Decrypt shush-like KMS-encrypted strings stored in the environment

silenceofthelambs

A python module that decrypts shush-like KMS-encrypted strings stored in the environment, for use in places where using shush env as your entrypoint is not an option, e.g. AWS Lambda.

Usage

silenceofthelambs has two key usages:

1. Imported and manually activated

   import silenceofthelambs
   
   # in your main() func, or wherever makes sense
   silenceofthelambs.decrypt()
   

   If you want to provide your own boto3 KMS client (e.g. if you need to use different credentials/region):

   import silenceofthelambs
   import boto3
   
   myclient = boto3.client("kms", .....)
   
   silenceofthelambs.decrypt(kms_client=myclient)
   

2. Imported and automatically activated

   silenceofthelambs also supports auto-activation, using a default boto3 KMS client.

   import silenceofthelambs.auto
