SOPS: Secrets OPerationS. Tool for managing secrets. More information: https://github.com/mozilla/sops.
  • Encrypt a file:
    sops -e {{path/to/myfile.json}} > {{path/to/myfile.enc.json}}
  • Decrypt a file to stdout:
    sops -d {{path/to/myfile.enc.json}}
  • Rotate data keys for a sops file:
    sops -r {{path/to/myfile.enc.yaml}}
  • Change the extension of the file once encrypted:
    sops -d --input-type json {{path/to/myfile.enc.json}}
  • Extract keys by naming them, and array elements by numbering them:
    sops -d --extract '["an_array"][1]' {{path/to/myfile.enc.json}}
  • Show the difference between two sops files:
    diff <(sops -d {{path/to/secret1.enc.yaml}}) <(sops -d {{path/to/secret2.enc.yaml}})
