Python client for gosecrets — encrypted credentials management

gosecrets

Python client for gosecrets — encrypted credentials management. Read secrets encrypted by the Go CLI directly from your Python projects.

CLI Tool via Homebrew:

brew tap bilustek/tap
brew install gosecrets

or via go install:

go install github.com/bilustek/gosecrets/cmd/gosecrets@latest

---

Installation

pip install gosecrets

---

Quick Start

First, create your encrypted credentials using the gosecrets CLI:

gosecrets init                  # for development environment
gosecrets init --env production # or production environment

gosecrets edit                  # edit development environment
gosecrets edit --env production # or edit production environment

Then read them in Python:

from gosecrets import load

secrets = load()
print(secrets.string("database.password"))
print(secrets.integer("database.port"))

---

Usage

Loading Credentials

from gosecrets import load

# default: reads secrets/development.enc
secrets = load()

# specify environment
secrets = load(env="production")

# specify root directory
secrets = load(root="/app", env="production")

Environment resolution order:

1. env parameter
2. GOSECRETS_ENV environment variable
3. "development" (default)

Master key resolution order:

1. GOSECRETS_MASTER_KEY environment variable
2. GOSECRETS_<ENV>_KEY environment variable (e.g. GOSECRETS_PRODUCTION_KEY)
3. Key file on disk (secrets/<env>.key)

Accessing Values

All accessors support dot notation for nested keys:

secrets.get("database.password")       # Any — raw value or None
secrets.string("api_key")              # str — "" if missing
secrets.string("api_key", "default")   # str — with fallback
secrets.integer("database.port")       # int — 0 if missing
secrets.integer("port", 5432)          # int — with fallback
secrets.floating("rate")               # float — 0.0 if missing
secrets.boolean("debug")               # bool — False if missing
secrets.mapping("database")            # dict | None
secrets.has("api_key")                 # bool
secrets.keys()                         # list[str] — all dot-notation paths
secrets.all()                          # dict — entire credentials

Compatibility

This package reads credentials encrypted by the gosecrets CLI (AES-256-GCM). It is fully compatible with credentials created by the Go library.
