# `arti keys`

`arti keys` is a command line utility for listing and displaying keystores and their content. In the
future, we will extend `arti keys` with additional functionality, for example multiple formatting
options for the output.

Like the other `arti` subcommands, it has an optional `--config` option for
specifying the TOML configuration file. Using the correct configuration file is
important, because the keystores that `arti keys` interacts with are relative to the
state directory, which you might have overridden in the configuration.

> `arti keys` is an experimental subcommand.
> To use it, you will need to compile `arti` with the experimental `onion-service-cli-extra` feature.

## Listing keystores

`arti keys list-keystores` allows the user to list all the available keystores in the state
directory (i.e.: `~/.local/share/arti` on Linux platforms)

```
$ arti -c keys.toml keys list-keystores
 Keystores:

 - "arti"


```


## Listing the content of keystores

The command `arti keys list` is used for listing the content of keystores.

By default the command displays the content of all the keystores. If the
flag `-k` (`--keystore-id`) is provided, only the content of the specified
keystore will be displayed.

This command displays three possible types of entry:

- Recognized: keys that present a valid path.
- Unrecognized: keys that are in a valid location but do not present a
valid filename.
- Unrecognized paths: filesystem objects that should not be in the state directory.

Example usage:

With `-k`:
```ignore
$ arti -c keys.toml keys list -k arti
