I developed go-keyconfig after realizing that almost every CLI that I use on a daily basis that requires authentication of some kind drops the secrets in a local filesystem config file in plain-text. As one could imagine, this is ripe for an accidental git commit or easy reading from an attacker.<p>Every OS comes with a secrets manager of some kind... MacOS has OSX Keychain, Linux has GNOME Keyring, KWallet, and secret-service, even Windows has Credential Manager.<p>This module is designed to help developers creating apps or CLIs needing to store configuration values in config files a secure means of doing so. It supports All the secret managers mentioned above.<p>I would love to hear everyone&#x27;s feedback and thoughts!
