# ⚠️ Bank-Vaults is being migrated ⚠️

As we [announced](https://github.com/banzaicloud/bank-vaults/discussions/1878) a couple weeks ago, Bank-Vaults is being migrated to a [new GitHub organization](https://github.com/bank-vaults).

New contributions may not be accepted in this repository depending on the state of the migration. We suggest that you open an issue before sending pull requests.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!

*Bank Vaults is a thick, tricky, shifty right with a fast and intense tube for experienced surfers only, located on Mentawai.
Think heavy steel doors, secret unlocking combinations and burly guards with smack-down attitude. Watch out for clean-up sets.*

*Bank-Vaults is an umbrella project which provides various tools for Vault to make using and operating Hashicorp Vault easier. It's a wrapper for the official Vault client with automatic token renewal and built-in Kubernetes support, dynamic database credential provider for Golang `database/sql` based clients. It has a CLI tool to automatically initialize, unseal, and configure Vault. It also provides a Kubernetes operator for provisioning, and a mutating webhook for injecting secrets.*
Bank-Vaults is an umbrella project which provides various tools for Cloud Native secret management, including:

---
- Bank-Vaults CLI to make configuring Hashicorp Vault easier
- [Vault operator](https://github.com/bank-vaults/vault-operator/) to make operating Hashicorp Vault on top of Kubernetes easier
- [Vault secrets webhook](https://github.com/bank-vaults/vault-secrets-webhook) to inject secrets directly into Kubernetes pods
- [Vault SDK](https://github.com/bank-vaults/vault-sdk) to make working with Vault easier in Go
- and others

**Bank-Vaults** is a core building block of the **[Banzai Cloud Pipeline](https://github.com/banzaicloud/pipeline)** platform. Some of the usage patterns are highlighted through these blog posts:

We use Vault across our large Kubernetes deployments and all the projects were `reinventing` the wheel. We have externalized all the codebase into this project and removed all the [Pipeline](https://github.com/banzaicloud/pipeline) and [Hollowtrees](https://github.com/banzaicloud/hollowtrees) dependencies thus this project can be used independently as a CLI tool to manage Vault, a Golang library to build upon (OAuth2 tokens, K8s auth, Vault operator, dynamic secrets, cloud credential storage, etc), Helm chart for a HA cluster, operator, mutating webhook and a collection of scripts to support some advanced features (dynamic SSH, etc).

>We take bank-vaults' security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in bank-vaults, please contact us at [email protected].
Bank-Vaults is a core part of [Banzai Cloud Pipeline](https://github.com/banzaicloud/pipeline), a Cloud Native application and devops platform that natively supports multi- and hybrid-cloud deployments.

## Supported Kubernetes and Vault versions

This project aims to support the [latest supported Vault image versions](https://hub.docker.com/_/vault), and three Kubernetes minor versions excluding the latest one.

## Installing

You usually don't need to use the CLI directly, rather you should install the charts and create Vault instances with the operator and use the webhook inside Kubernetes to mutate Kubernetes resources.

To grab the `bank-vaults` and `vault-env` CLI binaries go to the [releases](https://github.com/banzaicloud/bank-vaults/releases) page and download them.
