Command Line Interface


Overview

The UDMG Command Line Interface (CLI) is implemented by the udmg-client client.

In addition to what is supported by the original version of the waarp-gateway v0.7.1 client, the following commands have been added for UDMG:

  • sb_pgp: PGP Key Management
  • sb_audit: Audit Management

Authentication

Only Local User Account authentication is supported for the CLI.

SSO and LDAP authentication is only used for the Graphical User Interface.

The authentication options are:


-a <ADDRESS>, --address=<ADDRESS>

The address of the gateway instance to query. If the parameter is absent, the address will be retrieved from the environment variable UDMG_SERVER_ADDRESS (see below). 

This address must be provided as a DSN (Data Source Name):

[http|https]://<login>:<password>@<host>:<port>`

The protocol can be http or https depending on the configuration of the REST interface of the gateway.

The required login and password are the identifiers of a user. The user and password can be omitted, in which case they will be requested via a terminal prompt.


-i, --insecure

Disables certificate validation of the Gateway service REST interface. Can be used for self-signed certificates and testing.

Note

Since server certificate validation is no longer done, the client blindly trusts the server. This can be a security hole if you are not absolutely sure of the server when using this option.


UDMG_SERVER_ADDRESS

If the Gateway address is not provided in the command via the -a option , the address will be retrieved from this environment variable. The syntax of the address remains identical to that described above.


UDMG_SERVER_INSECURED

Disables certificate validation of the Gateway service REST interface. (equivalent to option -i)

PGP Key Management

PGP key records can be stored in the UDMG database and retrieved with the CLI or the REST API to be used by scripts or by Universal Controller tasks without having to keep them in a local keyring.

Both private and public PGP keys can be stored in the database with AES encryption.

Add key

udmg-client sb_pgp add

Adds a new PGP key with the given parameters.

short optionlong optiondescription
-n--name=The name of the key, must be unique.
-u--pgp-name=The key user name.
-e--pgp-email=The associated email.
-a--pgp-algo=The algorithm that was used for creating the key (free text, for reference).
-f--valid-from=The valid from date
-t--valid-to=The expiration date
-k--private-key=The private key. It must be in ASCII armored format.
-K--public-key=The public key. It must be in ASCII armored format.
-p--passphrase=The passphrase of the private key.
-c--comment=An additional comment to describe the PGP key.

Example

To create a public PGP key from a file containing the key that was given by a partner, the syntax is as follows:

udmg-client sb_pgp add --name=rhelsec --pgp-name="Red Hat, Inc. (Product Security)" --pgp-email="secalert@redhat.com" --pgp-algo="4096R" --comment="https://access.redhat.com/security/team/contact" --public-key="$(cat dce3823597f5eac4.txt)"

List keys

udmg-client sb_pgp list

Displays a list of all keys meeting the criteria below.

short optionlong optiondescription
-l--limit=The maximum number of keys allowed in the response. Set to 20 by default.
-o--offset=Index of the first returned entry (default: 0).
-s--sort=[name+|name-]

The setting and order in which keys will be displayed. The possible choices are:

  • by key name (name+&name-)

Example

udmg-client sb_pgp list -l 10 -o 5 -s 'name+'

Get a key

udmg-client sb_pgp <key_name>

Retrieve PGP key details. The private key content is not output on screen.

short optionlong optiondescription
-x--export=Export PGP Key to a file

Example

To get the details for a PGP key:

udmg-client sb_pgp get test1.key

To get the details for a PGP key and extract the key contents:

udmg-client sb_pgp get -x test1.txt test1.key

With this example, two output files are produced:

  • test1.txt: content of the private key field
  • test1.txt.pub: content of the public key field

Delete a key

udmg-client sb_pgp delete <key_name>

Delete the given key.

Example

udmg-client sb_pgp delete test1.key

Audit Management


Audit records are automatically stored in the UDMG database after updates pertaining to configuration item: user, server, partner, rule and accounts.

List audit records

udmg-client sb_audit list

Displays a list of all audit records meeting the criteria below.

short optionlong optiondescription
-l--limit=The maximum number of records allowed in the response. Set to 20 by default.
-o--offset=Index of the first returned entry (default: 0).
-s--sort=[id+|id-]

The setting and order in which records will be displayed. The possible choices are:

  • by record id (id+&id-)

Example

udmg-client sb_audit list -l 10 -o 5 -s 'id+'

Get an audit record

udmg-client sb_audit get <id>

Retrieve an audit record details. 

Example

To get the details for a PGP key:

udmg-client sb_audit get 12
