aws-secrets-to-env v0.0.2

This node.js script writes .env files or export commands to stdout based on values held in AWS Parameter Store and/or AWS Secrets Manager. Node applications can then be run using environment variables set by it, perhaps using package "dotenv" to retrieve from the .env file.

SAMPLE USAGE:

node aws-secrets-to-env.js \
--ssmpath=/myapp/prodconfig \
--secretid=/myapp/prodconfig \
--region=eu-central-1 \
>.env && node myapp.js

eval $(node aws-secrets-to-env.js \
--ssmpath=/myapp/prodconfig \
--secretid=/myapp/prodconfig \
--region=eu-central-1 \
--useexport \
) && node myapp.js

• Specify ssmpath and/or secretid to retrieve from AWS Parameter Store and/or AWS Secrets Manager respectively.
• You can specify --accessKeyId=awsAccessKeyId and --secretAccessKey=awsSecretAccessKey; otherwise default AWS auth is used.
• For the Parameter Store, parameters are returned by path (e.g. parameters with names starting with an arbitrary path such as "/myapp/prodconfig")

SCRIPT OPTIONS

• --ssmpath : AWS Param Store Path to retrieve
• --secretid : AWS Secrets Manager secret ID to retrieve. (This should return JSON key/value pairs)
• --debug : write debugging info to stderr
• --help : display this message
• --useexport : include an "export" command at the start of each line

AWS OPTIONS

All other options will be passed through to the AWS request. Useful options include:

• --region : AWS region. Defaults to "eu-central-1"
• --endpoint : specify an endpoint url (e.g. http://localstack:4566)
• --accessKeyId
• --secretAccessKey
