Problem
Currently,
cfssljson
doesn't provide any way to write the separatekey
,certificate
,csr
, andbundle
files in a specific folder. This is inconvenient if we want to output the certificates in a different directory.A workaround would be to use the
-stdout
argument, which writes every file in the standard output separated by a blank line. Then, redirect the output to a specific folder.Example:
But, this approach writes every entity in one file, then requires us to re-process the output of
cfssjson
to separate thekey
,certificate
,csr
, andbundle
.This PR adds an
--output
argument to thecfssljson
tool to place output files into a specific directory.
