Encrypt using private key, decrypt using public key.

Use this for posting signed messages:  Anyone with access to
your public key can read it, but they can't create one with
your signature.

<?php
echo "Source: $source";

// $passphrase is required if your key is encoded (suggested)
$res = openssl_get_privatekey($priv_key,$passphrase);
/*
 * NOTE:  Here you use the returned resource value
 */
