# TSYS Secrets Manager
A comprehensive bash script solution for managing secrets at TSYS using the Bitwarden CLI. This tool provides automated installation, configuration, and secure secret retrieval from your Bitwarden vault.
## Features
- **Automated Installation**: Automatically detects and installs Bitwarden CLI via multiple methods (snap, npm, direct download)
- **Configuration Management**: Uses secure configuration files for server and authentication details
- **Multiple Commands**: Support for installation, secret retrieval, listing, and testing
- **Robust Error Handling**: Comprehensive error codes and detailed logging
- **Security-First**: Proper session management, cleanup, and credential handling
- **Cross-Platform**: Designed for Linux environments with multiple installation fallbacks
## Quick Start
1. **Clone and Setup**:
```bash
git clone <repository-url>
cd KNELSecretsManager
chmod +x secrets-manager.sh
```
2. **Create Configuration**:
```bash
cp bitwarden-config.conf.sample bitwarden-config.conf
# Edit bitwarden-config.conf with your actual Bitwarden credentials
```
3. **Install Bitwarden CLI** (if not already installed):
```bash
./secrets-manager.sh install
```
4. **Test Your Setup**:
```bash
./secrets-manager.sh test
```
5. **Retrieve Secrets**:
```bash
./secrets-manager.sh get APIKEY-pushover
```
## Configuration
Create a `bitwarden-config.conf` file based on the provided sample:
```bash
# Bitwarden server URL
BW_SERVER_URL="https://pwvault.turnsys.com"
# API credentials (from Bitwarden account settings)
BW_CLIENTID="your_client_id_here"
BW_CLIENTSECRET="your_client_secret_here"
# Master password
BW_PASSWORD="your_master_password_here"
```
**Security Note**: The actual configuration file is automatically ignored by git to prevent credential exposure.
## Usage
### Command Reference
```bash
./secrets-manager.sh [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]
```
#### Commands
- **`install`** - Install Bitwarden CLI
- **`get <secret_name>`** - Retrieve a specific secret
- **`list`** - List all available secrets in your vault
- **`test`** - Test configuration and connectivity
#### Options
- **`-c, --config FILE`** - Use specific config file (default: `./bitwarden-config.conf`)
- **`-h, --help`** - Show help message
- **`-v, --version`** - Show version information
### Examples
```bash
# Install Bitwarden CLI
./secrets-manager.sh install
# Test your configuration
./secrets-manager.sh test
# Get a specific secret
./secrets-manager.sh get APIKEY-pushover
# List all available secrets
./secrets-manager.sh list
# Use a custom config file
./secrets-manager.sh --config /path/to/custom.conf get my-secret
```
### Using in Scripts
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Example: Load API key into environment variable
export PUSHOVER_API="$(./secrets-manager.sh get APIKEY-pushover)"
# Use the secret in your application
curl -X POST "https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json" \
-d "token=$PUSHOVER_API" \
-d "user=your_user_key" \
-d "message=Hello from TSYS!"
```
## Installation Methods
The script automatically tries multiple installation methods in order:
1. **Snap Package** (if snapd is available)
2. **NPM Global Package** (if npm is available)
3. **Direct Binary Download** (fallback method)
## Error Codes
| Code | Description |
|------|-------------|
| 10 | Configuration file not found |
| 20 | Bitwarden CLI not installed |
| 30 | Bitwarden CLI installation failed |
| 40 | Server configuration failed |
| 50 | Session/unlock failed |
| 60 | Secret not found |
| 70 | Login failed |
## Logging
All operations are logged to `/tmp/secrets-manager.sh.log` for debugging and audit purposes.
## Security Considerations
- Configuration files containing credentials are automatically gitignored
- Session tokens are properly cleaned up on script exit
- Master passwords are handled securely without shell history exposure
- All sensitive operations include proper error handling
## Legacy Scripts
This repository also contains previous implementations:
- **`poc.sh`** - Original proof of concept
- **`prod.sh`** - ChatGPT-assisted production attempt
The new `secrets-manager.sh` combines the best features of both while adding robust error handling, installation management, and improved security.
