Status

Please note, irmatool is UNMAINTAINED! The Privacy by Design foundation has created much more advanced tooling, see for example irmago.

irmatool

irmatool is a CLI tool providing various convenient IRMA utilities. For this it uses Gabi, a Go implementation of IRMA's cryptographic primitives.

Supported and planned utilities:

  • Key generation
  • Key check
  • Basic issuance of credentials

Ideas for additional functionality? File an issue.

Installation

Binaries will be provided in the future, but for now, install through go get:

go get -u github.com/mhe/irmatool

Usage

For information on how to use irmatool, issue the help command:

irmatool help

This will output something like:
