google api - Getting a PrivateKey object from a .p12 file in Java

Question

As the title suggests, I have .p12 file required for google service account api access. In order to get the credential to connect to the api, there's a field .setServiceAccountPrivateKey(PrivateKey privateKey). So, what's the easiest way in which I can do this? I have a resources folder which is in my classpath so if I add the p12 file there, I can get the resource from getClass().getResource() as either an inputStream or a URL. I've tried the URL method but it doesn't work (I get a "URI is not hierarchical" error trying to create a File object from URL.toURI()).
