Build Status GoDoc

keyprotect-go-client is a Go client library for interacting with the IBM KeyProtect service.

Questions / Support

There are many channels for asking questions about KeyProtect and this client.

  • Ask a question on Stackoverflow and tag it with key-protect and ibm-cloud
  • Open a Github Issue
  • If you work at IBM and have access to the internal Slack, you can join the #key-protect channel and ask there.

Usage

This client expects that you have an existing IBM Cloud Key Protect Service Instance. To get started, visit the IBM KeyProtect Catalog Page.

Build a client with ClientConfig and New, then use the client to do some operations.

import kp "github.com/IBM/keyprotect-go-client"

// Use your IAM API Key and your KeyProtect Service Instance GUID/UUID to create a ClientConfig
cc := kp.ClientConfig{
	BaseURL:       kp.DefaultBaseURL,
	APIKey:        "......",
	InstanceID:    "1234abcd-906d-438a-8a68-deadbeef1a2b3",
}

// Build a new client from the config
client := kp.New(cc, kp.DefaultTransport())

// List keys in your KeyProtect instance
keys, err := client.GetKeys(context.Background(), 0, 0)

Migrating

For users of the original key-protect-client that is now deprecated, this library is a drop in replacement. Updating the package reference to github.com/IBM/keyprotect-go-client should be the only change needed. If you are worried about new incompatible changes, version v0.3.1 of key-protect-client is equivalent to version v0.3.3 of keyprotect-go-client, so pinning v0.3.3 of the new library should be sufficient to pull from the new repo with no new functional changes.

Authentication

The KeyProtect client requires a valid IAM API Key that is passed via the APIKey field in the ClientConfig. The client will call IAM to get an access token for that API key, caches the access token, and reuses that token on subsequent calls. If the access token is expired, the client will call IAM to get a new access token.

Alternatively, you may also inject your own tokens during runtime. When using your own tokens, it's the responsibilty of the caller to ensure the access token is valid and is not expired. You can specify the access token in either the ClientConfig structure or on the context (see below.)

To specify authorization token on the context:

// Create a ClientConfig and Client like before, but without an APIKey
cc := kp.ClientConfig{
	BaseURL:       kp.DefaultBaseURL,
	InstanceID:    "1234abcd-906d-438a-8a68-deadbeef1a2b3",
}
client := kp.New(cc, kp.DefaultTransport())

// Use NewContextWithAuth to add your token into the context
ctx := context.Background()
ctx = kp.NewContextWithAuth(ctx, "Bearer ABCDEF123456....")

// List keys with our injected token via the context
keys, err := api.GetKeys(ctx, 0, 0)

For information on IAM API Keys and tokens please refer to the IAM docs

Finding a KeyProtect Service Instance's UUID

The client requires a valid UUID that identifies your KeyProtect Service Instance to be able to interact with your key data in the instance. An instance is somewhat like a folder or directory of keys; you can have many of them per account, but the keys they contain are separate and cannot be shared between instances.

The IBM Cloud CLI can be used to find the UUID for your KeyProtect instance.

$ ic resource service-instances
OK
Name                                                              Location   State    Type
Key Protect-private                                               us-south   active   service_instance
Key Protect-abc123                                                us-east    active   service_instance

Find the name of your KeyProtect instance as you created it, and the use the client to get its details. The Instance ID is the GUID field, or if you do not see GUID, it will be the last part of the CRN. For example:

$ ic resource service-instance "Key Protect-private"
OK

Name:                  Key Protect-private
ID:                    crn:v1:bluemix:public:kms:us-south:a/.......:1234abcd-906d-438a-8a68-deadbeef1a2b3::
GUID:                  1234abcd-906d-438a-8a68-deadbeef1a2b3

Examples

Generating a root key (CRK)

// Create a root key named MyRootKey with no expiration
key, err := client.CreateRootKey(ctx, "MyRootKey", nil)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(key.ID, key.Name)

crkID := key.ID

Generating a root key with policy overrides (CRK)

enable := true
// Specify policy data
policy := kp.Policy{
  Rotation: &kp.Rotation{
    Enabled:  &enable,
    Interval: 3,
  },
  DualAuth: &kp.DualAuth{
    Enabled:  &enable,
  },
}

// Create a root key named MyRootKey with a rotation and a dualAuthDelete policy
key, err := client.CreateRootKeyWithPolicyOverrides(ctx, "MyRootKey", nil, nil, policy)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(key.ID, key.Name)

crkID := key.ID

Wrapping and Unwrapping a DEK using a specific Root Key.

myDEK := []byte{"thisisadataencryptionkey"}
// Do some encryption with myDEK
// Wrap the DEK so we can safely store it
wrappedDEK, err := client.Wrap(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, myDEK, nil)


// Unwrap the DEK
dek, err := client.Unwrap(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, wrappedDEK, nil)
// Do some encryption/decryption using the DEK
// Discard the DEK
dek = nil

Note you can also pass additional authentication data (AAD) to wrap and unwrap calls to provide another level of protection for your DEK. The AAD is a string array with each element up to 255 chars. For example:

myAAD := []string{"First aad string", "second aad string", "third aad string"}
myDEK := []byte{"thisisadataencryptionkey"}
// Do some encryption with myDEK
// Wrap the DEK so we can safely store it
wrappedDEK, err := client.Wrap(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, myDEK, &myAAD)


// Unwrap the DEK
dek, err := client.Unwrap(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, wrappedDEK, &myAAD)
// Do some encryption/decryption using the DEK
// Discard the DEK
dek = nil

Have key protect create a DEK for you:

  • To Get the keyversion along with DEK and wrapped DEK use WrapCreateDEKV2()
dek, wrappedDek, err := client.WrapCreateDEK(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, nil)
// Do some encrypt/decrypt with the dek
// Discard the DEK
dek = nil

// Save the wrapped DEK for later.  Use Unwrap to use it.

Can also specify AAD:

myAAD := []string{"First aad string", "second aad string", "third aad string"}
dek, wrappedDek, err := client.WrapCreateDEK(ctx, crkIDOrAlias, &myAAD)
// Do some encrypt/decrypt with the dek
// Discard the DEK
dek = nil

// Save the wrapped DEK for later.  Call Unwrap to use it, make
// sure to specify the same AAD.

Fetching keys based on query parameters

limit := uint32(5)
offset := uint32(0)
extractable := false
keyStates := []kp.KeyState{kp.KeyState(kp.Active), kp.KeyState(kp.Suspended)}
searchStr := "foobar"
searchQuery, _ := kp.GetKeySearchQuery(&searchStr, kp.ApplyNot(), kp.AddAliasScope())

listKeysOptions := &kp.ListKeysOptions{
  Limit : &limit,
  Offset : &offset,
  Extractable : &extractable,
  State : keyStates,
  Search: searchQuery,
}

keys, err := client.ListKeys(ctx, listKeysOptions)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keys)

Fetching keys in ascending or descending sorted order of parameters

srtStr, _ := kp.GetKeySortStr(kp.WithCreationDate(), WithImportedDesc())

listKeysOptions := &kp.ListKeysOptions{
  Sort:srtStr,
}

keys, err := client.ListKeys(ctx, listKeysOptions)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keys)

offset := uint32(0)
totalCount := true

listkeyVersionsOptions := &kp.ListKeyVersionsOptions{
  Limit : &limit,
  Offset : &offset,
  TotalCount : &totalCount,
}

keyVersions, err := client.ListKeyVersions(ctx, "key_id_or_alias", listkeyVersionsOptions)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keyVersions)

Enable instance rotation policy

intervalMonth := 3
enable := true

err := client.SetRotationInstancePolicy(context.Background(), enable, &intervalMonth)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}

rotationInstancePolicy, err := client.GetRotationInstancePolicy(context.Background())
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(rotationInstancePolicy)

Set key rotation policy

rotationInterval := 3
enabled := true
keyRotationPolicy, err := client.SetRotationPolicy(context.Background(), "key_id_or_alias", rotationInterval, enabled)
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keyRotationPolicy)

Enable key rotation policy

keyRotationPolicy, err := client.EnableRotationPolicy(context.Background(), "key_id_or_alias")
if err != nil {
  fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keyRotationPolicy)

List keys based on filter properties

// Option-1 - Directly passing the filter query in the format that the API supports.
filterQuery := "creationDate=gt:\"2022-07-05T00:00:00Z\" state=1,5 extractable=false"

listKeysOptions := &kp.ListKeysOptions{
  Filter:&filterQuery,
}

keys, err := client.ListKeys(ctx, listKeysOptions)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keys)

// Option-2 - Using the builder provided by SDK to construct the filter query
fb := kp.GetFilterQueryBuilder()
dateQ := time.Date(2022, 07, 04, 07, 43, 23, 100, time.UTC)

filterQuery := fb.CreationDate().GreaterThan(dateQ).
	State([]kp.KeyState{kp.KeyState(kp.Destroyed), kp.KeyState(kp.Active)}).
	Extractable(true).
	Build()

listKeysOptions := &kp.ListKeysOptions{
  Filter:&filterQuery,
}

keys, err := client.ListKeys(ctx, listKeysOptions)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println(keys)

Support for Adding Custom Header

  1. From ServiceClient (For Every API Call)
cc := kp.ClientConfig{
    BaseURL:    "BASE_URL",
    APIKey:     "API_KEY",
    InstanceID: "INSTANCE_ID",
    Headers: http.Header{
      "Custom-Header":  {"Custom-Value"},
    },
  }
  1. From ServiceCall (Per API Call)
  • Define Header just before the API Call and Empty out when done.
client.Config.Headers = make(http.Header))
client.Config.Headers.Set("Custom-Header", "Custom-Header-Value")

key, err := client.CreateKey(params)
  if err != nil {
    panic(err)
  }

client.Config.Headers = http.Header{}
