Variables

var SecretDeleteQueue = make(
	chan entity.SecretStored,
	env.SecretDeleteBufferSizeForSafe(),
)

SecretDeleteQueue items are persisted to files. They are buffered, so that they can be written in the order they are queued and there are no concurrent writes to the same file at a time.

Functions

func ProcessSecretBackingStoreQueue

func ProcessSecretBackingStoreQueue()

ProcessSecretBackingStoreQueue continuously processes a queue of secrets scheduled for deletion, removing each secret from disk. This function plays a crucial role in the secure management of secrets by ensuring that outdated or unnecessary secrets are not left stored, potentially posing a security risk.

It operates in an endless loop, monitoring a global queue of secrets to be deleted.
