Pulumi Vault Provider: Installation & Configuration

The Pulumi Vault provider uses the Vault SDK to manage resources.

Installation

The HashiCorp Vault provider is available as a package in all Pulumi languages:

• JavaScript/TypeScript: @pulumi/vault
• Python: pulumi-vault
• Go: github.com/pulumi/pulumi-vault/sdk/v4/go/vault
• .NET: Pulumi.Vault
• Java: com.pulumi/vault

Configuration

Pulumi relies on the Vault SDK to authenticate requests from your computer to HashiCorp Vault. Your credentials are never sent to pulumi.com.

Once the credentials are obtained, there are two ways to communicate your configuration tokens to Pulumi:

1. Set the environment variables VAULT_ADDR and VAULT_TOKEN:

   $ export VAULT_ADDR=XXXXXX
   $ export VAULT_TOKEN=YYYYYY
   

2. Set them using configuration, if you prefer that they be stored alongside your Pulumi stack for easy multi-user access:

   $ pulumi config set vault:address XXXXXX
   $ pulumi config set vault:token YYYYYY --secret
   

The complete list of configuration parameters is in the HashiCorp Vault provider README. Remember to pass --secret when setting token so that it is properly encrypted.
