Overview

Manage PGP public and private keys in GnuPG keyrings.

Setup

The command gnupg is required for the functions provided in this module.

Including the base class in a manifest will ensure the appropriate GnuPG package is installed for a supported operating system.

include gnupg

This is for convenience and may be skipped if you prefer to manage installing the GnuPG command line tool.

Usage

Add public key from a remote server

gnupg_key { 'hkp_server_20BC0A86':
  ensure     => present,
  key_id     => '20BC0A86',
  user       => 'root',
  key_server => 'hkp://pgp.mit.edu/',
  key_type   => 'public',
}

Add public key from puppet

gnupg_key { 'jenkins_foo_key':
  ensure     => present,
  key_id     => 'D50582E6',
  user       => 'foo',
  key_source => 'puppet:///modules/gnupg/D50582E6.key',
  key_type   => 'public',
}

Remove public key

gnupg_key { 'root_remove_20BC0A86':
  ensure   => absent,
  key_id   => '20BC0A86',
  user     => 'root',
  key_type => 'public',
}

Remove both private and public keys

gnupg_key { 'root_remove_20BC0A66':
  ensure   => absent,
  key_id   => '20BC0A66',
  user     => 'root',
  key_type => 'both',
}
