✨ NAME ✨

cunicu-wg-pubkey — calculates a public key and prints it in base64 to standard output. That’s literally the whole main-character job, bestie.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

cunicu wg pubkey [flags]

Okay so that’s the shape of it: cunicu wg pubkey plus [flags]. Slay.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This one calculates a public key and prints it in base64 to standard output. The key it uses? It comes from a corresponding private key — generated with genkey — that you give it in base64 on standard input. So private key goes in on stdin, public key comes out on stdout, and it’s giving base64 both ways. 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help[=false] — help for pubkey. Iconic little helper behavior, fr fr.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

• -q, --color="auto" — enable colorization of output (one of: auto, always, never). The vibe check for your terminal’s colors, iykyk.
• -l, --log-file=[] — path of a file to write logs to. Put those logs somewhere cute (well, somewhere useful).
• -d, --log-level=[] — log level filter rule (one of: debug, info, warn, error, dpanic, panic, and fatal) (default "info"). Lowkey controls how much log tea gets spilled.

🔥 EXAMPLE 🔥

Bestie, the example is a whole combo move: a private key and a corresponding public key may be generated at once by calling:

# A private key and a corresponding public key may be generated at once by calling:
$ umask 077
$ wg genkey | tee private.key | wg pubkey > public.key
