Add support for random secret generation #52

Closed rubendg closed 3 years ago

rubendg commented 3 years ago

Adds support for random secret generation. The use case for this is e.g. generating the input key for a symmetric encryption cipher like AES.

Hi Ruben, it feels a bit like Random should be its own custom resource type, like RSAKey etc.

rubendg commented 3 years ago

I'll rework it to a distinct resource type 👍

mvanholsteijn commented 3 years ago

Great! May I recommend to look at the RSAkey provider for inspiration.

@mvanholsteijn I've reworked it a bit, can you have another look?

mvanholsteijn commented 3 years ago

@rubendg thank you for your contribution! Released as version 1.4.4.
