Signing keys to be configured on the filesystem must be provided via parameter web3signer_keys as a map. Key of the map will be used as the name of the key file. Each key creates a key file. Currently support unencrypted keys and support other type of keys will be added soon.

web3signer_keys:
  key1:
    type: 'file-raw'
    keyType: 'BLS'
    privateKey: '0x6eeb32dd0fe010051825e3ef402b1a7c66fd6daa9c61eb351c5d760684de8e6a'
