httpose

Codefresh build status

A quick and dirty solution to "HTTP-expose" secret meant for Docker build.

Caveat: This does not employ any SSL over HTTP, and assumes the working networking environment is safe without encryption (e.g. localhost).

Get Started

Simply run

# stdin
## Serves at `127.0.0.1:2048` by default
./httpose (secret will be consumed via stdin)
## (CTRL-C to terminate)

## Pipe in also works
echo xxx | ./httpose
## (CTRL-C to terminate)

# env var
HTTPOSE_SECRET=xxx ./httpose
## (CTRL-C to terminate)

# by file
echo xxx > /tmp/secret
./httpose -f /tmp/secret
## (CTRL-C to terminate)
rm /tmp/secret

## Serves at 0.0.0.0 interface and port 12345
## Not recommended to serve out of 127.0.0.1 unless within Docker bridge mode
./httpose -a 0.0.0.0:12345

## Help details
./httpose -h

You can get the secret value by curl-ing or wget when the service is up:

# curl
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:2048/

# wget
wget -qO - http://127.0.0.1:2048/

Changelogs

See CHANGELOG.md for more details.

Cargo build

You will need to install cargo and rustc. See (rustup)[https://rustup.rs] for more information.

To build in release mode via cargo, simply run:

cargo build --release

To execute, simply run:

cargo run --release -- [args...]

Docker build

To build the image, simply run:

docker build . -t httpose

# Host network mode for simplicity
docker run --rm -it --net host httpose

# Bridge mode, requires changing of listening address
docker run --rm -it -p 2048:2048 httpose -a "0.0.0.0:2048"

# Secret by env var (not recommended because docker inspect can see the secret)
docker run -e HTTPOSE_SECRET=xxx --rm -it --net host httpose

# Secret by file
docker run -v "`pwd`/xxx:/xxx" --rm -it --net host httpose -f "/xxx"

# Help details
docker run --rm -it httpose -h
