Cross.PepperVault

A set of .NET libraries for configurable loading of pepper values (secret strings used to harden password hashes and similar use cases), with support for multiple versions, a TTL cache, reload, and FluentValidation of options at startup. The core defines the IPepperVaultProvider contract and shared infrastructure; data sources live in separate NuGet packages.

Features

  • Pepper versions — version dictionary, active current version, rotation without application downtime.
  • Cache and TTL — providers built on PepperProviderBase cache loads and refresh on timeout and when options change via IOptionsMonitor.
  • Configuration — Pepper section, binding via AddPepperOptions, ValidateOnStart(), and composite FluentValidation validators.
  • Providers — environment, file, Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, GCP Secret Manager, HashiCorp Vault, and more; reference only what you need.
  • Extensibility — plug in your own source: inherit PepperProviderBase and register IPepperVaultProvider in DI.

Target frameworks

All projects target netstandard2.1 and net6.0 through net10.0 (see .csproj).

Packages

Per-package NuGet download and latest-version badges. Issues: the core package row shows the repo-wide open-issue count; each provider row shows the count for a GitHub search scoped to this repository and the full NuGet package id (there are no per-package labels in this repo).

Package Downloads NuGet latest Issues Notes
Cross.PepperVault NuGet NuGet issues Core: options, validation, IPepperVaultProvider, PepperProviderBase.
Cross.PepperVault.Env NuGet NuGet issues Pepper from configuration (Pepper:ProviderOptions: current version and dictionary).
Cross.PepperVault.EnvJson NuGet NuGet issues JSON from an environment variable.
Cross.PepperVault.FileJson NuGet NuGet issues JSON from a file.
Cross.PepperVault.AzureKvJson NuGet NuGet issues Azure Key Vault secret whose payload is versioned JSON.
Cross.PepperVault.AzureKvVersioned NuGet NuGet issues Multiple secret versions in Key Vault via tags.
Cross.PepperVault.AwsSecretsJson NuGet NuGet issues AWS Secrets Manager secret as JSON.
Cross.PepperVault.GcpSecretManagerJson NuGet NuGet issues Google Cloud Secret Manager.
Cross.PepperVault.HcvKv2Json NuGet NuGet issues HashiCorp Vault KV v2 via VaultSharp.

Target frameworks: libraries target netstandard2.1 and .NET 6 through .NET 10. Keep Cross.PepperVault and your provider packages on compatible NuGet versions (same release line); pin versions in production.

# Package Manager Console (Visual Studio) — install core + any providers you need
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.Env
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.EnvJson
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.FileJson
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.AzureKvJson
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.AzureKvVersioned
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.AwsSecretsJson
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.GcpSecretManagerJson
Install-Package Cross.PepperVault.HcvKv2Json

Then register AddPepperOptions (with your provider options and validator types) and IPepperVaultProvider in DI — see Quick start below.

Quick start

  1. Add NuGet packages (example: core + Env):
dotnet add package Cross.PepperVault
dotnet add package Cross.PepperVault.Env
  1. Register options and the provider:
services.AddPepperOptions<EnvProviderOptions, EnvProviderOptionsValidator>(configuration);
services.AddSingleton<IPepperVaultProvider, EnvPepperProvider>();
  1. Sample configuration for Env:
{
  "Pepper": {
    "Provider": "Env",
    "Ttl": "00:10:00",
    "ProviderOptions": {
      "Current": 1,
      "Peppers": {
        "1": "your-secret-pepper-v1",
        "2": "your-secret-pepper-v2"
      }
    }
  }
}

Provider names and ProviderOptions shape depend on the package you choose.

Build

dotnet build Cross.PepperVault.slnx -c Release

Packaging: config.nuspec in each project directory (after a Release build).

Unit tests

Tests follow the Given_When_Then naming convention:

  • Given — context / preconditions.
  • When — the action under test.
  • Then — the expected outcome.

Example: Given_ExistingUser_When_RequestCode_Then_SendsCodeAndReturnsLastCode.

Tests live in the Cross.PepperVault.Tests project (Options, Providers, Extensions, and related folders).
