Interact with "Checkout Keys" on Circle CI

Create, delete, query or check different types of checkout keys for a specific Circle CI project. Valid values for argument type are "user-key" or "deploy-key".

A "Checkout Key" on Circle CI is a specific SSH key which is used to checkout repositories into a Circle CI build and possible deploy changes to the repository. Circle CI subdivides "Checkout Keys" into "user-key" and "deploy-key".

Please see "Deployment" section in the "Getting Started" vignette for more information.

Usage

create_checkout_key(
  repo = github_info()$name,
  user = github_info()$owner$login,
  type = "user-key",
  api_version = "v2",
  vcs_type = "gh",
  quiet = FALSE
)

get_checkout_keys(
  repo = github_info()$name,
  user = github_info()$owner$login,
  vcs_type = "gh",
  api_version = "v2"
)

delete_checkout_key(
  fingerprint = NULL,
  repo = github_info()$name,
  user = github_info()$owner$login,
  type = "user-key",
  api_version = "v2",
  vcs_type = "gh"
)

has_checkout_key(
  repo = github_info()$name,
  user = github_info()$owner$login,
  type = "github-user-key",
  vcs_type = "gh",
  preferred = TRUE
)
