The Go client library for Password Safe enables Go developers to easily manage passwords from Password Safe. It provides simplifications that significantly reduce the amount of code you need to write.
The library supports retrieval of secrets from BeyondInsight/Password Safe versions 23.1 or greater.

The TestClient.go provides example usage of the library.
and execute:
go build
go run TestClient.go
Download the pfx certificate from Secrets Safe and extract the certificate and the key.
openssl pkcs12 -in client_certificate.pfx -nocerts -out ps_key.pem -nodes
openssl pkcs12 -in client_certificate.pfx -clcerts -nokeys -out ps_cert.pem
Copy the text from the ps_key.pem to a secret.
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
...
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
Copy the text from the ps_cert.pem to a secret.
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
This library supports Zap, Logr, and go log package. The library can be extended to support other logging packages, see logging.go.
// create a zap logger
logger, _ := zap.NewProduction()
// logger, _ := zap.NewDevelopment()
// create a zap logger wrapper
zapLogger := logging.NewZapLogger(logger)

In order to use Release Please App, we need to use conventional commits, but here is a more comprehensive guide about some conventional commits that we can use.
Some of the more important and common commit types are:
Type | Description | Triggers Release Please |
---|---|---|
feat! | Introduce a major change e.g. v1.0.0 to v2.0.0 | Yes |
feat | Introduce a minor change e.g. v1.0.0 to v1.1.0 | Yes |
fix | Introduce a patch change e.g. v1.0.0 to v1.0.1 | Yes |
chore | Could introduce a BREAKING CHANGE into the CHANGELOG | Yes |
docs | Documentation update | No |
refactor | A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature | No |
test | Adding or modifying tests | No |
build | Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies | No |
ci | Changes to CI configuration files and scripts | No |
Remember, Release Please App will trigger once a PR with the conventional commit structure are merged into the main branch, so if you are working on features that are related to a Jira ticket, you can still use feat while developing, and because we can squash the commits once we want to merge the PR, only one commit with the conventional syntax will be on the history and on the changelog.
