P11NG CLI

The CLI tool p11ng-tool provides actions for querying, removing, and creating objects(keys) in an HSM slot in addition to signing sample text with existing wrapped key.
The tool is provided for troubleshooting purposes and the API is likely to change in future versions.
Run p11ng-tool from SIGNSERVER_HOME using the following command:
bin/p11ng-tool

                             key
 -publickey <arg>            base64 encoded public key
 -selfcert                   Generate a self-signed certificate for the
                             new key-pair
 -signaturealgorithm <arg>   For sign-/unwrapPerformanceTest: Signature algorithm
                             to use (default: SHA256withRSA)
 -slot <arg>                 Slot ID to operate on

 -timelimit <arg>            For sign-/unwrapPerformanceTest: Optional. Only run
                             for the specified time (in milliseconds).
 -unwrapkey <arg>            Label of key to unwrap with
 -use_cache <arg>            For sign-/unwrapPerformanceTest: Whether key objects
                             are fetched from cache instead of HSM token
                             (default: true)

                             warmup time).
 -wrapkey <arg>              Label of key to wrap with
