(CkPython) AWS Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local ManagerSee more Secrets ExamplesAccessing 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 AWS Secrets Manager. Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.1.0 or later. For more information, see https://cknotes.com/chilkat-secrets-class-added-in-version-10-1-0/
import sys import chilkat # This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked. # See Global Unlock Sample for sample code. bootstrap = chilkat.CkSecrets() # On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager # On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain bootstrap.put_Location("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.CkJsonObject() json.UpdateString("appName","AWS") json.UpdateString("service","Example") json.UpdateString("username","Joe") # The bootstrap secret for the AWS Secrets Manager will contain # the AWS region, access key, and secret key, like this: jsonSecret = chilkat.CkJsonObject() # Modify if necessary to use your region.. jsonSecret.UpdateString("awsRegion","us-east-1") jsonSecret.UpdateString("awsAccessKey","YOUR_ACCESS_KEY") jsonSecret.UpdateString("awsSecretKey","YOUR_SECRET_KEY") # Create or update the bootstrap secret. success = bootstrap.UpdateSecretJson(json,jsonSecret) if (success == False): print(bootstrap.lastErrorText()) sys.exit() print("The AWS bootstrap secret has been stored.") |
