EcKeyGenParams

The EcKeyGenParams object represents the object that should be passed as the algorithm parameter into the generateKey operation when generating key pairs for ECDH or ECDSA algorithms.

Properties

PropertyTypeDescription
namestringAn algorithm name. Possible values are ECDH or ECDSA.
namedCurvestringA elliptic curve’s name to use for key pair generation. Possible values are P-256, P-384 or P-521.

Example

JavaScript
import { crypto } from 'k6/experimental/webcrypto';

export default async function () {
  const keyPair = await crypto.subtle.generateKey(
    {
      name: 'ECDSA',
      namedCurve: 'P-256',
    },
    true,
    ['sign', 'verify']
  );

  console.log(JSON.stringify(keyPair));
}
