NAME
|
|||
|
----
|
|||
|
ansible-vault - manage encrypted YAML data.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|||
|
--------
|
|||
|
ansible-vault [create|decrypt|edit|encrypt|rekey] [--help] [options] file_name
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|||
|
-----------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*ansible-vault* can encrypt any structured data file used by Ansible. This can include
|
|||
|
*group_vars/* or *host_vars/* inventory variables, variables loaded by *include_vars* or
|
|||
|
*vars_files*, or variable files passed on the ansible-playbook command line with
|
|||
|
*-e @file.yml* or *-e @file.json*. Role variables and defaults are also included!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Because Ansible tasks, handlers, and so on are also data, these can also be encrypted with
|
|||
|
vault. If you’d like to not betray what variables you are even using, you can go as far to
|
|||
|
keep an individual task file entirely encrypted.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
COMMON OPTIONS
|
|||
|
--------------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The following options are available to all sub-commands:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*--vault-password-file=*'FILE'::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
A file containing the vault password to be used during the encryption/decryption
|
|||
|
steps. Be sure to keep this file secured if it is used.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*-h*, *--help*::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Show a help message related to the given sub-command.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*--debug*::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Enable debugging output for troubleshooting.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
CREATE
|
|||
|
------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*$ ansible-vault create [options] FILE*
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The *create* sub-command is used to initialize a new encrypted file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
First you will be prompted for a password. The password used with vault currently
|
|||
|
must be the same for all files you wish to use together at the same time.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After providing a password, the tool will launch whatever editor you have defined
|
|||
|
with $EDITOR, and defaults to vim. Once you are done with the editor session, the
|
|||
|
file will be saved as encrypted data.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The default cipher is AES (which is shared-secret based).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
EDIT
|
|||
|
----
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*$ ansible-vault edit [options] FILE*
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The *edit* sub-command is used to modify a file which was previously encrypted
|
|||
|
using ansible-vault.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This command will decrypt the file to a temporary file and allow you to edit the
|
|||
|
file, saving it back when done and removing the temporary file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
REKEY
|
|||
|
-----
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*$ ansible-vault rekey [options] FILE_1 [FILE_2, ..., FILE_N]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The *rekey* command is used to change the password on a vault-encrypted files.
|
|||
|
This command can update multiple files at once, and will prompt for both the
|
|||
|
old and new passwords before modifying any data.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ENCRYPT
|
|||
|
-------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*$ ansible-vault encrypt [options] FILE_1 [FILE_2, ..., FILE_N]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The *encrypt* sub-command is used to encrypt pre-existing data files. As with the
|
|||
|
*rekey* command, you can specify multiple files in one command.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
DECRYPT
|
|||
|
-------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*$ ansible-vault decrypt [options] FILE_1 [FILE_2, ..., FILE_N]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The *decrypt* sub-command is used to remove all encryption from data files. The files
|
|||
|
will be stored as plain-text YAML once again, so be sure that you do not run this
|
|||
|
command on data files with active passwords or other sensitive data. In most cases,
|
|||
|
users will want to use the *edit* sub-command to modify the files securely.
