TLS v5.1.1 published on Saturday, Mar 15, 2025 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-tls

    Get a public key from a PEM-encoded private key.

    Use this data source to get the public key from a PEM (RFC 1421) or OpenSSH PEM (RFC 4716) formatted private key, for use in other resources.

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as std from "@pulumi/std";
import * as tls from "@pulumi/tls";

const ed25519_example = new tls.PrivateKey("ed25519-example", {algorithm: "ED25519"});
// Public key loaded from a terraform-generated private key, using the PEM (RFC 1421) format
const privateKeyPem_example = tls.getPublicKeyOutput({
    privateKeyPem: ed25519_example.privateKeyPem,
});
// Public key loaded from filesystem, using the Open SSH (RFC 4716) format
const privateKeyOpenssh_example = std.file({
    input: "~/.ssh/id_rsa_rfc4716",
}).then(invoke => tls.getPublicKey({
    privateKeyOpenssh: invoke.result,
}));

# Public key loaded from filesystem, using the Open SSH (RFC 4716) format

    Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.
