The examples below assume that credentials have been saved to your environment. If you don't have variables saved to your environment or you wish to use different credentials than those defined, any of the optional arguments listed above may be passed to Barbican.
Barbican takes a positional argument <entity>, which specifies whether you wish to operate on a secret or an order.
Secrets
$ barbican secret <action>
A subcommand describing the action to be performed should follow. The subcommands are mostly the same for secrets and orders, although some optional arguments only apply to one or the other.
Subcommand actions that a user can take for secrets are:
secret delete Delete a secret by providing its URI.
secret get Retrieve a secret by providing its URI.
secret list List secrets.
secret store Store a secret in Barbican.
Each subcommand takes in a different set of arguments, and the help message varies from one to another. The help message for get can be seen below.
$ barbican help secret get
usage: barbican secret get [-h] [-f {shell,table,value}] [-c COLUMN]
[--max-width <integer>] [--prefix PREFIX]
[--decrypt] [--payload]
[--payload_content_type PAYLOAD_CONTENT_TYPE]
URI
Retrieve a secret by providing its URI.
positional arguments:
URI The URI reference for the secret.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--decrypt, -d if specified, retrieve the unencrypted secret data;
the data type can be specified with --payload-content-
type.
--payload, -p if specified, retrieve the unencrypted secret data;
the data type can be specified with --payload-content-
type. If the user wishes to only retrieve the value of
the payload they must add "-f value" to format
returning only the value of the payload
--payload_content_type PAYLOAD_CONTENT_TYPE, -t PAYLOAD_CONTENT_TYPE
the content type of the decrypted secret (default:
text/plain.
output formatters:
output formatter options
-f {shell,table,value}, --format {shell,table,value}
the output format, defaults to table
-c COLUMN, --column COLUMN
specify the column(s) to include, can be repeated
table formatter:
--max-width <integer>
Maximum display width, 0 to disable
shell formatter:
a format a UNIX shell can parse (variable="value")
--prefix PREFIX add a prefix to all variable names

To retrieve only the raw value of the payload we have introduced the
-p
or --payload
option paired with the
-f value
cliff formatting option. (The
--decrypt
option will perform the same action; however, it
will be deprecated)
$ barbican secret get http://localhost:9311/v1/secrets/a70a45d8-4076-42a2-b111-8893d3b92a3e --payload -f value
my secret value

$ barbican secret delete http://localhost:9311/v1/secrets/a70a45d8-4076-42a2-b111-8893d3b92a3e
