function verify

Usage in Deno

```typescript import { verify } from "node:node__crypto.d.ts"; ```



verify(algorithm: string
 | null
 | undefined,
data: ArrayBufferView,
key: KeyLike
 | VerifyKeyObjectInput
 | VerifyPublicKeyInput
 | VerifyJsonWebKeyInput,
signature: ArrayBufferView,
): boolean

Verifies the given signature for `data` using the given key and algorithm. If `algorithm` is `null` or `undefined`, then the algorithm is dependent upon the key type (especially Ed25519 and Ed448). If `key` is not a `KeyObject`, this function behaves as if `key` had been passed to [createPublicKey](../.././node__crypto.d.ts/~/createPublicKey). If it is an object, the following additional properties can be passed: The `signature` argument is the previously calculated signature for the `data`. Because public keys can be derived from private keys, a private key or a public key may be passed for `key`. If the `callback` function is provided this function uses libuv's threadpool.
