`hci secret echo`

hci secret echo [OPTIONS]

Assemble a secret and print it to stdout, ready for inclusion as a value in the secrets.json dict.

The value will be exposed in the process list for the command’s short duration. Use --json-env or --json-file on systems that log process information and on multi-user systems.

Parse the JSON argument as JSON and add it at the specified OBJECT_PATH. For example, the options

--json tls.versions '["1.3"]' --json . '{"trustOnFirstUse": false}'

will add a secret with the data object:

{
  "tls": {
    "versions": [
      "1.3"

}

Enter value for username:
[user enters asdf]
Enter value for password:
[user enters jkl]

producing a secret with

{
  "kind": "Secret",
