[jira] [Created] (BROOKLYN-275) Private Key Data description in the Add BYON Location Wizard is misleading

John McCabe created BROOKLYN-275:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Private Key Data description in the Add BYON Location Wizard is misleading
                 Key: BROOKLYN-275
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-275
             Project: Brooklyn
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: John McCabe


Attempting to add a BYON location via the Catalog wizard you are prompted for the following:
{code}
Private Key Data
The contents of the private key file to use to connect to the machines (if using key access, where the corresponding public key is in the .authorized_keys file on the servers)
{code}
This implies that you must paste the *contents* of your private key file however this field is currently maping to {{privateKeyFile}} which takes a path to the key file on the Brooklyn node FS.
This needs to be updated to push the contents of the textarea to {{privateKeyData}}.

*NOTE*: Also observed that if you paste a multi-line key it wasn't being indented correctly, not sure if that was a result of populating the {{privateKeyFile}} tag (suspect not tho...), we should handle multi-line key data as if the user copy-pastes from their private key file thats what they'll be pasting, also needs to handle the begin/end comments in a standard private key file.
