Accessing external Secrets in Gitlab CI

• gin-vals

  1 - -

There are times when you want to access your existing credentials from a secure location, like Vault by HashiCorp, AWS or some other big Cloud provider but your current CI Image does not have the necessary SDK installed or means to retrieve them. Maintaining them a second time as Gitlab Variables or accessing them in a previous job should not be done and is considered insecure for many reasons. That is why I created Gin Vals. Simply run Gin Vals as an Service and make a Web Request to the service.
