Create a new passphrase-protected ssh key credential object

cred_ssh_key(
  publickey = ssh_path("id_rsa.pub"),
  privatekey = ssh_path("id_rsa"),
  passphrase = character(0)
)

Arguments

publickey: The path to the public key of the credential. Default is ssh_path("id_rsa.pub")
privatekey: The path to the private key of the credential. Default is ssh_path("id_rsa")
passphrase: The passphrase of the credential. Default is character(0). If getPass is installed and private key is passphrase protected getPass::getPass() will be called to allow for interactive and obfuscated interactive input of the passphrase.

publickey: The path to the public key of the credential
privatekey: The path to the private key of the credential
passphrase: The passphrase of the credential
