RSA key serialization #3
Conversation
Calling key.toJSON() creates an object that is serializable with: ```javascript JSON.stringify(key.toJSON()) ``` The RSA key can be recreated using: ```javascript RSA.parse(JSON.parse(rsaString)) ```
| e: this.e.toString(16), | ||
| n: this.n.toString(16), | ||

Fantastic! Thanks so much. Got stuck on this aspect in a project and this solved it. |

This is awesome, really helped me out! why isn't it in the official file? |

👍 This is awesome. helped me out with a case where I wanted to encrypt at one location and decrypt elsewhere without sharing the pass phrase |

Can we pull this in? I'd really like to store the key in my application without sharing the passphrase |

it seems merged somehow, this PR can be clossed |
|
coool! but its realy hard to find. |

Thoughts?
