RCreds v1.2.0 - changelog

RCreds makes working with Rails 5.2/6/7 credentials easier

Tested on second ruby versions:

• 2.7.3
• 3.0.0
• 3.1.1

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'r_creds'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install r_creds

Run the generator:

$ rails generate r_creds:install

Usage

There are no need to do this:

Rails.application.credentials[Rails.env.to_sym][:aws][:access_key_id]

Use RCreds instead:

RCreds.fetch(:aws, :access_key_id)

RCreds give an ability to read credentials in credentials.yml, ENV or use default value!

# value set in credentials.yml
RCreds.fetch(:aws, :access_key_id) # output: secret_key_from_credentials_yaml

# no value in credentials.yml but,
ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'] = 'aws_key_from_env_variable'
RCreds.fetch(:aws, :access_key_id) # output: aws_key_from_env_variable

# no value in credentials.yml and ENV - use default
RCreds.fetch(:aws, :access_key_id, default: 'some_default_test_key') # output: some_default_test_key

RCreds searches for values in following order: credentials.yml > ENV > default and returns nil if nothing match

DEPRECATED

Rails 6 loads only one specific environment credentials and does not allow to cahnge it.

RCreds uses Rails.env to determinate environment. But you can set any environment.

RCreds.fetch(:aws, :access_key_id, environment: 'production')

Will be removed in next version

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
