Nodejs `crypto.publicEncrypt` 不会采用 `ssh-keygen rsa` 生成的公钥答案

【问题标题】：Nodejs `crypto.publicEncrypt` would not take public key generated by `ssh-keygen rsa`Nodejs `crypto.publicEncrypt` 不会采用 `ssh-keygen rsa` 生成的公钥
【发布时间】：2021-03-22 01:10:24
【问题描述】：

我使用ssh-keygen rsa 生成了一个 RSA 密钥对。生成的公钥如下所示：

ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAA...

当我尝试在 Node.js 中使用 crypto 来加密纯字符串时，

const fs = require('fs');
const { publicEncrypt } = require('crypto');

const publicKey = fs.readFileSync('$path/to/publicKey').toString();

const encryptedToken = publicEncrypt(publicKey, Buffer.from('some plain string'));

它会给出以下错误：

Error: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line
  at node:internal/crypto/cipher:78:12
  ...
 library: 'PEM routines',
 function: 'get_name',
 reason: 'no start line',
 code: 'ERR_OSSL_PEM_NO_START_LINE'

我对密码学很陌生，只知道公钥/私钥加密的一般概念，因此非常感谢任何建议。

编辑：

我知道crypto 带有生成密钥对的方法，所以我想问题更多是关于为什么ssh-rsa 公钥在这里不起作用。

【解决方案1】：

发布的公钥是OpenSSH格式，NodeJS的crypto模块不支持，见crypto.publicEncrypt(key, buffer)的文档。

但是，OpenSSH 格式的密钥可以转换为 NodeJS 可以处理的格式。这可以通过工具来完成，例如ssh-keygen，或通过库，例如node-sshpk.

或者，可以使用OpenSSL 直接以所需格式生成密钥。

以下示例使用 node-sshpk 库并将 OpenSSH 私钥转换为 PEM 编码的 PKCS8 密钥，并将 OpenSSH 公钥转换为 PEM 编码的 X.509/SPKI 密钥。 NodeJS 支持这两种目标格式：

var sshpk = require('sshpk');
var crypto = require('crypto');
