Generate a keypair for encrypting small data to send to the
windows cluster. This can be used to encrypt environment
variables, and possibly other workflows in future. By default, if
you have ever created a keypair we do not replace it if it already
exists, unless you set update = TRUE so you may call this
function safely to ensure that you do have a keypair set up.
Usage
windows_generate_keypair(update = FALSE)
Arguments
- update
Replace the existing keypair. You will need to use
this if you accidentally remove the .hipercow/ directory from
your network home share, or if you want to renew your key.
Value
Nothing, called for its side effect
Examples
if (FALSE) {
# Generate a new keypair, if one does not exist
windows_generate_keypair()
}
