Doppler Secrets - Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local Manager

See more Secrets Examples

Accessing 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 Doppler Secrets.

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

Rust

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

let bootstrap = chilkat::Secrets::new();

// We're going to store the bootstrap secret in the local manager.
// On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
// On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
bootstrap.set_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.
let json = chilkat::JsonObject::new();
let _ = json.update_string("appName", "doppler_bs");
let _ = json.update_string("service", "Example");
let _ = json.update_string("username", "Joe");

// The bootstrap secret for Doppler Secrets will contain
// your Doppler authentication token.
// (Replace with your actual Doppler token.)
if bootstrap.update_secret_str(&json, "dp.pt.uhcGAChAtpBkImhjT2xjwhdyG7rMJp75eEl4WAAAyUfc").is_err() {
    println!("{}", bootstrap.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("The Doppler bootstrap secret has been stored in the local manager.");
