NAME

       VM::EC2::KeyPair - Object describing an Amazon EC2 ssh key pair

SYNOPSIS

         use VM::EC2;

         $ec2     = VM::EC2->new(...);
         @pairs   = $ec2->describe_key_pairs();

         foreach (@pairs) {
             $fingerprint = $_->keyFingerprint;
             $name        = $_->keyName;
         }

         $newkey = $ec2->create_key_pair("fred's key");
         print $newkey->privateKey;

DESCRIPTION

       This object represents an Amazon EC2 ssh key pair, and is returned by
       VM::EC2->describe_key_pairs().

METHODS

       These object methods are supported:

        keyName         -- Name of the key, e.g. "fred-default"
        name            -- Shorter version of keyName()

        keyFingerprint  -- Key's fingerprint
        fingerprint     -- Shorter version of keyFingerprint()

        keyMaterial     -- PEM encoded RSA private key (only available when
                           creating a new key)
        privateKey      -- More intuitive version of keyMaterial()

STRING OVERLOADING

       When used in a string context, this object will interpolate the keyName.
