在插件中添加 vault-rails gem 时遇到问题

我试图在插件中添加 vault-rails,以加密我添加的模型中包含的密钥,参考了以下示例:Plugin with custom gems - #4 by Falco

(Discourse 中是否已有某种方法可以实现这一点,而我尚未发现?我只看到了 encrypt 插件……)

如果我在 plugin.rb 中添加这一行,就会收到错误提示:Could not find 'rails' (>= 5.0) among 348 total gem(s)。但将相同的行添加到 Discourse 的 Gemfile 中则能正常工作。

gem "vault-rails", "0.7.0", { require: false }

你链接的帖子中提到:

你试过这样做吗?

Discourse 并不依赖 Rails gem,我们只导入所需的模块。你想要使用的这个 gem 依赖于完整的 Rails gem,因此你需要递归地添加 Discourse 尚未包含的每一个依赖项。

恐怕这会涉及大量内容,但至少它能明确告诉你还缺少哪些依赖。

哦,我完全没想到 rails 没有被加载。

整个依赖树!我明白了。

这看起来确实有很多东西。

我打算把像 DigitalOcean API 密钥和 SSH 密钥这样的信息存储在数据库中。您是否知道其他简单且安全的方法?我想我也可以直接调用 shell 并运行 vault 之类的工具,配合 exec 使用。不过这种情况不会经常发生。

也许可以只使用 vault gem,它仅依赖 aws-sigv4aws-eventstream

这里的“安全地”具体指什么?你的威胁模型(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threat_model)是什么?你是在试图防止拥有 Data Explorer 访问权限的管理员访问吗?如果是这样,使用一个简单的环境变量可能会更简单。

“安全”意味着安全程度足以让你愿意提供 Digital Ocean API 密钥和 Mailgun API 密钥,以便我的这个小插件创建一台 Droplet 并在其上安装 Discourse,同时生成一个用于执行升级等操作的 SSH 密钥。

我认为我唯一需要增加的防护措施是:即使有人窃取了数据库,他们也无法获得这些密钥。当然,如果他们攻破了服务器,那就另当别论了。

我想我可能需要寻找一种更轻量级的方式来加密这几个字段。

编辑:https://pawelurbanek.com/rails-secure-encrypt-decrypt 看起来足够简单,并且使用了 ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor,这似乎已经可用。
