# aws-secrets-dotenv

aws-secrets-dotenv is a tool that manages your envrionment variables for an application stored in the [AWS Secrets Manager](https://aws.amazon.com/secrets-manager/).

The tool can store envrionment variables from the machine it's run on to the AWS Secrets Manager and retrieve secrets from AWS to a `.env` file which is a standard for a lot of technologies.

This tool is typically used in the build pipeline of an application.

> **_NOTE:_**  Always be careful not to leak the .env file. This is a common security concern.

## Installation

```sh

npm install aws-secrets-dotenv --save-dev

```

```js

// .secretsrc

{

  "Name": "MyProject",

  "Description": "My super cool project!",

  "LIST_OF_SECRETS": [

    "DATABASE_URI"

  ]

}

````

## Usage

The default stage is `dev`.

```js

// package.json

  "scripts": {

    "upload-secrets": "aws-secrets-dotenv createOrUpdateSecret prod", // Store the environment variables of this machine to AWS Secrets Manager for prod environment.

    "retrieve-secrets": "aws-secrets-dotenv createLocalEnvironment prod" // Retrieve the environment variables from AWS Secrets Manager prod envrionment to a .env file in the root folder.

  }
