buunstack

A Python package for buun-stack that provides secure secrets management with HashiCorp Vault using pre-acquired Vault tokens from JupyterHub for seamless authentication.

Features

🔒 Secure Secrets Management: Integration with HashiCorp Vault
🚀 Pre-acquired Authentication: Uses Vault tokens created at notebook spawn
📱 Simple API: Easy-to-use interface for secrets storage and retrieval
🔄 Automatic Token Renewal: Built-in token refresh for long-running sessions
🏢 Enterprise Ready: Built for production environments

Quick Start

Installation

pip install buunstack

Basic Usage

from buunstack import SecretStore

# Initialize with pre-acquired Vault token (automatic)
secrets = SecretStore()

# Put API keys and configuration
secrets.put('api-keys',
    openai_key='sk-your-key-here',
    github_token='ghp_your-token',
    database_url='postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db'
)

# Get secrets
api_keys = secrets.get('api-keys')
openai_key = api_keys['openai_key']

# List all your secrets
all_secrets = secrets.list()

Configuration Options

# Disable JupyterHub token synchronization
secrets = SecretStore(sync_with_jupyterhub=False)

# Custom token validity buffer
secrets = SecretStore(
    sync_with_jupyterhub=True,
    refresh_buffer_seconds=600  # Sync tokens 10 minutes before expiry
)

# Check synchronization status
status = secrets.get_status()
print(f"JupyterHub sync enabled: {status['sync_with_jupyterhub']}")
print(f"API configured: {status.get('jupyterhub_api_configured', False)}")

Environment Variables Helper

from buunstack import SecretStore, get_env_from_secrets, put_env_to_secrets

secrets = SecretStore()

# Put environment variables
project_env = {
    'PROJECT_NAME': 'ml-research',
    'MODEL_VERSION': 'v2.1',
    'DEBUG': 'false'
}
put_env_to_secrets(secrets, project_env)

# Get environment variables
loaded_vars = get_env_from_secrets(secrets)
# Now available as os.environ['PROJECT_NAME'], etc.
