type Block

type Block struct {
    Type    string            // The type, taken from the preamble (i.e. "RSA PRIVATE KEY").
    Headers map[string]string // Optional headers.
    Bytes   []byte            // The decoded bytes of the contents. Typically a DER encoded ASN.1 structure.
}

A Block represents a PEM encoded structure.

The encoded form is:

-----BEGIN Type-----
Headers
base64-encoded Bytes
-----END Type-----

where Headers is a possibly empty sequence of Key: Value lines.

func Decode

func Decode(data []byte) (p *Block, rest []byte)

Decode will find the next PEM formatted block (certificate, private key etc) in the input. It returns that block and the remainder of the input. If no PEM data is found, p is nil and the whole of the input is returned in rest.
