This repository contains a collection of samples and examples for managing secrets in serverless lambda applications and cloud functions. The samples correspond to my Secrets in Serverless blog post.

There are examples in Go, Node, and Python for each of the examples. The examples use Google Cloud Functions, but the concepts are largely applicable to other serverless technologies like AWS Lambda.

Each folder has its own set of examples and README to follow. Please click on a folder for more information.

• Environment variables - store and retrieve secrets via environment variables.

• Encrypted environment variables - store and retrieve secrets via environment variables whose values are encrypted with a KMS provider.

• Google Cloud Storage - store secrets in files on Google Cloud Storage and tightly control access via IAM.

If you would like to add a new language, please add it to all the examples. I want to provide a consistent experience for each example. Similarly, if you are adding a new example, please write it in all supported languages.
