Sops yaml reference documentation

Open isavl opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Hello there.

Where I can find reference documentation for sops.yaml configuration file?

I don't think there is any authoritative documentation, as yet. The config.go file shows the structures expected (e.g. a creation rule is defined here).

It's not as convenient as a full documentation page, but it will probably help with structuring a .sops.yaml file!

Even just having an example YAML file with all the keys in it would help.

Yes, this is very much needed. And if only in an explanatory manner in the README. It's used there a few times, but one cannot find a human-language description about how it works, and how it is supposed to be used, e.g. can I globally define age keys (in the double sense) for multiple path_regex entries, how do we use master keys, is it possible to use input-type and output-type, and how, a.s.f.
