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.

Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# 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 == false)
    print "Failed to load the private key PEM file." + "\n";
    exit
end

# 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 == false)
    print bootstrap.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

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