RFC: secrets for gotd
Currently gotd.conf holds some sensible data for http notifications in
plain. Furthermore gotd.conf has to be world-readable to not break
gotsh(1).
So, here's a proposal to break out the secrets in a separate config file
which can (and must) be owned by root and not world-readable. When
parsing the files for gotsh(1) or similar purpose we can skip the
"include".
It's mostly about syntax and taste, hence an RFC instead of a diff.
Let's bikeshed a bit and once we reach a consensus I'll start working on
it.
While here I couldn't help but also try to move "insecure" before "url",
because otherwise I would read it as "insecure auth", which could also be
fine, or "insecure hmac" which is... curious :)
# /etc/gotd.secrets.conf
auth "xyz" {
username "flan"
password "flan123!"
}
hmac "abc" {
secret "o0wgEB5QyRRKUwHlobeVX1JguCvkTBBohhQnINbxaOs="
}
# /etc/gotd.conf
include secret "/etc/gotd.secrets.conf" # root-owned; skipped by gotsh
repository "src.git" {
path "/var/git/src.git"
permit rw :developers
permit ro anonymous
notify {
branch "main"
insecure url "http://some.other.host:8080/foo" auth "xyz"
# or
insecure url "http://..." hmac "abc"
# or even both
}
}
Using for `url "..." auth' an undefined label or an hmac value will
produce an error. Likewise for `url "..." hmac'.
Opinions?
