Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

This module integrates the [DETAIL Framework library for for working with encrypted environment variables](https://github.com/detailnet/dfw-varcrypt) with [Zend Framework 2](https://github.com/zendframework/zf2).

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

[Zend Framework 2 Skeleton Application](http://www.github.com/zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication) (or compatible architecture)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the module through [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) using the following steps:

1. `cd my/project/directory`
2. Create a `composer.json` file with following contents (or update your existing file accordingly):

    ```
    {
        "require": {
            "detailnet/dfw-varcrypt-module": "1.x-dev"
        }
    }
    ```
3. Install Composer via `curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php` (on Windows, download the [installer](http://getcomposer.org/installer) and execute it with PHP)
4. Run `php composer.phar self-update`
5. Run `php composer.phar install`
6. Open `configs/application.config.php` and add following key to your `modules`:

    ```
    'service_manager' => array(
        'delegators' => array(
            'ModuleManager' => array(
                // By attaching this delegator the module Detail\VarCrypt is loaded before
                // all other modules so that the encrypted environment variables can be
                // applied before the configs of the other modules are merged/applied.
                'Detail\VarCrypt\Factory\ModuleManager\ModuleManagerDelegatorFactory',
            ),
        ),
    ),
    ```
7. Copy `vendor/detailnet/dfw-varcrypt-module/config/detail_varcrypt.local.php.dist` into your application's `config/autoload` directory, rename it to `detail_varcrypt.local.php` and make the appropriate changes.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Save/encode config

[](#saveencode-config)

Before the module can be used, a config (simple string or JSON encoded string) needs to be encoded and provided as environment variable.

Here's an example for providing MongoDB credentials as a single environment variable:

1. Define credentials as JSON:

    ```
    {
      "server": "localhost",
      "user": "root",
      "password": "root",
      "port": 27017,
      "dbname": null,
      "options": []
    }
    ```
2. Make sure an encryption key is set in `detail_varcrypt.local.php`.
3. Encode JSON: `php public/index.php varcrypt encode-value {"server": ...}`
4. Save the output as environment variable (e.g. `MONGO`).
5. Test that the environment variable can be accessed (at least from the CLI): `php public/index.php varcrypt decode-variable MONGO`

### Apply/decode config

[](#applydecode-config)

The following steps are necessary, to use an encrypted/encoded environment variable in a ZF2 app.

1. Add the environment variable to the module's config (in `detail_varcrypt.local.php`):

    ```
    'detail_varcrypt' => array(
        'listeners' => array(
            'Detail\VarCrypt\Listener\MultiEncryptorListener' => array(
                'apply_variables' => array(
                    'mongo',
                ),
            ),
        ),
    ),
    ```
2. Access environment variables as you normally would:

    ```
    array(
        'doctrine' => array(
            'connection' => array(
                'odm_default' => array(
                    'server' => getenv('MONGO_SERVER') ?: 'localhost',
                    ...
                ),
            ),
        ),
    )
    ```
