Keys

Once you have setup a keystore, it's time to use those keys.

To get a reference to a java.security.PrivateKey, use the <crypt:privateKey> element.

<crypt:privateKey id="privateKey" keystore-ref="keystore" alias="test"
    password="password"/>

<crypt:keystore id="keystore" location="classpath:keystore.jks"
    password="password"/>

To get a reference to a java.security.PublicKey, use the <crypt:publicKey> element.

<crypt:publicKey id="publicKey" keystore-ref="keystore" alias="test"/>

<crypt:keystore id="keystore" location="classpath:keystore.jks" password="password"/>

To get a reference to a java.security.Key, use the <crypt:secretKey> element.

<crypt:secretKey id="secretKey" keystore-ref="keystore" alias="hmac"
    password="changeit"/>

<crypt:keystore id="keystore" location="classpath:keystore.jceks"
    password="changeit" type="JCEKS"/>

JCEKS keystores

Please note that in order to use secret keys, you will need to employ a keystore in JCEKS format.
