IBM Cloud Secrets - Create or Update a Binary Secret

See more Secrets Examples

Demonstrates how to create or update a binary secret stored in the IBM Cloud 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.

    // The bootstrap secret will contain the following information:

    // IBM Cloud API Key

    // See following examples for setting up a bootstrap secret in memory, 
    // or in the local manager (Windows Credentials Manager or Apple Keychain)
    // Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local Manager
    // Setup Bootstrap Secret in Memory
    bootstrap := chilkat.NewSecrets()

    // Set the location of the bootstrap secret.
    // Can be "local_manager" or "memory", depending on how you setup the bootstrap secret.
    // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // If your operating system is NOT Windows or MacOS/iOS, then change "local_manager" to "memory"
    // You can also, if desired, use "memory" on Windows and MacOS/iOS if your bootstrap secret was previously setup in memory.
    // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    bootstrap.SetLocation("local_manager")

    // Specify the bootstrap secret to be used.
    bsId := chilkat.NewJsonObject()
    bsId.UpdateString("appName","ibm_bs")
    bsId.UpdateString("service","Example")
    bsId.UpdateString("username","Joe")

    // ----------------------------------------------------
    secrets := chilkat.NewSecrets()

    // Setup for the IBM Cloud Secrets
    secrets.SetLocation("ibm_cloud")
    success = secrets.SetBootstrapSecret(bsId,bootstrap)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(secrets.LastErrorText())
        bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
        bsId.DisposeJsonObject()
        secrets.DisposeSecrets()
        return
    }

    // Specify the name of the 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","Test2")
    json.UpdateString("service","Custom")
    json.UpdateString("domain","Ocean")
    json.UpdateString("username","Starfish")

    // You'll also need to specify your IBM Cloud instance ID and region for each API call.
    json.UpdateString("instance_id","a88a0c56-50a6-4461-9911-345b173e1171")
    json.UpdateString("region","us-south")

    // The purpose of this example is to show how arbitrary binary data
    // can be stored as a secret.

    // We'll use a small JPG image that is approximately 6KB in size.
    // You can test using this same JPG at this URL:
    url := "https://chilkatdownload.com/sample_data/starfish.jpg"
    http := chilkat.NewHttp()
    bd := chilkat.NewBinData()
    success = http.DownloadBd(url,bd)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
        bsId.DisposeJsonObject()
        secrets.DisposeSecrets()
        json.DisposeJsonObject()
        http.DisposeHttp()
        bd.DisposeBinData()
        return
    }

    // Create or update the binary secret.
    success = secrets.UpdateSecretBd(json,bd)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(secrets.LastErrorText())
        bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
        bsId.DisposeJsonObject()
        secrets.DisposeSecrets()
        json.DisposeJsonObject()
        http.DisposeHttp()
        bd.DisposeBinData()
        return
    }

    fmt.Println("Success.")

    // Here you can see the secret that was created in the IBM Cloud Secrets:

    // 

    bootstrap.DisposeSecrets()
    bsId.DisposeJsonObject()
    secrets.DisposeSecrets()
    json.DisposeJsonObject()
    http.DisposeHttp()
    bd.DisposeBinData()
