LowkeyVault

GitHub license Go package Lowkey secure

Lowkey Vault - Example Go

This is an example for Lowkey Vault. It demonstrates a basic scenario where a key is used for encrypt/decrypt operations and database connection specific credentials as well as getting a PKCS12 store with a certificate and matching private key inside.

Points of interest

Note

In order to better understand what is needed in general to make similar examples work, please find a generic overview here.

Usage

  1. Start Lowkey Vault and Assumed Identity
    1. Either by following the steps here and here.
    2. Or running docker-compose up -d
  2. If you are not using the default 169.254.169.254:80 address for Assumed Identity (because for example you are running it in the cloud)
    1. Set IDENTITY_ENDPOINT environment variable to point to the /metadata/identity/oauth2/token path of Assumed Identity e.g., http://localhost:8080/metadata/identity/oauth2/token
    2. Set IDENTITY_HEADER environment variable to anything (just needs to exist) e.g., header
  3. Run the tests

Tip

Since v2.4.2, Lowkey Vault is providing the same token endpoint on the 8080 port by default. Therefore, you don't need to start another container.
