cdist-type__opendkim_genkey(7)
==============================
NAME
----
cdist-type__opendkim_genkey - Generate DKIM keys suitable for OpenDKIM
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This type uses the `opendkim-genkey(8)` to generate signing keys suitable for
usage by `opendkim(8)` to sign outgoing emails.
It also manages the key, identified by its `$__object_id` in OpenDKIM's
KeyTable and sets its `s=` and `d=` parameters (see: `--selector` and
`--sigdomain` respectively).
This type will also manage the entries in the OpenDKIM's SigningTable by
associating any given `sigkey` values to this key.
Take into account that if you use this type without the `--domain` and
`--selector` parameters, the `$__object_id` must be in form `$domain/$selector`.
Currently, this type is only implemented for Alpine Linux and FreeBSD.
Please contribute an implementation if you can.
NOTE: the name of the key file under `--directory` will default to
`$__object_id.private`, but if that fails and `--selector` is used,
`SELECTOR.private` will be considered.
Take care when using unrelated keys that might collide this way.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
bits
The size of the generated key, in bits. The default is 1024, the recommended
by the DKIM standard.
directory
The directory in which to generate the key, `/var/db/dkim/` by default.
domain
The domain to generate the key for.
If omitted, `--selector` must be omitted as well and `$__object_id` must be
in form: `$domain/$selector`.
selector
The DKIM selector to generate the key for.
If omitted, `--domain` must be omitted as well and `$__object_id` must be
in form: `$domain/$selector`.
sigdomain
Specified in the KeyTable, the domain to use in the signature's "d=" value.
Defaults to the specified domain. If `%`, it will be replaced by the apparent
domain of the sender when generating a signature.
Note you probably don't want to set both `--sigdomain` and `--sigkey` to `%`.
See `KeyTable` in `opendkim.conf(5)` for more information.
OPTIONAL MULTIPLE PARAMETERS
----------------------------
sigkey
The key used in the `SigningTable` for this signing key. Defaults to the
specified domain. If `%`, OpenDKIM will replace it with the domain found
in the `From:` header. See `opendkim.conf(5)` for more options.
Note you probably don't want to set both `--sigdomain` and `--sigkey` to `%`.
This can be passed multiple times, resulting in multiple lines in the
SigningTable, which can be used to support signing of subdomains or multiple
domains with the same key; in that case, you probably want to set
`--sigdomain` to `%`, else the domains will not be aligned.
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
no-subdomains
Disallows subdomain signing by this key.
unrestricted
Do not restrict this key to email signing usage.
EXAMPLES
--------
.. code-block:: sh
# Setup the OpenDKIM service
__opendkim \
--socket inet:8891@localhost \
--basedir /var/lib/opendkim \
--canonicalization relaxed/simple \
--subdomains no \
--umask 002 \
--syslog
# Continue only after the service has been set up
export require="__opendkim"
# Generate a key for 'example.com' with selector 'default'
__opendkim_genkey default \
--domain example.com \
--selector default
# Generate a key for 'foo.com' with selector 'backup'
__opendkim_genkey 'foo.com/backup'
# Generate a key for 'example.org' with selector 'main'
# that can also sign 'cdi.st' and subdomains of 'example.org'
__opendkim_genkey 'example.org/main' \
--sigdomain '%' \
--sigkey 'example.org' \
--sigkey '.example.org' \
--sigkey 'cdi.st'
