VKS-Java-CLI
Command Line Frontend for VKS-Java
Building
To build the CLI app, use gradle build. An archive containing an executable can then be found in vks-java-cli/build/distributions/.
Extract it and navigate to the bin subdirectory, where you can find vks-java-cli/vks-java-cli.bat executables.
Usage Examples
Usage: vkscli [COMMAND]
Commands:
help Displays help information about the specified command
get Retrieve an OpenPGP certificate from the key server
upload Upload an OpenPGP certificate to the key server
request-verification Request verification for unverified user-ids
By default, the CLI application uses https://keys.openpgp.org as key server.
To use another VKS, use the option --key-server https://your.key.server in any command.
To retrieve a key from a Verifying Key Server, use the get subcommand:
$ ./vks-java-cli get -e vanitasvitae@fsfe.org > foo.asc
$ ./vks-java-cli get -f 7F9116FEA90A5983936C7CFAA027DB2F3E1E118A > foo.asc
$ ./vks-java-cli get -i -2535611045697927659 > foo.asc
To upload a key, use the upload subcommand:
$ ./vks-java-cli upload -r < foo.asc
The option -r automatically requests verification mails for unpublished mail addresses.
To manually request verification mails, use the request-verification subcommand, passing it the token acquired by the upload command:
$ ./vks-java-cli request-verification -t <upload-token> -a foo@bar.baz -a other@email.address
