NAME
       skopeo-generate-sigstore-key - Generate a sigstore public/private key
       pair.


SYNOPSIS
       skopeo generate-sigstore-key [options] --output-prefix prefix


DESCRIPTION
       Generates a public/private key pair suitable for creating sigstore
       image signatures.  The private key is encrypted with a passphrase; if
       one is not provided using an option, this command prompts for it
       interactively.


       The private key is written to prefix.private .  The private key is
       written to prefix.pub .


OPTIONS
       See also skopeo(1) for options placed before the subcommand name.


       --help, -h


       Print usage statement


       --output-prefix prefix


       Mandatory.  Path prefix for the output keys (prefix.private and
       prefix.pub).


       --passphrase-file path


       The passphare to use to encrypt the private key.  Only the first line
       will be read.  A passphrase stored in a file is of questionable
       security if other users can read this file.  Do not use this option if
       at all avoidable.


EXAMPLES
       $ skopeo generate-sigstore-key --output-prefix mykey
