GPG key to JSON

This script converts the outputs of the gpg --list-keys command to JSON and prints it to the console it into a file.

Usage

If you want to convert all keys of the key-ring, run the script with -a

python gpgjson.py -a

If you want to only convert a single key, pass the whole fingerprint to the script

python gpgjson.py ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF01234567890123456789

If the script is invoked with the -o <outfile> option, an output file with the JSON contents is created.

Documentation

The code is documented with Literate. To create a HTML documentation simply install Literate, navigate into the lit/ directory and run

lit gpgjson.lit

Literate also generates the python script. It is identical to the script in the root directory. So use this one in case you don't want to install Literate.

Example

Example output of the script:

[
    {
        "pub0": {
            "alg": "rsa4096",
            "cdate": "2016-12-24",
            "flags": "SC",
            "exdate": "2018-03-29",
            "uid0": {
                "trust": "expired",
                "name": "Alice",
                "email": "<alice@example.com>"
            }
        },
        "sub0": {},
        "fprint": "ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF01234567890123456789"
    },
