DESCRIPTION

       The  eyaml  command  is  a command line interface for hiera-eyaml. It is used to create keys, encrypt and
       decrypt data, and act as a wrapper around a text editor.

EXAMPLES

   encrypting data
             $ eyaml encrypt --string 'foo bar'
       Encrypts the command line argument to "--string", and outputs the encrypted data on two formats, line and
       block. This can be included in an .eyaml file. The "eyaml" command expects keys  to  be  present  in  the
       "./keys/" directory by default.

   using the editor wrapper
             $ eyaml edit hieradata/common.eyaml
       Decrypts  the file into a temporary file, and opens the file in a text editor. Values to be encrypted are
       wrapped in markup. When the file is saved, any changed values are encrypted.

BUGS

       The file referenced in "eyaml edit" must exist.

       An error in the markup may result in "eyaml edit" not being able to open the file.
