I’m trying to create an Elixir code that will generate GnuPG-compatible key pairs and also to be able to encrypt, decrypt and sign messages. But it’s also important that it can export PEM-formatted keys and messages, so users can use it with the GnuPG implementation.
Here’s how I began my attempt:
defmodule GPG do
def test do
private_key = generate_private_key()
public_pem = pem_encoded_public_key(private_key)
IO.puts("Public Key PEM:")
IO.puts(public_pem)
end
defp pem_encoded_public_key(private_key) do
private_key
|> public_key_from_private_key()
|> pem_entry_encode(:RSAPublicKey)
end
defp generate_private_key do
:public_key.generate_key({:rsa, 2048, 65537})
end
defp public_key_from_private_key(private_key) do
{:RSAPublicKey, elem(private_key, 2), elem(private_key, 2)}
end
defp pem_entry_encode(key, type) do
:public_key.pem_encode([:public_key.pem_entry_encode(type, key)])
end
end
If I run GNU.test() on iEx, it will output:
iex(3)> GPG.test()
Public Key PEM:
-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----

-----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
But if I create a test_public_key.txt file with this given key as content and run GnuPG to evaluate it, this happens:
$ gpg --show-keys test_public_key.txt
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
I’m wondering what I’m missing.

I think the problem is that GPG keys have different headers than RSA keys and they contain a checksum
something like
