Doppler Secrets - Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local Manager

See more Secrets Examples

Accessing a cloud-based secrets manager requires authentication credentials, which cannot be stored in the manager itself. Instead, they must be securely stored locally.

One solution is to store the authentication credentials as a secret in the Windows Credentials Manager or Apple Keychain. These credentials serve as the "bootstrap secret" for authenticating with the cloud-based secrets manager.

This example demonstrates how to setup a bootstrap secret for the Doppler Secrets.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.1.0 or later.

Go

    success := false

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    bootstrap := chilkat.NewSecrets()

    // We're going to store the bootstrap secret in the local manager.
    // On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
    // On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
    bootstrap.SetLocation("local_manager")

    // Specify the name of the bootstrap secret.
    // service and username are required.
    // appName and domain are optional.
    // Note: The values are arbitrary and can be anything you want.
    json := chilkat.NewJsonObject()
    json.UpdateString("appName","doppler_bs")
    json.UpdateString("service","Example")
    json.UpdateString("username","Joe")

    // The bootstrap secret for Doppler Secrets will contain
    // your Doppler authentication token.
    // (Replace with your actual Doppler token.)
    success = bootstrap.UpdateSecretStr(json,"dp.pt.uhcGAChAtpBkImhjT2xjwhdyG7rMJp75eEl4WAAAyUfc")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(bootstrap.LastErrorText())
        bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
        json.DisposeJsonObject()
        return
    }

    fmt.Println("The Doppler bootstrap secret has been stored in the local manager.")

    bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
    json.DisposeJsonObject()
