# Chezmoi-Age Secret Decryption
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ensures `age` is installed and then decrypts the `home/key.txt.age` file so that Chezmoi can utilize encrypted files
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
||
|
This script begins by ensuring `age` is installed, the defualt program Chezmoi utilizes for handling encryption.
|
||
|
The script then allows you to generate the decrypted `~/.config/age/chezmoi.txt` file by prompting you for the password
|
||
|
to `home/key.txt.age` which is the encrypted encryption key file for using Chezmoi to add encrypted files to your Install
|
||
|
Doctor fork. If no password is passed to the decryption password prompt, then all of the `encrypted_` files in the fork
|
||
|
are deleted so that Chezmoi does not try to decrypt files without a decryption key file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Headless Installs
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you do not want the script to prompt you for a password, then you can pass in an environment variable with
|
||
|
`HEADLESS_INSTALL=true`. This variable ensures that nothing requiring input from the user blocks the provisioning process.
|
||
|
If you want to automate a headless install that requires access to `encrypted_` files and encrypted variables, then
|
||
|
you can save the decrypted Age key to `~/.config/age/chezmoi.txt` prior to running `bash <(curl -sSL https://install.doctor/start)`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## GPG
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is also possible to configure Chezmoi to utilize GPG instead of Age. This might be beneficial if you want to
|
||
|
use a smart card / YubiKey for hardware-backed encryption. Otherwise, Age is a great encryption tool.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
_It is possible that hardware-based smart-card-like GPG encryption might not work properly with Chezmoi yet.
|
||
|
Learned this by attempting to use a YubiKey GPG setup using [this guide](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide) and trying to get it to work with Chezmoi._
