Deprecated!

This library came into existence to help manage secrets in AWS's ECS as described here.

This was before ECS had support for secrets and now that it does, PMG no longer uses these commands.

pmg/cred-commands

These are a set of symfony console commands that interact with the AWS SSM Parameter Store.

The goal here is to provide an easy way to fetch credentials into memory (environment variabls) on application boot. See this blog post for some details on why one might want to do this.

Installation

composer require pmg/cred-commands

Usage

Using the Built In Application

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php

use Aws\Ssm\SsmClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\Application;
use PMG\CredCommands\CredentialClient;

$ssm = SsmClient::factory([
  'version' => 'latest',
  'region' => 'us-east-1',
]);
$client = new CredentialClient($ssm);

$app = new Application($client, 'App Name', 'App Version');

$app->run();

Add Commands to an Existing Console Application

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php

use Aws\Ssm\SsmClient;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Application;
use PMG\CredCommands\CredentialClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\Command\GetCommand;
use PMG\CredCommands\Command\PutCommand;
use PMG\CredCommands\Command\RemoveCommand;

$app = new Application();

// other command added here or something...

$ssm = SsmClient::factory([
  'version' => 'latest',
  'region' => 'us-east-1',
]);
$client = new CredentialClient($ssm);

$app->add(new GetCommand($client));
$app->add(new PutCommand($client));
$app->add(new RemoveCommand($client));

$app->run();

CLI Usage

./bin/console creds:{get,put,remove}

Custom Credential Name Formatting

By default all credential names passed to the CLI are used directly, but that can be changed with a CredentialNameFormatter implementation.

There a few provided by default, all in the PMG\CredCommands\Formatter namespace.

NullFormatter

This is the default, just returns the credential name directly.

use PMG\CredCommands\Formatter\NullFormatter;

$formatter = new NullFormatter();

$formater->format('someCredential'); // 'someCredential'

TemplateFormatter

Takes a $template in its constructor and replaces a {cred} in that template with the cred name.

use PMG\CredCommands\Formatter\TemplateFormatter;

$formatter = new TemplateFormater('prefix_{cred}');

$formater->format('someCredential'); // 'prefix_someCredential'

AppEnvFormatter

Builds a path-like credential name in the format /{appName}/{environment}/{cred}.

use PMG\CredCommands\Formatter\AppEnvFormatter;

$formatter = new AppEnvFormater('appName', 'prod');

$formater->format('someCredential'); // '/appName/prod/someCredential'

Why Format at All?

Because it prefixed parameter names can be used to restrict credential access by configuring IAM permissions that use the actual parameter names.

For instance, an IAM role might only include permissions to access params named /appName/prod/*.

Using Formatters

Formatters can be passed as the second argument to the CredentialClient.

<?php

use Aws\Ssm\SsmClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\Application;
use PMG\CredCommands\CredentialClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\Command\GetCommand;
use PMG\CredCommands\Formatter\AppEnvFormatter;

$ssm = SsmClient::factory([
  // ...
]);
$client = new CredentialClient(
    $ssm,
    new AppEnvFormatter('example', 'dev')
);

// new GetCommand($client);
// new Application($client, 'name', 'version');
// etc.

Using Custom KMS Keys for Parameter Encryption

By default AWS (and by extension this library) uses an AWS account's default KMS key to encrypt parameters when their types are set to SecureString as they are in this library.

Pass a third argument into the CredentialClient to specify a KMS key ID. This can be the actual key ID (a UUID) or a key alias (in the format alias/{alias-name}).

<?php

use Aws\Ssm\SsmClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\CredentialClient;
use PMG\CredCommands\Formatter\AppEnvFormatter;

$ssm = SsmClient::factory([
  // ...
]);

// with a key ID (example, not a real key ID)
$client = new CredentialClient(
    $ssm,
    new AppEnvFormatter('example', 'dev'),
    'df502ce0-49e1-4579-a682-395274de6eb4',
);

// with a key alias (example, not a real key alias)
$client = new CredentialClient(
    $ssm,
    new AppEnvFormatter('example', 'dev'),
    'alias/some-alias-here'
);
