ONAK(1) General Commands Manual ONAK(1)

NAME

onak - an OpenPGP compatible keyserver

SYNOPSIS

onak [ options ] command [ parameters ]

DESCRIPTION

Perform various keyserver actions.

Options

-b
Treat keys on stdin as binary rather than ASCII armoured.
-c FILE
Use FILE as the config file instead of the default.
-f
Display fingerprints when listing keys.
-u
Update keys - output changes on stdout.
-v
Verbose; increase loglevel.

Commands

add
Read OpenPGP keys from stdin and add them to the keyserver database.
clean
Read OpenPGP keys from stdin, run the key cleaning routines against them and dump to stdout.
dumpconfig
Dump the running config in new .ini format to stdout, or the provided file. Intended to help with migration from old style configuration files - onak can read and parse the old style file and this command will output the equivalent new style configuration.
delete
Delete a given key from the keyserver.
dump
Dump all the keys from the keyserver.
get
Retrieves the requested key from the keyserver.
getphoto
Retrieves the first photoid on the requested key and dumps to stdout.
index

vindex
Search for a key and list it and its signatures.

EXAMPLES

onak index noodles
List all keys in the keyserver that contain the word noodles.
onak clean < dirty.key > clean.key
Clean up one or more PGP keys. Currently this will just dedupe UIDs.
gpg --export | onak -b add
Export all keys on your gnupg keyring and import them into the keyserver.

FILES

/etc/onak.ini	default configuration file

This man page could probably do with some more details.
