###
Module Summary

-behaviour(ssh_server_key_api).

###
Since

Module ssh_server_key_api was introduced in OTP R16B.

###
Description

Behaviour describing the API for public key handling of an SSH server. By implementing the callbacks defined in this behavior, the public key handling of an SSH server can be customized. By default the SSH application implements this behavior with help of the standard OpenSSH files, see the ssh(6) application manual.

###
Data Types

####
daemon_key_cb_options(T) =
[{key_cb_private, [T]} | ssh:daemon_option()]

Options provided to ssh:daemon/2,3.

The option list given in the key_cb option is available with the key key_cb_private.

###
Exports

####
Module:host_key(Algorithm, DaemonOptions) -> {ok, PrivateKey} | {error, Reason}
OTP R16B

### Types

Algorithm = ssh:pubkey_alg()
Host key algorithm.
DaemonOptions = daemon_key_cb_options()
PrivateKey = public_key:private_key() | crypto:engine_key_ref()
Private key of the host matching the Algorithm. It may be a reference to a 'ssh-rsa', rsa-sha2-* or 'ssh-dss' (NOT ecdsa) key stored in a loaded Engine.
Reason = term()

Fetches the private key of the host.

####
Module:is_auth_key(PublicUserKey, User, DaemonOptions) -> Result
OTP R16B

### Types

PublicUserKey = public_key:public_key()
Normally an RSA, DSA or ECDSA public key, but handling of other public keys can be added
User = string()
User owning the public key.
DaemonOptions = daemon_key_cb_options()
Result = boolean()

Checks if the user key is authorized.
