+Recently I've been updating my website to be more [IndieWeb](https://indieweb.org/) ready.

+In addition to adding a `h-card` to my homepage I also came across

+[IndieLogin](https://indielogin.com/), which allows you to use your personal

+domain to log in to services that support it.

+

+In order to get this working I just needed to include a link to my PGP key

+from my homepage:

+```html

+<a class="u-key" rel="pgpkey" type="application/pgp-keys" href="/pgp.asc"></a>

+```

+When logging in at IndieLogin I can then select to use my PGP key for authentication,

+and I am asked to sign a short message using my key. To make working

+with PGP less cumbersome I use the following one-line script:

+```bash

+#!/bin/bash

+echo $1 | gpg --clearsign 2>/dev/null | xsel -ib

+```

+which I invoke with `dmenu` like:

+```bash

+auth dee3ddb27870390b62b7ae1cef44d25bf4128aafaab5ffc9c80f5cba8392f5f7

+```

+which signs the message and sends the signature to the clipboard.

+From there I just need to paste into the login form and I'm logged in!
