+# edkey
+edkey allows you to marshal/write ED25519 private keys in the OpenSSH private key format
+
+## Example
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+ "crypto/rand"
+ "encoding/pem"
+ "io/ioutil"
+ "github.com/mikesmitty/edkey"
+ "golang.org/x/crypto/ed25519"
+ "golang.org/x/crypto/ssh"
+)
+
+func main() {
+ // Generate a new private/public keypair for OpenSSH
+ pubKey, privKey, _ := ed25519.GenerateKey(rand.Reader)
+ publicKey, _ := ssh.NewPublicKey(pubKey)
+
+ pemKey := &pem.Block{
+ Type: "OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY",
+ Bytes: edkey.MarshalED25519PrivateKey(privKey),
+ }
+ privateKey := pem.EncodeToMemory(pemKey)
+ authorizedKey := ssh.MarshalAuthorizedKey(publicKey)
+
+ _ = ioutil.WriteFile("id_ed25519", privateKey, 0600)
+ _ = ioutil.WriteFile("id_ed25519.pub", authorizedKey, 0644)
+}
+```
