Shell-secrets – GPG-encrypted environment variables

1. age

   1 230 18,913 5.2 Go

   A simple, modern and secure encryption tool (and Go library) with small explicit keys, no config options, and UNIX-style composability.

   

   The easier and more productive thing is to make an easy-to-use tool that does a specific workflow vs trying to be a swiss army knife.

   https://github.com/FiloSottile/age is this for encrypting files.

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signify_(OpenBSD) and https://jedisct1.github.io/minisign/ are this for signing files.

   Signal/Whatsapp/etc that use the Signal Protocal are this for messaging.

   It turns out solving one problem at a time and ending up with a bunch of purpose-built tools is way easier to get right than trying to jam an entire toolbox into one thing.

   unclutter your .profile

   

   Unless you're good at actually maintaining your gpg keychain and need other people to access this, I really wouldn't bother with gpg. There are way better and simpler options.

   Age has a simpler interface and SSH key support https://github.com/FiloSottile/age

   ejson2env has the environment variable integration and ejson has multiple backends https://github.com/Shopify/ejson2env

   direnv can support any cli secrets manager per project directory https://direnv.net/

   I've dealt with enough "why did this break" situations with gpg secrets files used by capable teams that I'd never recommend that to anyone.

5. ejson2env

   4 1 79 6.8 Go

   Decrypt EJSON secrets and export them as environment variables.
