Oracle Cloud Secrets - Setup Bootstrap Secret in Memory

See more Secrets Examples

Accessing a cloud-based secrets manager requires authentication credentials, which cannot be stored within the secrets manager itself.

This example shows how to set up an in-memory bootstrap secret with authentication credentials which will be used in other examples to access Oracle Cloud Secrets.

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

Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

$bootstrap = chilkat::CkSecrets->new();

# This bootstrap secret will reside in memory.
$bootstrap->put_Location("memory");

# 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::CkJsonObject->new();
$json->UpdateString("appName","oracle_bs");
$json->UpdateString("service","Example");
$json->UpdateString("username","Joe");

# The bootstrap secret for Oracle Cloud Secrets is the PEM of your private key.
$sbPem = chilkat::CkStringBuilder->new();
$success = $sbPem->LoadFile("qa_data/pem/oracle_cloud_privkey.pem","utf-8");
if ($success == 0) {
    print "Failed to load the private key PEM file." . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# The bootstrap secret for the Oracle Cloud Secrets will contain
# the private key PEM.
# The secret is stored encrypted in memory, and is available to be used
# regardless of the lifetime of the "bootstrap" object.
$success = $bootstrap->UpdateSecretSb($json,$sbPem);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $bootstrap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print "The Oracle Cloud bootstrap secret has been stored in memory." . "\r\n";
