I am not able to create secret using keywhiz api.

[Shyam]

I used below code to create secret,

public static void testCreateNewSecrete() throws IOException{
        KeywhizClient keywhizClient = keywhizClient();
        keywhizClient.login("keywhizAdmin", "adminPass".toCharArray());
        String str = FileUtils.readFileToString(new File("path/to/somefile/location/DefaultBundle.jceks"),"UTF-8");
        ImmutableMap<String,String> myMap = ImmutableMap.<String, String>builder().put("client", "client").put("group", "Security").build();
        SecretDetailResponse createSecret = keywhizClient.createSecret("key_store","key store", str, true, myMap);
        System.out.println(createSecret);
    }

Then i getting below exception,

Exception in thread "main" keywhiz.client.KeywhizClient$ValidationException: Malformed request semantics from client (422)
at keywhiz.client.KeywhizClient.throwOnCommonError(KeywhizClient.java:263)

How to how to convert somesecretFile.jceks to string and make above code working ?

If i do not use file content then it is working.

You're getting an error for malformed request because the content field must be base64. It's annotated on the class.

I have an unrelated PR out (#116), that changes KeywhizClient to take a byte[] and does the base64'ing there.
