git clone https://github.com/vidaldiego/zn-vault-sdk-python.git
cd zn-vault-sdk-python
pip install -e .

Quick Start

from znvault import ZnVaultClient, SecretType, CreateSecretRequest

# Create client with API key
client = ZnVaultClient.create(
    "https://vault.example.com:8443",
    api_key="znv_xxxx"
)

# Or use the builder pattern
client = (
    ZnVaultClient.builder()
    .base_url("https://vault.example.com:8443")
    .api_key("znv_xxxx")
    .timeout(60)
    .trust_self_signed(True)  # For development
    .build()
)

# Check health
health = client.health.check()
print(f"Status: {health.status}")

# Login with username/password
auth = client.auth.login("username", "password")
print(f"Logged in: {auth.access_token[:30]}...")

Authentication

Username/Password

# Login
result = client.auth.login("alice", "password123", totp_code="123456")

# Refresh token
new_tokens = client.auth.refresh()

# Get current user
user = client.auth.me()
print(f"Username: {user.username}")

# Logout
client.auth.logout()

API Keys

# Create API key
key = client.auth.create_api_key("my-service", expires_in="90d")
print(f"Key: {key.key}")  # Only shown once

# List API keys
keys = client.auth.list_api_keys()

# Revoke API key
client.auth.revoke_api_key(key.id)

Secrets Management

Create Secrets

from znvault import CreateSecretRequest, SecretType

# Create a credential secret
request = CreateSecretRequest(
    alias="api/production/db-creds",
    tenant="acme",
    type=SecretType.CREDENTIAL,
    data={"username": "dbuser", "password": "secret123"},
    tags=["production", "database"]
)
secret = client.secrets.create(request)
print(f"Created: {secret.id}")

Retrieve Secrets

# Get metadata by ID
secret = client.secrets.get("secret-id")

# Get by tenant and alias
secret = client.secrets.get_by_alias("acme", "api/production/db-creds")

# Decrypt secret value
data = client.secrets.decrypt("secret-id")
password = data.data["password"]

Update and Delete

from znvault import UpdateSecretRequest

# Update secret (creates new version)
update = UpdateSecretRequest(
    data={"username": "newuser", "password": "newpass"}
)
secret = client.secrets.update("secret-id", update)
print(f"New version: {secret.version}")

# Delete secret
client.secrets.delete("secret-id")

List and Filter

from znvault import SecretFilter, SecretType

# List with filters
filter = SecretFilter(
    tenant="acme",
    env="production",
    type=SecretType.CREDENTIAL,
    limit=100
)
secrets = client.secrets.list(filter)

Pattern Matching & Search

Use wildcard patterns with * to query secrets by path:

from znvault import SecretFilter

# Find all secrets under a path
web_secrets = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(alias_pattern="web/*"))

# Find secrets containing "/env/" anywhere in the path
env_secrets = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(alias_pattern="*/env/*"))

# SQL-like pattern matching
db_secrets = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(alias_pattern="*/env/secret_*"))

# Match multiple path segments
# Matches: db-mysql/production, db-postgres/prod-us, etc.
prod_db = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(alias_pattern="db-*/prod*"))

# Combine pattern with type filter
credentials = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(
    alias_pattern="*/production/*",
    type=SecretType.CREDENTIAL
))

# Search for expiring certificates matching a pattern
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

expiring_certs = client.secrets.list(SecretFilter(
    alias_pattern="*/ssl/*",
    sub_type="certificate",
    expiring_before=datetime.now() + timedelta(days=30)
))

Pattern Examples:

Pattern	Matches
web/*	web/api, web/frontend/config
*/env/*	app/env/vars, service/env/config
db-*/prod*	db-mysql/production, db-postgres/prod-us
*secret*	my-secret, api/secret/key, secret-config
*/production/db-*	app/production/db-main, api/production/db-replica

File Upload/Download

# Upload a file as a secret
secret = client.secrets.upload_file(
    alias="ssl/production/cert",
    tenant="acme",
    file_path="/path/to/cert.pem",
    tags=["certificate", "ssl"]
)

# Download a file secret
client.secrets.download_file("secret-id", "/path/to/output.pem")

Keypair Generation and Public Key Publishing

from znvault import GenerateKeypairRequest

# Generate an Ed25519 keypair
keypair = client.secrets.generate_keypair(
    GenerateKeypairRequest(
        algorithm="Ed25519",
        alias="ssh/production/deploy-key",
        tenant="acme",
        comment="Production deployment key",
        tags=["ssh", "deployment"]
    )
)

# Access private and public keys
print(f"Private key ID: {keypair.private_key.id}")
print(f"Public key ID: {keypair.public_key.id}")
print(f"Fingerprint: {keypair.public_key.fingerprint}")
print(f"OpenSSH format: {keypair.public_key.public_key_openssh}")

# Generate RSA keypair with custom key size
rsa_keypair = client.secrets.generate_keypair(
    GenerateKeypairRequest(
        algorithm="RSA",
        alias="ssh/production/rsa-key",
        tenant="acme",
        rsa_bits=4096,
        publish_public_key=True  # Automatically publish the public key
    )
)

# Generate ECDSA keypair
ecdsa_keypair = client.secrets.generate_keypair(
    GenerateKeypairRequest(
        algorithm="ECDSA",
        alias="ssh/production/ecdsa-key",
        tenant="acme",
        ecdsa_curve="P-384"
    )
)

# Publish a public key (make it publicly accessible)
result = client.secrets.publish(keypair.public_key.id)
print(f"Public URL: {result.public_url}")
print(f"Fingerprint: {result.fingerprint}")

# Get a published public key (no authentication required)
public_key = client.secrets.get_public_key("acme", "ssh/production/deploy-key")
print(f"Algorithm: {public_key.algorithm}")
print(f"Public key (PEM): {public_key.public_key_pem}")

# List all published public keys for a tenant (no authentication required)
public_keys = client.secrets.list_public_keys("acme")
for key in public_keys:
    print(f"{key.alias}: {key.fingerprint}")

# Unpublish a public key (make it private again)
client.secrets.unpublish(keypair.public_key.id)
