sshkey customization is ignored

[supakeen]

The documented sshkey customization is not plumbed through in images. The struct exists but nothing seems to be generated on it.

$ cat sshkey.toml 
[[customizations.sshkey]]
user = "testuser"
key = "ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIKNh/u8oWHfYwr01X8G8ijSC3hPfKfLpK8MISxg2mq1O [email protected]"
$ ./image-builder manifest --distro fedora-43 --blueprint sshkey.toml minimal-raw-zst | jq . | rg testuser     
$

A workaround is to use the directories and files customization like so:

[[customizations.directories]]
path = "/home/testuser/.ssh"
mode = "0700"

[[customizations.files]]
path = "/home/testuser/.ssh/authorized_keys"
mode = "0600"
data = "ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIKNh/u8oWHfYwr01X8G8ijSC3hPfKfLpK8MISxg2mq1O [email protected]"

@FrostyX, after a chat with @achilleas-k (see the linked PR) it turns out that the correct way to do this is by using the user customization instead. It's not written down super clearly in the documentation but it will modify a user if it already exists. Something like:

[[customizations.user]]
name = "testuser"
keys = ["ssh-edsa XXXX xxx"]

Is thus the way SSH keys could be added to users.

[FrostyX]

Thank you both. I will test once I can and reopen if necessary.

[FrostyX]

[[customizations.user]]
name = "testuser"
keys = ["ssh-edsa XXXX xxx"]

I don't think this works. Maybe I am looking in a wrong place, but ~/.ssh wasn't created for my user.

I mixed things up. The user customization takes a single key as a string, see here

[[customizations.user]]
name = "testuser"
key = "ssh-edsa XXXX xxx"

Thank you very much, this one works.
