storedsecrets 0.1.2

A module to handle secrets outside of projects

Stored Secrets handling module in Python

storedsecrets is a module implementing a simple approach to keep your secrets (API keys, passwords, ...) outside of your project files, so that you can protect them better (e.g. in an encrypted archive, or any form of external volume), and you don't leak them accidentally through your favorite versioning tool and platform.

storedsecrets exposes a StoredSecrets class to handle your secrets.

Typical usage:

>>> import storedsecrets
>>> my_secrets = storedsecrets.StoredSecrets("mysecretfile.json")
>>> API_KEY = my_secrets.get('API_KEY')

If the path of the file is not absolute, it will be searched for in the directory named in env var SECRETS, or in ~/etc/secrets by default.

This is minimalist work for the moment.
