# Struct native_tls::Identity [−] [src]

    pub struct Identity(_);

A cryptographic identity.

An identity is an X509 certificate along with its corresponding private key and chain of certificates to a trusted root.

## Implementations

### `impl Identity` [src]

#### `pub fn from_pkcs12(der: &[u8], password: &str) -> Result<Identity>` [src]

Parses a DER-formatted PKCS #12 archive, using the specified password to decrypt the key.

The archive should contain a leaf certificate and its private key, as well any intermediate certificates that should be sent to clients to allow them to build a chain to a trusted root. The chain certificates should be in order from the leaf certificate towards the root.

PKCS #12 archives typically have the file extension `.p12` or `.pfx`, and can be created with the OpenSSL `pkcs12` tool:

    openssl pkcs12 -export -out identity.pfx -inkey key.pem -in cert.pem -certfile chain_certs.pem
