httpose

A quick and dirty solution to "HTTP-expose" secret meant for Docker build.

Caveat: This does not employ any SSL over HTTP, and assumes the working networking environment is safe without encryption (e.g. localhost).

Get Started

Simply run

```bash

stdin

Serves at 127.0.0.1:2048 by default

./httpose (secret will be consumed via stdin)

(CTRL-C to terminate)

Pipe in also works

echo xxx | ./httpose

(CTRL-C to terminate)

env var

HTTPOSE_SECRET=xxx ./httpose

(CTRL-C to terminate)

by file

echo xxx > /tmp/secret ./httpose -f /tmp/secret

(CTRL-C to terminate)

rm /tmp/secret

Serves at 0.0.0.0 interface and port 12345

Not recommended to serve out of 127.0.0.1 unless within Docker bridge mode

./httpose -a 0.0.0.0:12345

Help details

./httpose -h ```

You can get the secret value by curl-ing or wget when the service is up:

```bash

curl

curl -s http://127.0.0.1:2048/

wget

wget -qO - http://127.0.0.1:2048/ ```

Changelogs

See CHANGELOG.md for more details.

Cargo build

You will need to install cargo and rustc. See (rustup)[https://rustup.rs] for more information.

To build in release mode via cargo, simply run:

bash cargo build --release

To execute, simply run:

bash cargo run --release -- [args...]

Docker build

To build the image, simply run:

```bash docker build . -t httpose

Host network mode for simplicity

docker run --rm -it --net host httpose

Bridge mode, requires changing of listening address

docker run --rm -it -p 2048:2048 httpose -a "0.0.0.0:2048"

Secret by env var (not recommended because docker inspect can see the secret)

docker run -e HTTPOSE_SECRET=xxx --rm -it --net host httpose

Secret by file

docker run -v "pwd/xxx:/xxx" --rm -it --net host httpose -f "/xxx"

Help details

docker run --rm -it httpose -h ```
