It's also useful for atomic deploys: no need to +coordinate key changes to get everything working as the keys are shipped +with the code. + +=== Setup + +Run `bin/rails secrets:setup` to opt in and generate the `config/secrets.yml.key` +and `config/secrets.yml.enc` files. + +The latter contains all the keys to be encrypted while the former holds the +encryption key. + +Don't lose the key! Put it in a password manager your team can access. +Should you lose it no one, including you, will be able to access any encrypted +secrets. +Don't commit the key! Add `config/secrets.yml.key` to your source control's +ignore file. If you use Git, Rails handles this for you. + +Rails also looks for the key in `ENV["RAILS_MASTER_KEY"]` if that's easier to +manage. + +You could prepend that to your server's start command like this: + + RAILS_MASTER_KEY="im-the-master-now-hahaha" server.start + + +The `config/secrets.yml.enc` has much the same format as `config/secrets.yml`: + + production: + secret_key_base: so-secret-very-hidden-wow + payment_processing_gateway_key: much-safe-very-gaedwey-wow + +But that's where the similarities between `secrets.yml` and `secrets.yml.enc` +end, e.g. no keys from `secrets.yml` will be moved to `secrets.yml.enc` and +be encrypted. + +A `shared:` top level key is also supported such that any keys there is merged +into the other environments. + +Additionally, Rails won't read encrypted secrets out of the box even if you have +the key. Add this: + + config.read_encrypted_secrets = true + +to the environment you'd like to read encrypted secrets. `bin/rails secrets:setup` +inserts this into the production environment by default. + +=== Editing Secrets + +After `bin/rails secrets:setup`, run `bin/rails secrets:edit`. + +That command opens a temporary file in `$EDITOR` with the decrypted contents of +`config/secrets.yml.enc` to edit the encrypted secrets. + +When the temporary file is next saved the contents are encrypted and written to +`config/secrets.yml.enc` while the file itself is destroyed to prevent secrets +from leaking. diff --git a/railties/lib/rails/commands/secrets/secrets_command.rb b/railties/lib/rails/commands/secrets/secrets_command.rb new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..a36ccf314c --- /dev/null +++ b/railties/lib/rails/commands/secrets/secrets_command.rb @@ -0,0 +1,65 @@ +# frozen_string_literal: true + +require "active_support" +require "rails/secrets" + +module Rails + module Command + class SecretsCommand < Rails::Command::Base # :nodoc: + no_commands do + def help + say "Usage:\n #{self.class.banner}" + say "" + say self.class.desc + end + end + + def setup + deprecate_in_favor_of_credentials_and_exit + end + + def edit + if ENV["EDITOR"].to_s.empty? + say "No $EDITOR to open decrypted secrets in.
