HCP Vault Secrets is a centralized SaaS secrets lifecycle management solution. This repository showcases the various ways you can store and fetch secrets securely with your application.

We will use Stripe Checkout's sample application to showcase it!

2. Run the server

go run server.go

3. Go to http://localhost:4242/checkout.html

1. Ensure you have created an account with Stripe
2. You will need to create a sample product & price in the Stripe Dashboard - https://support.stripe.com/questions/how-to-create-products-and-prices

1. Sign up for HCP at cloud.hashicorp.com

2. Create an app "payments-api" in HCP Vault Secrets

3. Create a secret "STRIPE_SECRET_TEST_KEY" with the test Stripe Secret Key.
