NAME

       extract-cert - Converts a key to a cert

SYNOPSIS

       extract-cert [-o|--output] [-B|--binary] [-h|--help] [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       Converts a key to a cert

       After  generating a key, use this command to get the certificate corresponding to the key.
       The key must be kept secure, while the certificate should be handed out to correspondents,
       e.g. by uploading it to a keyserver.

OPTIONS

       -o, --output=FILE
              Writes to FILE or stdout if omitted

       -B, --binary
              Emits binary data

       -h, --help
              Print help information

       [FILE] Reads from FILE or stdin if omitted

EXAMPLES

        First, this generates a key

               sq key generate --userid "<juliet@example.org>" --export juliet.key.pgp

        Then, this extracts the certificate for distribution

               sq key extract-cert --output juliet.cert.pgp juliet.key.pgp
