.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.sp
|
|
The zcert class provides a way to create and work with security certificates for the ZMQ CURVE mechanism\&. A certificate contains a public + secret key pair, plus metadata\&. It can be used as a temporary object in memory, or persisted to disk\&. On disk, a certificate is stored as two files\&. One is public and contains only the public key\&. The second is secret and contains both keys\&. The two have the same filename, with the secret file adding "_secret"\&. To exchange certificates, send the public file via some secure route\&. Certificates are not signed but are text files that can be verified by eye\&.
|
|
.sp
|
|
Certificates are stored in the ZPL (ZMQ RFC 4) format\&. They have two sections, "metadata" and "curve"\&. The first contains a list of \fIname = value\fR pairs, one per line\&. Values may be enclosed in quotes\&. The curve section has a \fIpublic\-key = keyvalue\fR and, for secret certificates, a \fIsecret\-key = keyvalue\fR line\&. The keyvalue is a Z85\-encoded CURVE key\&.
