<?php

// 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
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Secrets')
$bootstrap = new COM("Chilkat.Secrets");

// 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->Location = 'local_manager';

// Specify the bootstrap secret to be used.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$bsId = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$bsId->UpdateString('appName','ibm_bs');
$bsId->UpdateString('service','Example');
$bsId->UpdateString('username','Joe');

// ----------------------------------------------------
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Secrets')
$secrets = new COM("Chilkat.Secrets");

// Setup for the IBM Cloud Secrets
$secrets->Location = 'ibm_cloud';
$success = $secrets->SetBootstrapSecret($bsId,$bootstrap);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $secrets->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// 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.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$json = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$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';
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.BinData')
$bd = new COM("Chilkat.BinData");
$success = $http->DownloadBd($url,$bd);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Create or update the binary secret.
$success = $secrets->UpdateSecretBd($json,$bd);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $secrets->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

print 'Success.' . "\n";

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