web-pki

web-pki

The Lacuna Web PKI component enables web applications to interact with digital certificates through javascript.

The main features are:

• Displaying available certificates (either software- or hardware-based)
• Obtaining public properties of certificates (name, email address, etc.)
• Reading a certificate's binary encoding
• Signing data (or a pre-computed digest) with a certificate

The Web PKI component's main goal is to perform the client-side processing necessary for operations with digital certificates.

Installation

Using npm:

$ npm install web-pki --save
