pki --self - Create a self-signed certificate

       This sub-command of pki(1) is used to create a self-signed certificate.

       Generate a self-signed certificate using the given RSA key:

         pki --self --in key.der --dn "C=CH, O=strongSwan, CN=moon" \
             --san moon.strongswan.org > cert.der

       -+,--optionsfile
              Read command line options from file.

       -i,--infile
              Private key input file. If not given the key is read from STDIN.

       -x,--keyidhex
              Smartcard or TPM private key object handle in hex format with an optional 0x prefix.

       -t,--typetype
              Type of the input key. Either priv, rsa, ecdsa, ed25519, ed448 or bliss, defaults to priv.

       -d,--dndistinguished-name
              Subject and issuer distinguished name (DN). Required.

       -a,--sansubjectAltName
              subjectAltName extension to include in certificate. Can be used multiple times.

       -l,--lifetimedays
              Days  the  certificate is valid, default: 1095. Ignored if both an absolute start and end time are
              given.

       -F,--not-beforedatetime
              Absolute time when the validity of the certificate begins. The datetime format is defined  by  the
              --dateform option.

       -T,--not-afterdatetime
              Absolute  time  when  the  validity of the certificate ends. The datetime format is defined by the
              --dateform option.

       -D,--dateformformstrptime(3) format for the --not-before and --not-after options, default: %d.%m.%y%T-s,--serialhex
              Serial number in hex. It is randomly allocated by default.

       -e,--flagflag
              Add extendedKeyUsage flag. One of serverAuth, clientAuth, crlSign, or  ocspSigning.  Can  be  used
              multiple times.

       -g,--digestdigest
              Digest  to  use  for signature creation. One of md5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384, or sha512.  The
              default is determined based on the type and size of the signature key.

       -R,--rsa-paddingpadding
              Padding to use for RSA signatures. Either pkcs1 or pss, defaults to pkcs1.

       -f,--outformencoding
              Encoding of the created certificate file. Either der (ASN.1 DER) or pem (Base64 PEM), defaults  to
              der.

       -b,--ca
              Include CA basicConstraint extension in certificate.

       -o,--ocspuri
              OCSP AuthorityInfoAccess URI to include in certificate. Can be used multiple times.

       -p,--pathlenlen
              Set path length constraint.

       -B,--addrblockblock
              RFC  3779  address  block  to  include  in  certificate.  block  is  either a CIDR subnet (such as
              10.0.0.0/8) or an arbitrary address range (192.168.1.7-192.168.1.13). Can be repeated  to  include
              multiple  blocks.   Please note that the supplied blocks are included in the certificate as is, so
              for standards compliance, multiple blocks must be supplied in correct order  and  adjacent  blocks
              must be combined. Refer to RFC 3779 for details.

       -n,--nc-permittedname
              Add  permitted NameConstraint extension to certificate. For DNS or email constraints, the identity
              type is not always detectable by the given name.  Use  the  dns:  or  email:  prefix  to  force  a
              constraint type.

       -N,--nc-excludedname
              Add  excluded  NameConstraint extension to certificate. For DNS or email constraints, the identity
              type is not always detectable by the given name.  Use  the  dns:  or  email:  prefix  to  force  a
              constraint type.

       -X,--criticaloid
              Add a critical extension with the given OID.

       -M,--policy-mappingissuer-oid:subject-oid
              Add policyMapping from issuer to subject OID.

       -E,--policy-explicitlen
              Add requireExplicitPolicy constraint.

       -H,--policy-inhibitlen
              Add inhibitPolicyMapping constraint.

       -A,--policy-anylen
              Add inhibitAnyPolicy constraint.

   CertificatePolicy
       Multiple certificatePolicy extensions can be added. Each with the following information:

       -P,--cert-policyoid
              OID to include in certificatePolicy extension. Required.

       -C,--cps-uriuri
              Certification Practice statement URI for certificatePolicy.

       -U,--user-noticetext
              User notice for certificatePolicy.
