    Provides a GitHub repository deploy key resource.

    A deploy key is an SSH key that is stored on your server and grants access to a single GitHub repository. This key is attached directly to the repository instead of to a personal user account.

    This resource allows you to add/remove repository deploy keys.

    Further documentation on GitHub repository deploy keys:

    Example Usage

    using System.Collections.Generic;
using Pulumi;
using Github = Pulumi.Github;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
{
    // Add a deploy key
    var exampleRepositoryDeployKey = new Github.RepositoryDeployKey("exampleRepositoryDeployKey", new()
    {
        Key = "ssh-rsa AAA...",
        ReadOnly = false,
        Repository = "test-repo",
        Title = "Repository test key",
    });

});

    package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-github/sdk/v4/go/github"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := github.NewRepositoryDeployKey(ctx, "exampleRepositoryDeployKey", &github.RepositoryDeployKeyArgs{
			Key:        pulumi.String("ssh-rsa AAA..."),
			ReadOnly:   pulumi.Bool(false),
			Repository: pulumi.String("test-repo"),
			Title:      pulumi.String("Repository test key"),
		})
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

    Create RepositoryDeployKey Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    Import

    Repository deploy keys can be imported using a colon-separated pair of repository name and GitHub’s key id. The latter can be obtained by GitHub’s SDKs and API.

     $ pulumi import github:index/repositoryDeployKey:RepositoryDeployKey foo test-repo:23824728
