# genkeys()
# gp_encrypt = gp %>%
#   select(-c(name, address1, address2, address3)) %>%
#   encrypt(postcode, telephone)

# For CRAN and testing:
library(dplyr)
temp_dir = tempdir()
genkeys(file.path(temp_dir, "id_rsa2")) # temp directory for testing only
gp_encrypt = gp %>%
  select(-c(name, address1, address2, address3)) %>%
  encrypt(postcode, telephone, public_key_path = file.path(temp_dir, "id_rsa2.pub"))
