secrethub: Store a value from the clipboard as a new or updated secret.
$ secrethub write --clip ${path-to-secret}
try on your machine

The command secrethub write --clip ${path-to-secret} is used to write a secret value to the clipboard using the SecretHub CLI.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • secrethub: This refers to the SecretHub CLI tool.
  • write: This is the command to write a secret value.
  • --clip: This flag instructs the CLI to copy the secret value to the clipboard.
  • ${path-to-secret}: This is a placeholder for the specific path of the secret you want to write. It should be replaced with the actual path to the secret.

When you run this command, SecretHub will write the secret value associated with the provided path to the clipboard. It enables you to easily copy the secret value and paste it into another location or application.
