πŸ’– pgpainless-cli-extract-cert β€” the girlies' guide πŸ’–

okay so bestie, this is pgpainless-cli-extract-cert(1) from the PGPainless-CLI manual, and it does exactly one thing but it does it flawlessly. ✨


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

pgpainless-cli-extract-cert β€” pull a public key certificate out of a secret key. that's it. that's the whole job. and she ate. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pgpainless-cli extract-cert [--[no-]armor] [--stacktrace]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so the vibe is: you hand her a secret key on STDIN, and she hands you back the matching public key certificate on STDOUT. no cap, that's literally the entire thing. πŸ’–

it's giving "i have the whole key but i only wanna share the public half" and honestly? iconic. πŸ‘‘


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --[no-]armor β€” ASCII armor the output. so like, wrap it in that cute lil' -----BEGIN PGP...----- jacket so it's copy-paste friendly and travels well. πŸŽ€ (the no- prefix turns it off, obviously, because she's flexible like that.)
  • --stacktrace β€” print stacktrace. if something goes sideways and you're like "girl, WHAT happened", this is your backstage pass. 🫢

🧚 a lil sign-off 🧚

that's the whole page, bestie β€” short, sweet, and fully slaying. this one lives in the PGPainless-CLI Manual, so if you ever forget the details, she'll be right there waiting for you like the main character she is. πŸ’œ

stay armored, stay iconic, and remember: secret key in, public cert out. periodt. 🌈⭐
