Adding support for GCP Secrets Manager
dooman87 opened this issue · 2 comments
Hi there,
Just wondering if it's a good idea to add gcp_secretsmanager function to HCL templates the same way aws_secretsmanager exists now.
If that's something Packer users could benefit from - I'm happy to make changes and raise a PR.
I think it is a good idea, but I'd recommend holding off for a bit before adding it -- we're currently reworking the way the aws secretsmanager works to follow a "data source" pattern like Terraform uses for some of its input. Once that work has been ironed out, adding a secrets manager for google compute and other clouds will be a lot simpler.
Hello there, I'm re-opening this issue over in https://github.com/hashicorp/packer-plugin-googlecompute . This should probably be implemented in the form of a new secrets manager datasource
