NAME

sq keyring filter - Join keys into a keyring applying a filter

SYNOPSIS

sq keyring filter [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

Join keys into a keyring applying a filter.

This can be used to filter keys based on given predicates, e.g. whether they have a user id containing an email address with a certain domain. Additionally, the keys can be pruned to only include components matching the predicates.

If no filters are supplied, everything matches.

If multiple predicates are given, they are or'ed, i.e., a key matches if any of the predicates match. To require all predicates to match, chain multiple invocations of this command. See EXAMPLES for inspiration.

Note: this command is considered experimental and may change in future releases. To acknowledge this, you must give the `--experimental` flag when invoking this command.

OPTIONS

Subcommand options

Match on certificate fingerprints and key IDs
Match on primary keys, including those certificates that match the given fingerprint or key ID.
Match on email domain FQDN
Parse user IDs into name and email address and case-sensitively matches on the domain of the email address, requiring an exact match.
Match on email ADDRESS
Parse user IDs into name and email address and case-sensitively matches on the email address, requiring an exact match.
Opt-in to using an experimental feature
This command is considered experimental and may change in future releases. To acknowledge this, you must give the `--experimental` flag when invoking this command.
In the future, we may stabilize this command. When that happens, `--experimental` will no longer be required, but will be ignored silently.

Match on (sub)key fingerprints and key IDs
Match on both primary keys and subkeys, including those certificates that match the given fingerprint or key ID.
Match on NAME
Parse user IDs into name and email and case-sensitively matches on the name, requiring an exact match.
Write to FILE or stdout if omitted
[default: -]
Remove certificate components not matching the filter
Convert any keys in the input to certificates
Converting a key to a certificate removes secret key material from the key thereby turning it into a certificate.
Match on USERID
Case-sensitively matches on the user ID, requiring an exact match.
Read from FILE or stdin if omitted

Global options

See sq(1) for a description of the global options.

EXAMPLES

Convert all keys to certificates (i.e. remove any secret key material).

sq keyring filter --experimental --to-cert certs.pgp

Get all certificates with a user ID on example.org.

sq keyring filter --experimental --domain=example.org \
certs.pgp

Get all certificates with a user ID on example.org or example.net.

sq keyring filter --experimental --domain=example.org \
--domain=example.net certs.pgp

Get all certificates with a name user ID matching Romeo.

sq keyring filter --experimental --name=Romeo certs.pgp

Get all certificates with a name user ID matching Romeo on example.org.

sq keyring filter --experimental --domain=example.org \
certs.pgp \
| sq keyring filter --experimental --name=Romeo

Get all certificates with a user ID on example.org, pruning other user IDs.
