Secrex

Simple and secure secrets manager in Elixir projects

Installation

The package can be installed by adding secrex to our list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:secrex, "~> 0.3", runtime: false}
  ]
end

For usage information see the documentation.

Mix tasks

There are two Mix tasks available:

• mix secrex.encrypt
• mix secrex.decrypt

Secrex requires some configuration in order to work. For example, in config/config.exs:

config :secrex,
  key_file: ".secret-key",
  files: ["config/env/prod.secret.exs"]

• :key_file - a path to the key file that will be used for encryption and decryption if this is not configured, you will be prompted to enter it later
• :files - list of files that needs to be encrypted and decrypted
• :cipher - the cipher module to handle secret encryption/decryption. Must be an implementation of Secrex.Cipher. Defaults to Secrex.AES.
