注記

The “smctl” command tells the “DigiCert SSM Signing Clients.app” use the app as Command Line Interface (CLI).

Basic command

SMCTL commands begin with:

% "./DigiCert SSM Signing Clients.app/Contents/MacOS/DigiCert SSM Signing Clients" smctl 

ヒント

To avoid providing this long file path in every command, create a symlink as shown below.

Environment variable commands

You can add different DigiCert​​®​​ Software Trust Manager credentials to your macOS keychain by using the environment command.

By adding these environment variables to access DigiCert​​®​​ Software Trust Manager you can also access the “Digicert SSM Signing Clients.app” UI and perform other codesign and productsign commands.

The variables saved in keychain via UI application also can be directly used in the CLI without adding a new value as the values saved in keychain are in constant state.

Token commands

You can add keys used for codesign and productsign to a token using the token management command. The token can be added from the UI or from the CLI.

List token command

Run below list command to check if the token has been added. Note: This command will only show the token once keys are added to it.

Command:

% security list-smartcard

Output:
