Tomcat-vault

Tomcat-vault is a PicketLink vault extension for Apache Tomcat. It allows you to "hide" paswords from Tomcat configuration files.

How to use it ?

Refer to the INSTALL file for installation and usage instructions.

How does it work ?

At start up, the Tomcat digester module parses configuration files and triggers a PropertySource implementation when finding a ${parameter}.

The PropertySource implementation then replaces the ${parameter} with the value of the corresponding attribut in the vault keystore.
