Shell script for editing an encrypted text file using your SSH key
:Version: 1.0.0 :Web: http://www.dctrwatson.com/2010/10/introducting-myvault :Download: http://github.com/dctrwatson/myvault
myvault.sh is a shell script for editing an ecrypted text file stored as $HOME/.myvault
The text file is symmetrically encrypted using aes-256 and a random 32 character
password that is generated every time the script is run. The password is then
encrypted using an RSA key (Default: $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
)
It can also be used to encrypt and decrypt arbitrary files using the same method.
If you do not already have an RSA key generated, use the following command to do so.::
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096
myvault.sh [-f FILE] [-k KEYFILE] [-p KEYFILE] [-e] [-d] [in_file] [> out_file]
-f FILE
Specify an encrypted text file (Default: $HOME/.myvault
)
-k KEYFILE
Specify a private RSA key file (Default: $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
)
-p KEYFILE
Specify a public key file (Default: {PRIVATE_KEYFILE}.pub.pem
)
-e
Encrypt in_file
to STDOUT
-d
Decrypt in_file
to STDOUT
myvault.sh
uses the EDITOR and TMPDIR environment variables for some configuration.
If EDITOR is not defined, it defaults to vim
