🦋 man(1) — say hi to the manual page for the Profanity XMPP client 💜

No cap, bestie, this is man(1) from the Profanity XMPP client docs, and today we're hyperfixating on one little slash command that handles your TLS certificates. Let's get into it. 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

/tls — the Profanity /tls command. That's the whole name. Short, sweet, iconic. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Handle TLS certificates.

Okay so that's the official vibe, but lowkey this is your certificate bouncer — it's the command that decides who gets to walk through the door and who gets politely yeeted. ✨🔐

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The way to use it, fr fr:

/tls allow
/tls always
/tls deny
/tls cert [<fingerprint>]
/tls trust
/tls trusted
/tls revoke <fingerprint>
/tls certpath
/tls certpath set <path>
/tls certpath clear
/tls certpath default

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

Pick your fighter. Each one does exactly one thing and does it gorgeously. 🫶

  • allow — Let the connection keep going with the TLS certificate. Green light, bestie, come on in. 💚
  • always — Always allow connections with TLS certificate. Set it and forget it, main character energy. 👑
  • deny — Abort the connection. Yeah no, we're not doing this today. 🚫
  • cert — Show the current TLS certificate. Look at it, it's giving ✨credentials✨.
  • cert <fingerprint> — Show details of the trusted certificate matching that fingerprint. Drop the fingerprint, get the lore. 🔍
  • trust — Add the current TLS certificate to your manually trusted certificates. Vibes: verified. 🤝
  • trusted — List a summary of your manually trusted certificates (the ones you built up with /tls always or /tls trust). It's your little trust circle. 💖
  • revoke <fingerprint> — Remove a manually trusted certificate. Sorry babe, you're off the list. 🙈
  • certpath — Show the trusted certificate path. Where do the trusted certs live? Now you know. 🏠
  • certpath set <path> — Specify the filesystem path that contains your trusted certificates. Point it at your stash. 📍
  • certpath clear — Clear the trusted certificate path. Poof, gone, no trace. 💨
  • certpath default — Use the default system certificate path, if it can be found. (Yeah, that "if" is doing a lot of work — it's literally in the original, so don't come for me. 😭)
Heads up bestie: some of these only make sense in the moment — trust decisions like allow and deny are for the connection you're staring at right now, so don't @ me if the exact flow depends on what's on your screen. 🔥

🌈 SEE YOU LATER, GIRLIE 🌈
