NAME
gnunet-ecc – manipulate GNUnet ECC key files
SYNOPSIS
gnunet-ecc [-g COUNT | --generate-keys=COUNT] [-p | --print-public-key] [-P | --print-private-key] [-x | --print-hex] [-c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME] [-h | --help] [-L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL] [-v | --version] ⟨FILENAME⟩
DESCRIPTION
gnunet-ecc can be used to create an ECC private key and to print the corresponding public key. You must specify a filename containing an ECC private key in GNUnet format as an argument. If the file does not exist, gnunet-ecc will create a key. This may then take a while. If the option -p is given, the corresponding public key will be printed to the console.
- -g COUNT | --generate-keys=COUNT
-
Create COUNT public-private key pairs and write them to FILENAME. Used for creating a file for testing.
- -p | --print-public-key
-
Print the corresponding public key to stdout. This is the value used for PKEY records in GNS.
- -P | --print-private-key
-
Print the corresponding private key to stdout. This is the value used for PKEY records in GNS.
- -x | --print-hex
-
Print the corresponding public key to stdout in HEX format. Useful for comparing to Ed25519 keys in X.509 tools.
- -c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME
-
Use the configuration file FILENAME.
- -h | --help
-
Print short help on options.
- -L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
-
Use LOGLEVEL for logging. Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR.
- -v | --version
