## VERSION 1.0.620

## AUTHOR

Ed Silva

## HOMEBREW INSTALL

``` shell
brew tap esilva-everbridge/homebrew-generate-secure-pillar
brew install generate-secure-pillar
```

## CONFIG FILE USAGE

A config file can be used to set default values, and an example file is created if there isn't one already, with commented out values. The file location defaults to `~/.config/generate-secure-pillar/config.yaml`.
Profiles can be specified and selected via a command line option.

``` shell
profiles:
- name: dev
default: true
default_key: Dev Salt Master
gnupg_home: ~/.gnupg
default_pub_ring: ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
default_sec_ring: ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg
- name: prod
default: false
default_key: Prod Salt Master
gnupg_home: ~/.gnupg
default_pub_ring: ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
default_sec_ring: ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg
...
```

## ABOUT PGP KEYS

The PGP keys you import for use with this tool need to be 'trusted' keys.
An easy way to do this is, after importing a key, run the following commands:

``` shell
expect -c "spawn gpg --edit-key '' trust quit; send \"5\ry\r\"; expect eof"
```

(found here:

## COMMANDS

```text
create, c create a new sls file
update, u update the value of the given key in the given file
encrypt, e perform encryption operations
decrypt, d perform decryption operations
rotate, r decrypt existing files and re-encrypt with a new key
keys, k show PGP key IDs used
help, h Shows a list of commands or help for one command
```

## GLOBAL OPTIONS

- --profile value default profile to use in the config file
- --pubring value PGP public keyring (default: "~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg" or "$GNUPGHOME/pubring.gpg")
- --secring value PGP private keyring (default: "~/.gnupg/secring.gpg" or "$GNUPGHOME/secring.gpg")
- --pgp_key value, -k value PGP key name, email, or ID to use for encryption
- --debug adds line number info to log output
- --element value, -e value Name of the top level element under which encrypted key/value pairs are kept
- --help, -h show help

## EXAMPLES

### specify a config profile and create a new file

```$ generate-secure-pillar --profile dev create --name secret_name1 --value secret_value1 --name secret_name2 --value secret_value2 --outfile new.sls```

### create a new sls file

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" create --name secret_name1 --value secret_value1 --name secret_name2 --value secret_value2 --outfile new.sls```

### add to the new file

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" update --name new_secret_name --value new_secret_value --file new.sls```

### update an existing value

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" update --name secret_name --value secret_value3 --file new.sls```

### encrypt all plain text values in a file

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" encrypt all --file us1.sls --outfile us1.sls```

### or use --update flag

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" encrypt all --file us1.sls --update```

### encrypt all plain text values in a file under the element 'secret_stuff'

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" --element secret_stuff encrypt all --file us1.sls --outfile us1.sls```

### recurse through all sls files, encrypting all values

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "Salt Master" encrypt recurse -d /path/to/pillar/secure/stuff```

### recurse through all sls files, decrypting all values (requires imported private key)

```$ generate-secure-pillar decrypt recurse -d /path/to/pillar/secure/stuff```

### decrypt a specific existing value (requires imported private key)

```$ generate-secure-pillar decrypt path --path "some:yaml:path" --file new.sls```

### decrypt all files and re-encrypt with given key (requires imported private key)

```$ generate-secure-pillar -k "New Salt Master Key" rotate -d /path/to/pillar/secure/stuff```

### show all PGP key IDs used in a file

```$ generate-secure-pillar keys all --file us1.sls```

### show all keys used in all files in a given directory

```$ generate-secure-pillar keys recurse -d /path/to/pillar/secure/stuff```

### show the PGP key ID used for an element at a path in a file

```$ generate-secure-pillar keys path --path "some:yaml:path" --file new.sls```
