RedactedSecret

Secret wrapper type for more carefully handling secret values (e.g. passwords, cryptographic keys, access tokens or other credentials).

Usage

use redactedsecret::{Secret, SecretString, SecretVec, SecretBox};

Examples

1. Create a Secret on any type (Generic Type)

use redactedsecret::{Secret, ExposeSecret};

let dummy_PIN = Secret::new(1234);

assert_eq!(dummy_PIN.expose_secret().to_owned(), 1234);

2. Create a string from SecretString

use redactedsecret::{SecretString, ExposeSecret};

let dummy_PIN = SecretString::new("I am a string PIN".to_owned());

assert_eq!(dummy_PIN.expose_secret().to_owned(), "I am a string PIN".to_owned());

3. Create a Boxed type from a SecretBox type

use redactedsecret::{Secret, ExposeSecret};

let dummy_PIN = Box::new(Secret::new(1234));

assert_eq!(dummy_PIN.expose_secret().to_owned(), 1234);

4. Create a vector from a SecretVec

use redactedsecret::{SecretVec, ExposeSecret};

let dummy_PIN = SecretVec::new(vec![1234]);

assert_eq!(dummy_PIN.expose_secret().to_owned(), vec![1234]);
