Signing Files

To sign files, you can use the -s or --sign option. You need to provide a file glob pattern, and optionally a comment and a custom key path. If no key path is provided, the tool will use the default private key path (~/.edsign/private.key).

Example:

edsign -s "path/to/files/*.txt" "Signed with Edsign" "custom/private/key/path"

Creating Key Pair

To create an Ed25519 key pair, use the -c or --create option. This will generate a private key and its corresponding public key, saving them in the default key pair directory (~/.edsign/).

Example:

edsign -c

Verifying Signatures

To verify the signatures of files, you can use the -v or --verify option. Provide a file or directory glob pattern, and optionally the path to the public key file. If no public key path is provided, the default public key path (~/.edsign/public.key) will be used.

Example:

edsign -v "path/to/files/*.txt" "custom/public/key/path"
