NAME

Crypt::Keys::Private::DSA - DSA private key drivers

SYNOPSIS

This document describes the format of the key data returned from DSA private keyfile drivers.

DESCRIPTION

All Crypt::Keys::Private::DSA drivers (no matter the encoding) will return a data structure containing the same format. That structure will be a reference to a hash, containing a key Data; the value of the key Data is another hash reference, which contains the actual key data. This hash reference has the following keys:

  • p

  • q

  • g

  • pub_key

  • priv_key

    These fields should all be self-explanatory. They are standard parts of a private DSA key. pub_key and priv_key are also referred to as y and x, respectively.
