backend package allows for pluggable back-ends for secrets storage. To implement a new storage back-end you have to supply an object which:

• implements backend.Backend interface
• implements backend.NewFunc function

Index

• Constants
• func ValidateLockTTL(ttl time.Duration) error
• type Backend
• type Config
• type JSONCodec
  • func (c *JSONCodec) CreateJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}, ttl time.Duration) error
  • func (c *JSONCodec) GetJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}) error
  • func (c *JSONCodec) UpsertJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}, ttl time.Duration) error
• type NameFunc
• type NewFunc
• type Params
  • func (p Params) GetString(key string) string

Constants

const (
	Forever         time.Duration = 0
	MaxLockDuration time.Duration = time.Minute
)

Forever means that object TTL will not expire unless deleted

Functions

func ValidateLockTTL

func ValidateLockTTL(ttl time.Duration) error

ValidateLockTTL helper allows all backends to validate lock TTL parameter

Types

type Backend

type Backend interface {
	// GetKeys returns a list of keys for a given path
	GetKeys(bucket []string) ([]string, error)
	// CreateVal creates value with a given TTL and key in the bucket
	// if the value already exists, it must return trace.AlreadyExistsError
	CreateVal(bucket []string, key string, val []byte, ttl time.Duration) error
	// UpsertVal updates or inserts value with a given TTL into a bucket
	// ForeverTTL for no TTL
	UpsertVal(bucket []string, key string, val []byte, ttl time.Duration) error
	// GetVal return a value for a given key in the bucket
	GetVal(path []string, key string) ([]byte, error)
	// DeleteKey deletes a key in a bucket
	DeleteKey(bucket []string, key string) error
	// DeleteBucket deletes the bucket by a given path
	DeleteBucket(path []string, bkt string) error
	// AcquireLock grabs a lock that will be released automatically in TTL
	AcquireLock(token string, ttl time.Duration) error
	// ReleaseLock forces lock release before TTL
	ReleaseLock(token string) error
	// Close releases the resources taken up by this backend
	Close() error
}

Backend implements abstraction over local or remote storage backend

Storage is modeled after BoltDB:

• bucket is a slice []string{"a", "b"}
• buckets contain key value pairs

type Config

type Config struct {
	// Type can be "bolt" or "etcd" or "dynamodb"
	Type string `yaml:"type,omitempty"`

	// Params is a generic key/value property bag which allows arbitrary
	// falues to be passed to backend
	Params Params `yaml:",inline"`
}

Config is used for 'storage' config section. It's a combination of values for various backends: 'boltdb', 'etcd', 'filesystem' and 'dynamodb'

type JSONCodec

type JSONCodec struct {
	Backend
}

func (*JSONCodec) CreateJSONVal

func (c *JSONCodec) CreateJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}, ttl time.Duration) error

func (*JSONCodec) GetJSONVal

func (c *JSONCodec) GetJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}) error

func (*JSONCodec) UpsertJSONVal

func (c *JSONCodec) UpsertJSONVal(path []string, key string, val interface{}, ttl time.Duration) error

type NameFunc

type NameFunc func() string

NameFunc type defines a function type which every backend must implement to return its name

type NewFunc

type NewFunc func(Params) (Backend, error)

NewFunc type defines a function type which every backend must implement to instantiate itself

type Params

type Params map[string]interface{}

backend.Params type defines a flexible unified back-end configuration API. It is just a map of key/value pairs which gets populated by `storage` section in Teleport YAML config.

func (Params) GetString

func (p Params) GetString(key string) string

GetString returns a string value stored in Params map, or an empty string if nothing is found
