Basic Usage

Requires dbus and gmp development libraries installed.

On ubuntu, requires libdbus-1-dev and libgmp-dev.

In Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
secret-service = "0.2.0"

If you have cargo-extras installed, can replace above step with the command at the prompt in your project directory:

$ cargo add secret-service

In source code (below example is for --bin, not --lib)

extern crate secret_service;
use secret_service::SecretService;
use secret_service::EncryptionType;

fn main() {

    // initialize secret service (dbus connection and encryption session)
    let ss = SecretService::new(EncryptionType::Dh).unwrap();

    // get default collection
    let collection = ss.get_default_collection().unwrap();

    //create new item
    collection.create_item(
        "test_label", // label
        vec![("test", "test_value")], // properties
        b"test_secret", //secret
        false, // replace item with same attributes
        "text/plain" // secret content type
    ).unwrap();

    // search items by properties
    let search_items = ss.search_items(
        vec![("test", "test_value")]
    ).unwrap();

    let item = search_items.get(0).unwrap();

    // retrieve secret from item
    let secret = item.get_secret().unwrap();
    assert_eq!(secret, b"test_secret");

    // delete item (deletes the dbus object, not the struct instance)
    item.delete().unwrap()
}

Functionality

• SecretService: initialize dbus, create plain/encrypted session.
• Collections: create, delete, search.
• Items: create, delete, search, get/set secret.

Todo

• use map_err(|_| SsError::Parse) for inner()? can't try! because inner() doesn't return an Error type in the Result. Or just unwrap()?
• some refactoring (a list is in lib.rs)
• clear failed tests? (there is no "after" currently)
• move tests to integration tests?
• Should/can struct instances be deleted when dbus object is deleted?
