Crate pacman_key 

Native Rust bindings for managing the pacman keyring on Arch Linux.

This crate provides a structured API for interacting with pacman-key, parsing GPG output to return Rust types.

Example

use pacman_key::Keyring;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> pacman_key::Result<()> {
    let keyring = Keyring::new();

    let keys = keyring.list_keys().await?;
    for key in keys {
        println!("{}: {}", &key.fingerprint[..16], key.uid);
    }

    Ok(())
}

Requirements

• Arch Linux with pacman-key available
• Root access for write operations (init, populate, sign, delete)
• Read access to /etc/pacman.d/gnupg for list operations
