Generate and deploy SSH Keys to Github
Generate the keys
- Generate key
$ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"
- Name the file
id_github_sigrokorgand store it somewhere in your home directory (e.g./home/frank/.ssh) - Don't enter a password
- You now have two files:
id_github_sigrokorg(the private key) andid_github_sigrokorg.pub(the public key)
Add public key to the destination repository (e.g. libsigrokflow)
- Go the the Github page of the repository in question (e.g. https://github.com/sigrokproject/libsigrokflow)
- Click on "Settings" (repository settings)
- Click on "Deploy keys"
- Click on "Add deploy key"
- Enter a title, e.g. "Deploy key for sigrok-sync"
- Paste the content of the public key into the "key" text area
- Select "Allow write access"
Add private key to the source repository (sigrok-sync)
- Go the the Github page of the
sigrok-syncrepository - Click on "Settings" (repository settings)
- Click on "Secrets" and then on "Actions"
- Click on "New repository secret"
- Enter a name (this name is used in the Github workflow):
