How to use secret keys with pipelines?

Moe Han

Hello,

In my repo, I have a `keys.py` file which I do not commit to Bitbucket. Inside that, I have AWS_SECRET and etc.

Then I do like `keys.AWS_SECRET` to access those keys.

How do I do that so that I can still test using pipelines without changing much to my codebase?

 

Thanks.

Hi Moe,

You can use a secured environment variable for to achieve this. 

Variables in pipelines - Atlassian Documentation

The variable value will be masked from all log output if you mark it as a "secured" variable on creation. 

By the sounds of it, the only thing you will have to change is that you read in these values as an environment variable, instead of from a file. 

Thanks.
