API

---

jwkToPem(Object jwk[, Object options]) -> String

The first parameter should be an Object representing the jwk, it may be public or private. By default, either of the two will be made into a public PEM. The call will throw if the input jwk is malformed or does not represent a valid key.

Option: private Boolean (false)

You may optionally specify that you would like a private PEM. This can be done by passing true to the private option. The call will throw if the necessary private parameters are not available.
