Secret Stores

Secret Stores provide a common way to interact with different secret stores, cloud/edge/commercial or open-source.

Currently supported secret stores are:

• Kubernetes
• Hashicorp Vault
• Azure KeyVault
• AWS Secret manager
• GCP Cloud KMS
• GCP Secret Manager

Implementing a new Secret Store

A compliant secret store needs to implement the following interface:

type SecretStore interface {
	// Init authenticates with the actual secret store and performs other init operation
	Init(metadata Metadata) error
	// GetSecret retrieves a secret using a key and returns a map of decrypted string/string values
	GetSecret(req GetSecretRequest) (GetSecretResponse, error)
}

• type GetSecretRequest
• type GetSecretResponse
• type Metadata
• type SecretStore

Constants

const DefaultSecretRefKeyName = "_value"

DefaultSecretRefKeyName is the default key if secretKeyRef.key is not given

Types

type GetSecretRequest

type GetSecretRequest struct {
	Name     string            `json:"name"`
	Metadata map[string]string `json:"metadata"`
}

GetSecretRequest describes a get secret request from a secret store.

type GetSecretResponse

type GetSecretResponse struct {
	Data map[string]string `json:"data"`
}

GetSecretResponse describes the response object for a secret returned from a secret store

type Metadata

type Metadata struct {
	Properties map[string]string `json:"properties,omitempty"`
}

Metadata contains a secretstore specific set of metadata properties

type SecretStore

type SecretStore interface {
	// Init authenticates with the actual secret store and performs other init operation
	Init(metadata Metadata) error
	// GetSecret retrieves a secret using a key and returns a map of decrypted string/string values
	GetSecret(req GetSecretRequest) (GetSecretResponse, error)
}

SecretStore is the interface for a component that handles secrets management
