns the public key corresponding to the given base64-encoded private key.
