secret-key-database 0.1.3

A simple Python package for encrypting and decrypting secret keys.

secret_key_database

This is a very simple library to encrypt and store secret keys (or any text) locally.
The keys are stored in a local sqlite database. The keys are encrypted using AES-GCM. That's it. In theory, the database file can be shared publicly since the keys are encrypted and require a password to decrypt, but it's best to keep it private.
This approach works great when:

• Number of keys is small
• The keys are not very sensitive (e.g. low risk API keys)
• You store the database in a semi-secure location (computer with a password, private repository, etc.)
• You don't want to use an external or cloud service as a key/password manager
• You need a simple API to store and retrieve keys

Installation

pip install secret_key_database

from source:

git clone https://github.com/RichieHakim/secret_key_database
cd secret_key_database
pip install -e .

Demo

import secret_key_database as skd

# Create a new database
path_db = 'path/to/database.db'
db = skd.database.create_database(path_db)

# Add a new key
skd.user.add_key_to_database(
    path_db=path_db,
    name='key_name',
)

# Get a key
key = skd.user.get_key_from_database(
    path_db=path_db,
    name='key_name',
)

# Check out available keys by name
print(skd.database.get_names_from_database(path_db=path_db))
