I googled how to convert a PEM public key to DER and only found examples
for RSA keys. Mine are ed25519. I thought it would be a simple
algorithm substitution:
$ openssl ed25519 -pubin -inform PEM -in $dir/private/intermediate.key.pem\
> -outform DER -out $dir/private/intermediate.key.der
Invalid command 'ed25519'; type "help" for a list.
So since my other commands use -algorithm, I tried:
$ openssl -algorithm $algorithm -pubin -inform PEM -in
$dir/private/intermediate.key.pem\
> -outform DER -out $dir/private/intermediate.key.der
Invalid command '-algorithm'; type "help" for a list.
So what is the command to convert an ed25519 public key from DER to
PEM. The command I used to create the key was:
openssl genpkey -aes256 -algorithm ed25519\
-outform pem -out $dir/private/intermediate.key.pem
thanks
