$> fernet generate
ixfFROV_uIYZsM4cB6mCs4Bi7mnlsDzOqk-WCsLsYiA=

This command generates a new fernet key (using Fernet.generate_key()) and prints it out. Use this command to generate news keys to be securely stored.

init

$> export FERNET_KEY='ixfFROV_uIYZsM4cB6mCs4Bi7mnlsDzOqk-WCsLsYiA='
$> export FERNET__VARIABLE_NAME='Z0FBQUFBQmlLTF9QZ3FuZjZxVllmTmJtcDhpU3p2MHAxdVpWTXlVa21jLU5PbEdoeFE0d01TR1R3QnZORGMyVlFXX1ZISG0tUFl3RnVXVmFWNlhVRG9ZWTFjWEQzRm9wQmJCTXhFdTZkZ0F4S2ZmZjg0RGhTdE09'
$> eval $(fernet init)
$> echo $VARIABLE_NAME
some-secret-value

This command will attempt to decrypt any env variables prefixed with FERNET__ using the key provided in the FERNET_KEY env variable. It then ouptuts a shell eval-able definition of decrypted variables, typically to be used as eval $(fernet init).

$> export FERNET_KEY='ixfFROV_uIYZsM4cB6mCs4Bi7mnlsDzOqk-WCsLsYiA='
$> fernet encrypt 'some-secret-value'
