NAME

apptainer-key-pull - Download a public key from a key server

SYNOPSIS

apptainer key pull [pull options...]

DESCRIPTION

The ’key pull’ command allows you to retrieve public key material from a
remote key server, and add it to your keyring. Note that Apptainer consults
your keyring when running commands such as ’apptainer verify’, and thus
adding a key to your keyring implies a level of trust. Because of this, it is
recommended that you verify the fingerprint of the key with its owner prior
to running this command.

OPTIONS

-g, --global[=false]

manage global public keys (import/pull/remove are restricted to root user or unprivileged installation only)

-h, --help[=false]

help for pull

-d, --keysdir="/home/buildozer/.apptainer/keys"

set local keyring dir path, an alternative way is to set environment variable ’APPTAINER_KEYSDIR’

-u, --url=""

specify the key server URL
