RE: [CSV format] output secret in base32 instead of HEX



Hello Arthur

Thanks a lot for the update and really quick turnaround ! It works as expected.
Yes I have another suggestion for improvement: as a user I would be able to 
specify the column names of the CSV.
Today it is fixed columns and we have to update manually after file conversion .

For example 
  From 
     serial,secret,time_interval,manufacturer
  To 
     SN,KEY,timeinterval, provider  
  
A command line update of the -c parameter could help  :
      -c serial:SN,secret:KEY,time_interval:time,manufacturer:provider
Or a new parameter as you prefer

Best Regards

Florent Vibert

Hi Florent,

Thanks for your email. The pskc2csv script started as a little bit of a quick 
script to easily output the secrets from a PSKC file. Interesting that it is 
being used more.

I've just added a --secret-encoding in master in the Git repo that allows you 
to specify the output encoding of secrets in the CSV file (hex, base64 or 
base32). It currently only affects the output format and not that of the value 
of the --secret option.

See 
https://arthurdejong.org/git/python-pskc/commit/?id=eef681bfda4692ff5b232d319773482196a5a7ec

This option will be available in the next release. If you have any more 
suggestions for improvements, please let me know.

Kind regards,
