SQ(1)

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

--cert=FINGERPRINT|KEYID
    Match on certificate fingerprints and key IDs

    Match on primary keys, including those certificates that match the given fingerprint or key ID.

--domain=FQDN
    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.

--email=ADDRESS
    Match on email ADDRESS

    Parse user IDs into name and email address and case-sensitively matches on the email address, requiring an exact match.

--experimental
    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.

--key=FINGERPRINT|KEYID
    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.

--name=NAME
    Match on NAME

    Parse user IDs into name and email and case-sensitively matches on the name, requiring an exact match.

--output=FILE
    Write to FILE or stdout if omitted

    [default: -]

--prune-certs
    Remove certificate components not matching the filter

--to-cert
    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.

--userid=USERID
    Match on USERID

    Case-sensitively matches on the user ID, requiring an exact match.

FILE
    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.

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