function publicEncrypt
Usage in Deno
import { publicEncrypt } from "node:crypto";
publicEncrypt(key: ,buffer: ArrayBufferView,): Buffer
Encrypts the content of buffer
with key
and returns a new Buffer
with encrypted content. The returned data can be decrypted using
the corresponding private key, for example using privateDecrypt.
If key
is not a KeyObject
, this function behaves as ifkey
had been passed to createPublicKey. If it is an
object, the padding
property can be passed. Otherwise, this function usesRSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING
.
Because RSA public keys can be derived from private keys, a private key may be passed instead of a public key.
