getsecret v1.0.2

getsecret

A simple way to get credentials stored in yaml files and environment variables

Install

npm install getsecret

Storing secrets

You can store secrets in 3 locations (in decreasing order of priority)

• An environment variable. These are commonly used in Heroku. ex: process.env.some_keyname

• A file named .getsecret.yaml in your current directory

• A file named .getsecret.yaml in your home directory. The format should map key names to secrets, ie:

  some_keyname: some_secret_value another_keyname: another_secret_value

Accessing secrets from code

Simply pass the key name to getsecret and its value will be returned. ex:

var getsecret = require('getsecret')
var secret_value = getsecret('some_keyname')
