python – Generating RSA key pairs with pycryptodome module

Thank you for the creator of pycryptodome module, this module has made RSA key pair easy. This recipe presents a function for generating private and public key pair. from Crypto.PublicKey import RSA # pycryptodome def rsa_key_gen(bits=2048, privatekey_path=RSA_PRIVATE_KEY, pubkey_path=RSA_PUBLIC_KEY): private_key = RSA.generate(bits) with open(privatekey_path, "wb") as privkey_file: privkey_file.write(private_key.export_key()) with open(pubkey_path, "wb") as pubkey_file: pubkey_file.write(private_key.publickey().export_key())
