Create Extension:

Usage

omni_credentials: Application credential management

The omni_credentials extension provides secure, encrypted credential storage with access control. It is a templated extension.

Setup

SELECT omni_credentials.instantiate(
    schema  => 'omni_credentials',
    env_var => 'OMNI_CREDENTIALS_MASTER_PASSWORD'
);

Credentials View

The primary interface is the credentials view:

Query and update the view directly; changes propagate automatically. Row-Level Security ensures only roles with grants on the principal can access credentials.

File Store (Development)

SELECT omni_credentials.instantiate_file_store(filename, schema);
-- Reload credentials from file:
SELECT credential_file_store_reload(filename);

Imports existing file records into the encrypted store and exports missing credentials from the table to the file. Auto-updates the file on credential changes.
