Luzifer / vault-user-token

This project is intended to constantly renew a Vault token derived from a role id.

That way the machine only contains a temporary token expiring after a short while if the program is no longer running. So if a machine is lost (physically) the corresponding secret can be revoked and the machine will no longer be able to access the vault instance.

As secret multiple strings are possible:

• Full Hostname (--full-hostname=true)
• Short Hostname (--full-hostname=false)
• Secret from disk (~/.config/vault-user-token.secret, file must have 0o400 or 0o600 permission, content is stripped for whitespaces)
