@probot/get-private-key

Explicit file path option
PRIVATE_KEY environment variable or explicit env.PRIVATE_KEY option. The private key can optionally be base64 encoded.
PRIVATE_KEY_PATH environment variable or explicit env.PRIVATE_KEY_PATH option
Any file w/ .pem extension in current working dir

name	type	description
`options.filepath`	`string`	Pass a path to a `*.pem` file. A relative path will be resolved to the current working directory (which you can set with the `cwd` option) const privateKey = getPrivateKey({ filepath: "private-key.pem", });
`options.cwd`	`string`	Defaults to `process.cwd()`. Used to resolve the `filepath` option and used as folder to find `*.pem` files. const privateKey = getPrivateKey({ cwd: "/app/current", });
`options.env`	`object`	Defaults to `process.env`. Pass `env.PRIVATE_KEY` or `env.PRIVATE_KEY_PATH` to workaround reading environment variables const privateKey = getPrivateKey({ env: { PRIVATE_KEY: "-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n...", }, });
