Asymmetric key algorithms (RSA and ECDSA) Asymmetric key algorithms (RSA and ECDSA)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For asymmetric key algorithms, you should supply the private key as the ``key`` parameter to the ``HTTPSignatureAuth()`` For asymmetric key algorithms, you should supply the private key as the ``key`` parameter to the ``HTTPSignatureAuth()``
constructor as bytes in the PEM format. When verifying, the ``key_resolver()`` callback should provide the public key as constructor as bytes in the PEM format:
