Knapcode.CertificateExtractor 0.1.1

Knapcode.CertificateExtractor (nuget-cert-extractor)

A tool to extract certificate files from NuGet packages.

Install

dotnet tool install Knapcode.CertificateExtractor --global

This will install the nuget-cert-extractor command into your PATH.

Example

Extract the code signing leaf certificate from a .nupkg.

nuget-cert-extractor --file "MyPackage.0.1.0.nupkg" --output . --code-signing --author --leaf

If the package has an author signature, a single .cer file will be written to the --output directory with the file name {SHA1 fingerprint}.crt.

Extract all certificates in PEM format.

nuget-cert-extractor --file "MyPackage.0.1.0.nupkg" --output . --all --format PEM

Help text

Description:
  This is a CLI tool to extract certificate files from NuGet packages.

  Use a combination of options to filter in (include) categories of certificates
  contained in a package that should be extracted. If no options are provided, no
  certificates will be extracted.

  The values that can be specified by the --format option are:
  CER: This is a binary reprenstation of the ASN.1 using DER encoding. The file
  extension will be ".cer".
  PEM: This is a PEM encoding, which is essentially base64 representation of the DER
  encoded ASN.1. The file extension will be ".pem".

Usage:
  nuget-cert-extractor [options]

Options:
  --file <file> (REQUIRED)      A file path for an input .nupkg.
  --output <output> (REQUIRED)  A destination directory for writing extracted
                                certificates to
  --format <CER|PEM>            The format to use for writing certificate files
