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.

Rust

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

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

// This bootstrap secret will reside in memory.
bootstrap.set_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.
let json = chilkat::JsonObject::new();
let _ = json.update_string("appName", "oracle_bs");
let _ = json.update_string("service", "Example");
let _ = json.update_string("username", "Joe");

// The bootstrap secret for Oracle Cloud Secrets is the PEM of your private key.
let sb_pem = chilkat::StringBuilder::new();
if sb_pem.load_file("qa_data/pem/oracle_cloud_privkey.pem", "utf-8").is_err() {
    println!("Failed to load the private key PEM file.");
    return;
}

// 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.
if bootstrap.update_secret_sb(&json, &sb_pem).is_err() {
    println!("{}", bootstrap.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("The Oracle Cloud bootstrap secret has been stored in memory.");
