- Create, update, and list policies
- Attach policies to userpass users
Monitoring
- Getting status
Username/Password Authentication
- Create user and get details
- Update passwords
- List users
- Login (validate password and get Vault token)
- Delete
Limitations
See the warning on REST api:
Backwards compatibility: At the current version, Vault does not yet promise backwards compatibility even with the v1
prefix. We'll remove this warning when this policy changes. At this point in time the core API
(that is, sys/ routes) change very infrequently, but various secrets engines/auth methods/etc. sometimes have minor
changes to accommodate new features as they're developed.
The above warning means this library could potentially break with newer versions of Vault.
The library is experimental, and tested with Vault 1.11 through 1.13.
GPG Key Generation
To demo using PGP (GPG) to encrypt the unseal keys and root tokens generated by Vault, you can create several fake users, each with their own key pair.
$ gpg --quick-generate-key operator1@testuri.org
$ gpg --quick-generate-key operator2@testuri.org
$ gpg --quick-generate-key operator3@testuri.org
$ gpg --quick-generate-key root-user@testuri.org
Listing key pairs having private keys:
$ gpg -K
Export the public keys of each key pair:
$ gpg --output operator1.pgp --export operator1@testuri.org
$ gpg --output operator2.pgp --export operator2@testuri.org
$ gpg --output operator3.pgp --export operator3@testuri.org
$ gpg --output root-user.pgp --export root-user@testuri.org
Note: DO NOT use the "--armor" flag - Vault requires binary public keys.
Platforms
Linux
All library features are available on Linux.
Mac
All library features are available on Macs, but because of limitations of Docker networking on Macs, all automated tests that require a live Vault server are disabled.
Windows
All library features are available on Windows, but because Hashicorp does not offer a Windows build of the Vault server, all automated tests that require a live Vault server are disabled.
