:lock: Vaultix

Hex.pmHex.pm

A very simple elixir client that authenticates, reads, writes, and deletes secrets from HashiCorp's Vault. As listed on Vault Libraries. Forked from https://github.com/findmypast/vaultex.

Installation

The package can be installed as:

  1. Add vaultix to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do
  [{:vaultix, "~> 0.8"}]
end
  1. Ensure vaultix is started before your application:
def application do
  [applications: [:vaultix]]
end

Configuration

You can configure your vault endpoint with a single environment variable:

Or a single application variable:

An example value for VAULT_ADDR is http://127.0.0.1:8200.

Alternatively the vault endpoint can be specified with environment variables:

Or application variables:

These default to localhost, 8200, http respectively.

You can skip SSL certificate verification with :vaultix, vault_ssl_verify: true option or VAULT_SSL_VERIFY=true environment variable.

Usage

To read a secret you must provide the path to the secret and the authentication backend and credentials you will use to login. See the Vaultix.Client.auth/2 docs for supported auth backends.

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:userpass, {username, password})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:ldap, {username, password})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:github, {github_token})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:approle, {role_id, secret_id})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:token, {token})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:kubernetes, %{jwt: "jwt", role: "role"})

iex> Vaultix.Client.auth(:radius, %{username: "user", password: "password"})

...
iex> Vaultix.Client.read "secret/bar", :github, {github_token} #returns {:ok, %{"value" => bar"}}

...
iex> Vaultix.Client.write "secret/foo", %{"value" => "bar"}, :app_id, {app_id, user_id}
