That is easy. With --use-standard-socket the socket used is
~/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent
unless GNUPGHOME is set in which case it is
${GNUPGHOME}/S.gpg-agent
The environment variable you want is thus
GPG_AGENT_INFO="${GNUPGHOME:-${HOME}/.gnupg}/S.gpg-agent:-1:1"
We do not actually need the PID, thus we set it to -1. The trraling 1
is the protocol version (not checked, iirc).
If you don't use --use-standard-socket you can try to write a scripts
based on
netstat -lx | awk '/\/S.gpg-agent$/ { print $8 }'
but you need to figure out whether this is the socket for the desired
user. Maybe -lxp would be helpful.
Salam-Shalom,
