vc is a command-line interface to HashiCorp's Vault inspired by pass.

• Makes secrets from generic backends easy accessible
• Support for comments through # line prefix
• Features auto completion for bash and zsh

1. Download the latest release.
2. Unzip and move vc into a directory of choice.

To build vault-client you need a Go compiler and Git.

$ apt-get install git go
$ git clone https://github.com/adfinis-sygroup/vault-client.git
$ cd vault-client
$ make build

make build will install Go dependencies and build vault-client. After you should have a binary vc in your working directory.

The configuration happens through a simple yaml file.

$ echo "host: HOST (default: 127.0.0.1)
port: PORT (default: 8200)
token: PASSWORD
auth_backend: <ldap|token>
auth_method: <ldap|token>
tls: <true|false>
verify_tls: <true|false>" >  ~/.vaultrc

$ chmod 600 ~/.vaultrc

1. To hack on vault-client you need docker and docker-compose. This allows you to easily spin up a container running the vault server:

$ docker-compose up

1. You also need a minimal .vaultrc that points to vault running inside the docker container:

$ echo "host: 127.0.0.1
port: 8200
tls: false
token: password

$ chmod 600 ~/.vaultrc

1. Finally you want to export the path of your development .vaultrc as an environment variable:

$ cd vault-client
$ export VAULT_CLIENT_CONFIG="${PWD}/.vaultrc"

1. You should now be able to run the test suite:

$ make test
