# openssl_spki_new

(PHP 5 >= 5.6.0)

openssl_spki_new — Generate a new signed public key and challenge

### Description

string openssl_spki_new ( resource `&$privkey` , string `&$challenge` [, int `$algorithm` = 0 ] )

Generates a signed public key and challenge using specified hashing algorithm

### Parameters

`privkey`

  `privkey` should be set to a private key that was previously generated by openssl_pkey_new() (or otherwise obtained from the other openssl_pkey family of functions). The corresponding public portion of the key will be used to sign the CSR.

`challenge`

  The challenge associated to associate with the SPKAC

`algorithm`

  The digest algorithm. See openssl_get_md_method().

### Return Values

Returns a signed public key and challenge string or NULL on failure.

### Errors/Exceptions

Emits an `E_WARNING` level error if an unknown signature algorithm is passed via the `algorithm` parameter.

### Examples

Example #1 openssl_spki_new() example

Generate a new SPKAC with the default digest (MD5)

`<?php
$pkey = openssl_pkey_new('secret password');
$spkac = openssl_spki_new($pkey, 'testing');
if ($spkac !== NULL) {
echo $spkac;
} else {
echo "SPKAC generation failed";
}
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:
