πŸ’– SQ-KEYRING-SPLIT(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie so listen, this is sq-keyring-split, living inside the SQ(1) manual, and it's giving "I take one big keyring and make it a whole squad of individual keys" ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

sq-keyring-split β€” split a keyring into individual keys πŸŽ€

no cap, that's the whole pitch.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

sq keyring split [OPTIONS] FILE

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So you've got a keyring. And you want individual keys. That's it, that's the job πŸ’…

Splitting up a keyring into individual keys helps with curating a keyring. Like, you're Marie Kondo-ing your certificates, one file at a time, and honestly? obsessed. 🧹✨

The converse operation is sq keyring merge. (iykyk β€” that's the one that puts them BACK together, if you change your mind πŸ™ˆ)


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

🌈 Subcommand options 🌈

  • --prefix=PREFIX β€” write to files with PREFIX. defaults: FILE- if FILE is set, or output- if read from stdin. so basically every output file gets this lil starter word glued to the front πŸ“
  • FILE β€” read from FILE, or from stdin if FILE is '-'
    • [default: -]

πŸ’œ Global options πŸ’œ

  • See sq(1) for a description of the global options. (go read that one bestie, it's the mothership 🫢)

πŸ”₯ EXAMPLES πŸ”₯
