Secret-Go

Go library for deserializing secrets from various sources (plain text, environment variables, or files) with support for multiple encodings.

Features

• Plain text secrets: Direct string values
• Environment variable secrets: Read from environment with optional encoding
• File-based secrets: Read from files with support for:
  • Full file content
  • INI format with key extraction
  • JSON format with path-based key extraction (e.g., key1.[0].nested)
• Base64 encoding support: Automatically decode base64-encoded secrets
• Automatic JSON deserialization: Works seamlessly with encoding/json

Installation

go get github.com/mia-platform/secret-go

Quick Start

Here is a simple example of how to use secret-go with a plain text secret:

package main

import (
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"

    "github.com/mia-platform/secret-go/secret"
)

type Config struct {
    APIKey secret.Secret `json:"api_key"`
}

func main() {
    jsonData := `{"api_key": "my-secret-value"}`
    var config Config
    if err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(jsonData), &config); err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    fmt.Println(config.APIKey.Read()) // "my-secret-value"
}
