Vault is a tool for securely storing and accessing secrets. You can read more about Vault here. Vault comes as a single binary which you can download here.
Now start Vault in dev mode using the following command:

Open a new terminal window and set the VAULT_ADDR environment variable.
$ export VAULT_ADDR='http://127.0.0.1:8200′
NOTE: The Vault dev mode is only for development purpose and is not meant for production usage.
We can write secrets to Vault using vault write secret/somename key1=value1 key2=value2.
We can also put all our secrets in a JSON file and write from the file as well. Let us create a JSON file with MySQL database credentials and write to Vault.
