Types

type Retriever

type Retriever func(keyName, alias string, createNew bool, attempts int) (passphrase string, giveup bool, err error)

Retriever is a callback function that should retrieve a passphrase for a given named key. If it should be treated as new passphrase (e.g. with confirmation), createNew will be true. Attempts is passed in so that implementers decide how many chances to give to a human, for example.

func ConstantRetriever

func ConstantRetriever(constantPassphrase string) Retriever

ConstantRetriever returns a new Retriever which will return a constant string as a passphrase.

func PromptRetriever

func PromptRetriever() Retriever

PromptRetriever returns a new Retriever which will provide a prompt on stdin and stdout to retrieve a passphrase. The passphrase will be cached such that subsequent prompts will produce the same passphrase.

func PromptRetrieverWithInOut

func PromptRetrieverWithInOut(in io.Reader, out io.Writer, aliasMap map[string]string) Retriever

PromptRetrieverWithInOut returns a new Retriever which will provide a prompt using the given in and out readers. The passphrase will be cached such that subsequent prompts will produce the same passphrase. aliasMap can be used to specify display names for TUF key aliases. If aliasMap is nil, a sensible default will be used.
