ND...ETE(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is ndnsec-delete — the page header goes ND...ETE(1), and it's from ndn-cxx: NDN C++ library with eXperimental eXtensions. It deletes an NDN identity, key, or certificate, and it's here to help you clean up security data. Periodt. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

exact shape, no cap:

ndnsec delete [-h] [-k|-c] name

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This command allows deleting security data from both the Public Information Base (PIB) and the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). That's the whole flex. ✨

By default, name is interpreted as an identity name. If an identity is deleted, all keys and certificates belonging to that identity will be deleted as well. If a key is deleted, all certificates associated with that key will be deleted as well. iykyk. 🦋

💅 OPTIONS 💅

the synopsis has -h, but the original OPTIONS list only spells out -k and -c, so I'm not inventing extra lore for it:

• -k, --delete-key — interpret name as a key name and delete the key and its associated data. 🔥
• -c, --delete-cert — interpret name as a certificate name and delete the certificate. 💅
• -h — appears in the synopsis; the original OPTIONS section does not describe it, so no made-up details here, bestie. 🫶

🫶 EXIT STATUS 🫶

Normally, the exit status is 0 if the requested entity is deleted successfully. If the entity to be deleted does not exist, the exit status is 1. For any other errors, the exit status is 2. That's the status vibe check. ✅

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Delete all data related to the identity /ndn/test/david:

$ ndnsec delete /ndn/test/david

slay, clean, done. 🌈
