# OpenSSL::PKey::SSH

This gem introduces `OpenSSL::PKey::SSH` class with the ability to parse **OpenSSH** format public keys and return a correct `OpenSSL::PKey` type object. This is a convenience class used to parse the specific format of the **OpenSSH** public key.

Private **OpenSSH** key strings are forwarderd without modification to `OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new` and `OpenSSL::Pkey::DSA.new` respectively.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'openssl-ssh'
```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install openssl-ssh

## Usage

```ruby
require 'openssl/ssh'

OpenSSL::PKey::SSH.new File.read('/path/to/openssh/public.key')
# <OpenSSL::PKey::RSA:0x00007fb93f9f8788>

```

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
