The nethsm openpgp command. that's it, that's the description, no cap 💀 it's the umbrella command — the main character — and all the actual work happens in the subcommands listed down below. iykyk.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• -a, --auth-passphrase-file <AUTH_PASSPHRASE_FILE> — the path to a file holding a passphrase for authentication 🔑

the passphrase in that file must be the one for the user you picked for the command. like, the user, not some random other user, bestie.

this option can be provided multiple times, which you need for commands that require multiple roles at once. and when you pass multiple passphrase files, ordering matters — the files get assigned to the respective user given by the --user option. so don't shuffle them like a playlist 🙈

may also be specified with the NETHSM_AUTH_PASSPHRASE_FILE environment variable.

• -c, --config <CONFIG> — the path to a custom configuration file 🗂️

if you specify it, that custom configuration file gets used instead of the default configuration file location. no default, all yours. ✨

may also be specified with the NETHSM_CONFIG environment variable.

• -l, --label <LABEL> — a label uniquely identifying a device in the configuration file 🏷️

must be provided if more than one device is set up in the configuration file. so if your config file is serving a whole little friend group of devices, you gotta name names.

may also be specified with the NETHSM_LABEL environment variable.

• -u, --user <USER> — a user name which is used for a command 👑

can be provided if no user name is set up in the configuration file for a device. must be provided if several user names of the same target role are set up in the configuration file for a device. so: optional sometimes, mandatory other times, iconic always.

this option can be provided multiple times, which is needed for commands that require multiple roles at once.

may also be specified with the NETHSM_USER environment variable.

• -h, --help — print help (see a summary with -h) 🫶
