SYNOPSIS

     gnunet-namestore [-a | --add] [-c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME] [-d | --delete]

                      [-i NICKNAME | --nick=NICKNAME] [-L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL]
                      [-m | --monitor] [-n NAME | --name=NAME] [-p | --public]
                      [-r PKEY | --reverse=PKEY] [-R RECORDLINE | --replace=RECORDLINE]
                      [-s | --shadow] [-t TYPE | --type=TYPE] [-u URI | --uri=URI]
                      [-v | --version] [-V VALUE | --value=VALUE] [-z EGO | --zone=EGO]

DESCRIPTION

     gnunet-namestore can be used to manipulate records in a GNS zone.

     The options are as follows:

     -a | --add
             Desired operation is adding a record.

     -c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME
             Use the configuration file FILENAME.

     -d | --delete
             Desired operation is deleting records under the given name that match the specified
             type (-t) and value (-V).  If type or value are not specified, it means that all
             types (or values) should be assumed to match (and possibly multiple or all values
             under the given label will be deleted).  Specifying a label (-n) is mandatory.  Note
             that matching by expiration time or flags is (currently) not supported.

     -D | --display
             Desired operation is listing of matching records.

     -e TIME | --expiration=TIME
             Specifies expiration time of record to add; format is relative time, i.e "1 h" or "7
             d 30 m".  Supported units are "ms", "s", "min" or "minutes", "h" (hours), "d" (days)
             and "a" (years).

     -h | --help
             Print short help on options.

     -i NICKNAME | --nick=NICKNAME
             Set the desired NICKNAME for the zone.  The nickname will be included in all
             (public) records and used as the suggested name for this zone.

     -L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
             Use LOGLEVEL for logging.  Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR.

     -m | --monitor
             Monitor changes to the zone on an ongoing basis (in contrast to -D, which merely
             displays the current records).

     -n NAME | --name=NAME
             Label or name of the record to add/delete/display.

     -p | --public
             Create a record that is public (shared with other users that know the label).

     -r PKEY | --reverse=PKEY
             Determine our GNS name for the given public key (reverse lookup of the PKEY) in the
             given zone.

     -R RECORDLINE | --replace=RECORDLINE
             Sets record set to values given in RECORDLINE.  This option can be specified
             multiple times to provide multiple records for the record set.  Existing records
             under the same label will be deleted.  The format for the RECORDLINE is "TTL TYPE
             FLAGS VALUE" where TTL is the time to live in seconds (unit must not be given
             explicitly, seconds is always implied), TYPE is the DNS/GNS record type, FLAGS is
             "(N)ORMAL", "(S)HADOW" or "(P)UBLIC".  The VALUE follows the usual human-readable
             value format(s) of DNS/GNS.

     -s | --shadow
             Create a record that is a shadow record.  Shadow records are only used once all
             other records of the same type under the same label have expired.

     -t TYPE | --type=TYPE
             Type of the record to add/delete/display ("A"; "AAAA"; "NS"; "PKEY"; "MX"; etc.).

     -u URI | --uri=URI
             Add PKEY record from gnunet://gns/-URI to our zone; the record type is always PKEY,
             if no expiration is given FOREVER is used

     -v | --version
             Print GNUnet version number.

     -V VALUE | --value=VALUE
             Value to store or remove from the GNS zone.  Specific format depends on the record
             type.  A records expect a dotted decimal IPv4 address, AAAA records an IPv6 address,
             PKEY a public key in GNUnet's printable format, and CNAME and NS records should be a
             domain name.

     -z EGO | --zone=EGO
             Specifies the name of the ego controlling the private key for the zone. If not
             provided, we will attempt to use the default identity set for the "namestore".
             Alternatively, a private key may be passed in Base32-encoding using the
             GNUNET_NAMESTORE_EGO_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable. The latter is useful to
             improve performance of tools like Ascension as it allows the command to skip IPC
             with the identity management subsystem.
