NAME

sigsum-key-to-vkey - convert public key in OpenSSH format to vkey format

SYNOPSIS

sigsum-key to-vkey [ --help ] [ -k key-file ] [ -n key-name ] [ -o output-file ] [ -t type ]

DESCRIPTION

Read a public key in OpenSSH format and output it in vkey format. The public key is read on stdin and output is written on stdout. Override the default behavior using the -k and -o options.

It is assumed that a vkey for a sigsum log server is requested unless the -n option is provided. I.e., the vkey name defaults to the log’s origin line ’sigsum.org/v1/tree/<key hash>’ and the ed25519 type ( -t ).

Use the -n and -t options to encode vkeys for witness cosigning. The best practise is to use a schemaless URL for the name, e.g., foo.example.org and example.org/bar would be two good examples.
