ejson2env

ejson2env is a tool to simplify storing secrets that should be accessible in the shell environment in your git repo. ejson2env is based on the ejson library and extends the ejson file format.

ejson2env exports all of the values in the environment object in the ejson file to the shell environment.

For example, with the below ejson file:

{
    "_public_key": "<public key here>",
    "environment": {
        "SECRET_SHELL_VARIABLE": "<encrypted data>"
    }
}

Running:

$ ejson2env test.ejson

Would result in the following output:

export SECRET_SHELL_VARIABLE=<decrypted data>

You can then have your shell evaluate this output:

$ eval $(ejson2env test.ejson)
