keyrings.envvars 1.1.0

keyring backend plugin to retrieve credentials from environment variables.

keyrings.envvars is a keyring backend plugin for the keyring utility that provides credentials via environment variables.

Requirements

• keyring >= 23.4.0

• Python >= 3.9

Installation

You can install keyrings.envvars via pip from PyPI:

$ pip install keyrings.envvars

Usage

keyrings.envvars uses the following format for environment variables:

KEYRING_SERVICE_NAME_<n>=<service>
KEYRING_SERVICE_USERNAME_<n>=<username>
KEYRING_SERVICE_PASSWORD_<n>=<password>

Example for usage with pip credentials:

KEYRING_SERVICE_NAME_0=private-pypi-index.example.com
KEYRING_SERVICE_USERNAME_0=testusername
KEYRING_SERVICE_PASSWORD_0=testpassword
KEYRING_SERVICE_NAME_1=another-private-pypi-index.example.com
KEYRING_SERVICE_USERNAME_1=testusername
KEYRING_SERVICE_PASSWORD_1=testpassword

This can be used along with a requirements.txt containing appropriate --extra-index-url flags to avoid storing credentials in plain-text:

--extra-index-url https://private-pypi-index.example.com/simple

private-package==1.2.3

Note: Defining multiple identical credentials (service name and username) will result in the last defined password being returned as the environment variables are sorted by the keyring backend.

export KEYRING_SERVICE_NAME_0=https://private-pypi-index.example.com
export KEYRING_SERVICE_USERNAME_0=testusername
export KEYRING_SERVICE_PASSWORD_0=testpassword
export KEYRING_SERVICE_NAME_1=https://private-pypi-index.example.com
export KEYRING_SERVICE_USERNAME_1=testusername
export KEYRING_SERVICE_PASSWORD_1=testpassword_1
keyring get https://private-pypi-index.example.com testusername
testpassword_1

If there are multiple credentials defined for a service and no username is given when searching then None will be returned. For example, given the definitions above:

>>> import keyring
>>> cred = keyring.get_credential('https://private-pypi-index.example.com', None)
>>> print(cred)
None
