my_vault_server_docker

vault in docker for testing vault_migrator, vault_renamer, and vault_deleter

Note: This project started becuase I wanted to have a local instance of vault to test a few vault utilities. The second goal was to see if I could automate as much of the install as possible.

This is all done in bash and terraform.

script	description
start_vault.sh	main script to start and configure vault. This script call a few other scripts and then terraform
vault_init.out	test to see if vault has need initialized. If not, it run the vault operator init command and output to json format and piped to a file
vault_unseal.sh	reads the output file using cat and jq and passes the keys into vault unseal in a for loop
vault_login.sh	logs in to vault using the root token
cleanup.sh	destroies all the terraform state objects, then shutsdown dockers, and finally deletes the ~/volumes directory. This does destroy the vault instance

terraform file	description
main.tf	the main terraform control file
auth.tf	configures auth/userpass and auth users
policies.tf	configure the policies
secrets	creates a few secrets for the tests
