💖 gnutls_x509_crt_set_key(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual page for gnutls_x509_crt_set_key(3) — yes that's the whole name, we're being formal today 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_x509_crt_set_key — it's an API function, and it's about to hand your cert a whole public key situation 🔑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_set_key(gnutls_x509_crt_t crt, gnutls_x509_privkey_t key);

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gnutls_x509_crt_t crt — a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t. the main character of this whole operation, fr fr.
• gnutls_x509_privkey_t key — holds a private key. she's got the goods 🗝️

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea: this function sets the public parameters from the given private key onto the certificate. like, it takes the public side of your key and drops it right into crt. that's the whole vibe. ✨

Now, if what you actually want is to export the public key (aka the SubjectPublicKeyInfo part, iykyk), then you should go check out gnutls_pubkey_import_x509() instead. not this function. different girl, different job 💅

---

💜 RETURNS 💜

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned — slay! 🎉 Otherwise you get a negative error value, which is giving "something went wrong bestie" energy 😭
