Vault 12factor and Django integration
This project provides helper classes for integrating
Hashicorp Vault with your Python projects and
Django.
Please note that this is still under active development and APIs are subject
to change.

Installation
This has been uploaded to the Cheeseshop aka Pypi as
12factor-vault. So just add
12factor-vault to your requirements.txt or setup.py.
pip install 12factor-vault also works.

Environment variables


Environment Variable
Vault auth backend
Direct configuration
static method on
BaseVaultAuthenticator



VAULT_TOKEN
Token authentication
token(str)

VAULT_APPID, VAULT_USERID
App-id authenticaion
app_id(str, str)

VAULT_ROLEID, VAULT_SECRETID
Approle authentication
approle(str, str, str,
bool)

VAULT_SSLCERT, VAULT_SSLKEY
SSL Client authentication
ssl_client_cert(str,
str)



The Django example below uses the following environment variables:


Environment Variable
Description



VAULT_DATABASE_PATH
The path to Vault’s credential-issuing backend

VAULT_CA
The CA issuing Vault’s HTTPS SSL certificate (for
CA pinning)

DATABASE_NAME
Name of the database to connect to on the database
server.

DATABASE_OWNERROLE
The PostgreSQL role to use for SET ROLE after
connecting to the database






General usage
Basically after configuring a BaseVaultAuthenticator instance which creates
authenticated Vault clients (relying on the excellent
hvac library) you can use that to create
VaultCredentialProvider instances which manage leases and renew credentials
as needed (e.g. database credentials managed by one of Vault’s secrets
backends).
VaultAuth12Factor is a subclass of BaseVaultAuthenticator that reads
all necessary configuration from environment variables.


Django
Integrating with Django requires a small monkeypatch that retries failed
database connections after refreshing the database credentials from Vault. The
vault12factor Django App will install that patch automatically. You also
have to wrap your database settings dict in a
DjangoAutoRefreshDBCredentialsDict instance that knows hot to refresh
database credentials from Vault.
vault12factor will check if an instance of
DjangoAutoRefreshDBCredentialsDict is configured in settings.DATABASES
before monkey-patching Django. So if you want to use vault12factor but
configure your databases in separate Django apps or other things that this code
can’t detect, you will want to call vault12factor.monkeypatch_django()
yourself.
Here is an example for integrating this with Django, using Vault to get
database credentials. When using PostgreSQL you will also want to look at
django-postgresql-setrole.
# in settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ['django_dbconn_retry', 'vault12factor',]

from vault12factor import \
VaultCredentialProvider, \
VaultAuth12Factor, \
DjangoAutoRefreshDBCredentialsDict

if DEBUG and not VaultAuth12Factor.has_envconfig():
SECRET_KEY = "secretsekrit" # FOR DEBUG ONLY!
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
'NAME': 'authserver.sqlite3',
}
}
else:
if DEBUG:
SECRET_KEY = "secretsekrit" # FOR DEBUG ONLY!

VAULT = VaultAuth12Factor.fromenv()
CREDS = VaultCredentialProvider("https://vault.local:8200/", VAULT,
os.getenv("VAULT_DATABASE_PATH",
"db-mydatabase/creds/fullaccess"),
os.getenv("VAULT_CA", None), True,
DEBUG)

DATABASES = {
'default': DjangoAutoRefreshDBCredentialsDict(CREDS, {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
'NAME': os.getenv("DATABASE_NAME", "mydatabase"),
'USER': CREDS.username,
'PASSWORD': CREDS.password,
'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
'PORT': '5432',
# requires django-postgresql-setrole
'SET_ROLE': os.getenv("DATABASE_OWNERROLE", "mydatabaseowner")
}),
}
