error loading config: no matching creation rules found when running sops decrypt

[poperigby]

I'm trying to pull a specific key out of a YAML file encrypted with sops, but I'm running into trouble.

When I run sops decrypt --extract '["key1"]["key2"], I get this:

error loading config: no matching creation rules found

This is my directory structure:

.
├── .sops.yaml
└── secrets
   └── secrets.yaml

This is my .sops.yaml:

keys:
  - &primary age1t6gkgpufq0vssxcqrh65v8vkgcln0tvkgdsgsjramdv7lcq7e5eqwy5p7h
creation_rules:
  - path_regex: secrets/secrets.yaml$
    key_groups:
      - age:
        - *primary

Are you using a version compiled from the main branch? If not, your version of sops likely does not have the decrypt subcommand, and you have to run sops --decrypt --extract '["key1"]["key2"] secrets/secrets.yaml instead.

There we go, thanks!
