dworshak 0.1.8

Manage local, encrypted credentials. The **dworshak* CLI leverages openssl, sqlite3, and cryptography.

Project Dworshak 🌊

Dworshak is the security bones behind API orchestration of infrastructure data between legacy SOAP services (EDS) and modern REST APIs (RJN).

🏗 The Ultimate Vision

To become a stable credential management tool for scripting the flow of Emerson Ovation data and related APIs, supporting multiple projects in and beyond at the Maxson Wastewater Treatment Plant.

• The Wider Goal: A system where data is fetched, validated, and mirrored locally so that decision-support tools (Dashboards, Alarms) never have to "wait" on a slow external API.
• The Method: "Do one boring thing well." Use OpenSSL to manage a local ~/.dowrshak/ directory which includes a .keyfile, avault.dbencrypted credential file, and aconfig.json` file for controlling defaults.

⚖️ User Stories

Dworshak supports two complementary roles within the infrastructure data ecosystem:

1. Infrastructure Integrator (Primary User)

I need a secure, predictable tool that orchestrates the movement of data between upstream and downstream systems — pulling from legacy SOAP endpoints, transforming or validating as needed, and pushing clean, trusted data to the services that depend on it. Dworshak should behave like a controlled “data dam,” ensuring one‑directional flow, consistent execution across platforms, and strict protection of credentials.

2. Data Analyst (Secondary User)

I need a reliable, set-and-forget tool that synchronizes remote API data into a local, high-performance SQLite mirror, so that dashboards, reports, and decision-support tools never have to wait on slow or unreliable external services. Equipped with the Dworshak CLI and its companion toolset, I can build visualizations and reports without worrying about credential leaks, API timeouts, or platform-specific (Windows vs. Termux) bugs.

🚀 The MVP (Current State)

• Secure Vault: Fernet-encrypted SQLite storage for API credentials.
• Root of Trust: A local .key file architecture that works identically on Windows and Termux.
• CLI Entry: A typer-based interface for setup and credential management.

⚠️ Risks & Guardrails

To prevent "going off the rails" or drowning in scope creep: The Anti-Daemon Bias: Stay script-based. Using task-scheduler or cron is more robust than maintaining a long-running daemon process that can leak memory or crash silently.
