You should be able to use https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/crypto/pkcs12, e.g. like this:
pfxData, err := ioutil.ReadFile(*pfxFile) if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } blocks, err := pkcs12.ToPEM(pfxData, "SOME_PASSWORD") // Change according to your setup if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } var pemData []byte for _, b := range blocks { pemData = append(pemData, pem.EncodeToMemory(b)...) } cert, err := tls.X509KeyPair(pemData, pemData) // then just use the `cert` as per the snippetAlternatively, convert pfx to pem using
openssl pkcs12
.
Also worth noting that for .pfx
and the password way you would need the below. Just wanted to add more.

BTW: it seems that
BuildNameToCertificate()
is deprecated now (go 1.19.3). See: https://pkg.go.dev/crypto/tls#Config.BuildNameToCertificateIt looks like that you can just skip this call to let the library select the first compatible chain from
tlsConfig.Certificates
.
