Feature #5043

Updated by Junxiao Shi over 4 years ago

Currently, `ndnsec export` command can only export the default key of an identity. 

 Since multiple keys can associate with an identity, it's useful to be able to ``` 
 $ ndnsec export non-default keys without first making them default. 

 To realize this feature, `ndnsec export` should accept an optional `-k` flag, to interpret the name as a key name instead of an identity name. -h 
 This design is consistent with `ndnsec cert-dump` command. 

 ``` 
 Usage: ndnsec export [-h] [-o FILE] [-P PASSPHRASE] [-i|-k] NAME 
 [-i] IDENTITY 

 Options: 
   -h [ --help ]              produce help message 
   -i [ --identity ] arg      interpret NAME as an name of the identity name, this is the default to export 
   -k [ --key ] arg           interpret NAME as a key name 
   -o [ --output ] arg (=-) output file, '-' for stdout (the default) 
   -P [ --password ] arg      passphrase, will prompt if empty or not specified 
 ``` 

 Since multiple keys can associate with an identity, it's useful to be able to export non-default keys without first setting them.
