Deploy mojo should use maven's encrypted password functionality

The maven's configuration allows for servers to include encrypted passwords as part of the config.

http://maven.apache.org/settings.html#Servers

We should update the plugin to read the encrypted profile data, to adhere to PCI and HIPAA rules, as well as just good operational practice.

See the following snippets of a deployer mojo that uses this functionality:

Hi @paulprogrammer You can still do it using profiles within your settings.xml. Thats how I have been using.

In your project's pom.xml, say you have the following profile:

<profile>
    <id>test</id>
    <properties>
    <apigee.profile>test</apigee.profile>
    <apigee.env>test</apigee.env>
    <apigee.hosturl>https://api.enterprise.apigee.com</apigee.hosturl>
    <apigee.apiversion>v1</apigee.apiversion>
    <apigee.org>${org}</apigee.org>
    <apigee.username>${username}</apigee.username>
    <apigee.password>${password}</apigee.password>
    <apigee.options>update</apigee.options>
    <api.northbound.domain>${org}-test.apigee.net</api.northbound.domain>
    <api.testtag>~@wip</api.testtag>
   </properties>
 </profile>

You can include a settings.xml in your ~/.m2 directory and externalize all of these params so that you dont have to pass them

For example:

<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0
                      https://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
 
    <profiles>
       <profile>
            <id>test</id>
            <properties>
                <org>apigeeOrg</org>
                <username>[email protected]</username>
                <password>secret</password>
                <env>test</env>
            </properties>
        </profile> 
    </profiles>
    <activeProfiles>
        <activeProfile>test</activeProfile>
    </activeProfiles>

</settings>

Once you have this, you can just execute mvn clean install -Ptest . The properties are automatically picked from settings.xml and applied

Or else you can use OAuth tokens where these passwords are not needed to be passed

@paulprogrammer - will the above comment help or are you looking for anything in particular ? IF not, please close this issue

Sai,

This helps, but it still requires the usernames and secrets are kept in cleartext on the developer's machine.

Maven has a feature for encrypted passwords https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-encryption.html that would be a more complete solution to the problem.
