Use JuJu application-secrets for MinIO credentials #167

Open kimwnasptd opened 5 months ago

kimwnasptd commented 5 months ago

Context

Right now the secret-key config value of MinIO has a "" value as default. This then means that MinIO will create a random big password and use this value for the secret-key https://github.com/canonical/minio-operator/blob/track/ckf-1.8/src/charm.py#L219-L234

Those values now are generated by the Charm and are handled as config options. We should move to using juju application-secrets for storing these secrets, to make their handling more secure.

We propose that we currently go with application secrets (and not user secrets) since we would not expect users for now to need to update the credential values of MinIO.

What needs to get done

  1. Convert the secret-key and access-key from config options to application secrets
  2. Keep the logic of autogenerating the values, so MinIO can generate secure ones

For this work though we might need to keep the effort of being compliant with s3-interface https://github.com/canonical/minio-operator/issues/160

Definition of Done

  1. Secrets are used for the sensitive values of MinIO
  2. Spike for exploring if the Charm should generate values by default (we believe yes, but let's get feedback from DP team)
