Handling of RSA, DSA, ECDSA, and Ed25519 keys.
| Class | BadKeyError |
Raised when a key isn't what we expected from it. |
| Class | EncryptedKeyError |
Raised when an encrypted key is presented to fromString/fromFile without a password. |
| Class | BadFingerPrintFormat |
Raises when unsupported fingerprint formats are presented to fingerprint. |
| Class | FingerprintFormats |
Constants representing the supported formats of key fingerprints. |
| Class | PassphraseNormalizationError |
Raised when a passphrase contains Unicode characters that cannot be normalized using the available Unicode character database. |

| Function | _normalizePassphrase |
Normalize a passphrase, which may be Unicode. |
| Function | _getPersistentRSAKey |
This function returns a persistent Key. |
Normalize a passphrase, which may be Unicode.
If the passphrase is Unicode, this follows the requirements of NIST 800-63B, section 5.1.1.2 for Unicode characters in memorized secrets: it applies the Normalization Process for Stabilized Strings using NFKC normalization. The passphrase is then encoded using UTF-8.
| Parameters | passphrase | The passphrase to normalize. (type: bytes or unicode or None) |
| Returns | The normalized passphrase, if any. (type: bytes or None) | |
| Raises | PassphraseNormalizationError | if the passphrase is Unicode and cannot be normalized using the available Unicode character database. |
This function returns a persistent Key.
The key is loaded from a PEM file in location. If it does not exist, a key with the key size of keySize is generated and saved.
| Parameters | location | Where the key is stored. (type: twisted.python.filepath.FilePath) |
| keySize | The size of the key, if it needs to be generated. (type: int) | |
| Returns | A persistent key. (type: Key) | |
