Resource Name with hyphen (-) is giving error invalid memory address or nil pointer

[ashwanisharmamw]

I have secrets name with Hyphen in the name and i tired to pull these using index and getting nil pointer error

workers:

  resources:
  - kind: secret
  name: pem-test
  vaultBaseURL: https://test-key-vault.vault.azure.net/
  sinks:
  - path: ./test.secret
  template: '{{ index .Secrets "pem-test.Value" }}'

@vickicello - Can you please help on this issue

@ashwanisharmamw The .Value syntax unfortunately does not work on secret names that have special characters (like hyphens). One easy workaround is to create an alias for your secret name like this:

  resources:
  - kind: secret
    name: pem-test
    alias: pemtest
    vaultBaseURL: https://test-key-vault.vault.azure.net/
  sinks:
  - path: ./test.secret
    template: '{{ index .Secrets.pemtest.Value }}'

Hopefully using an alias will work for you.

Thanks @vickicello for your quick response, I will try this option and let you know, Just want to check is this alias works with all-secrets, I have dynamic list of secrets to get from the key vault for different service and want it use the all-secrets option

[vickicello]

Based on the readme it looks like alias would only work with key, cert, and secret resource kinds.

Thanks for the clarification.

@vickicello - Can you please share the example to read the pem file from the keys

[vickicello]

There are some examples for extracting pem files in the README: https://github.com/covermymeds/azure-key-vault-agent#ssl-cert--private-key
