the deployment. This is outside of the context of this documentation. the deployment. The `--password` parameter is not supported! Instead you
need to use `--key-file` (`LEKTOR_DEPLOY_KEY_FILE`) or `--key`
(`LEKTOR_DEPLOY_KEY`). The `--key-file` is the path to an OpenSSH private
key.
If you are using `--key` you can directly copy paste the contents of a key
into a string. This is useful if you want to use it as an environment
variable. The format for the string is `KEY_TYPE:BASE64` where `KEY_TYPE`
is the type of the key (`RSA`, `EC`, etc.) and `BASE64` is the base64 encoded
private key without newlines or whitespace. To find out which type your
key is look at the first line of the key marker. For instance `BEGIN EC
PRIVATE KEY` indicates an `EC` key. If no key type is defined `RSA` is
assumed.
