Very cool! I was actually looking for something like this to personalize demos on our platform. Will try it out!

Just start helping friends around you with their problems (at work). At some point you will bump into a problem that you find interesting and has a potential market.

Interesting, going to try this. Now I am manually styling my demos, but this would make it much easier!

Hi! I am Ruud, an engineer at Doppler. Good question! We made sure that the passwords in the URL are always stripped out when sending anything to Bugsnag. This way, we (or Bugsnag) never have enough information to decrypt the encrypted secrets. However you make a good point, we initially added this to make sure the website is stable without errors, but at this point we can remove it (in progress at the moment).

We agree that Chamber is a great wrapper that makes working with Parameter Store much easier. However, we go a bit further where we have a visual dashboard that makes it much easier to manage secrets in different projects and environments as a whole. In Doppler you can easily edit them in a dashboard, inherit from other configs or reference other secrets. We also have permission control, audit logs, versioning and rollbacks. In your case, no more need to run `chamber write ENV_NAME SECRET_NAME SECRET_VALUE` to sync each secret to each application/region combination you have. We also have a direct integration with AWS so that you can automatically sync all secrets to Parameter Store, should you want to continue pulling from it in production.

Currently the customers that are using Kubernetes integrate with our Docker integrations. We do see that Kubernetes is a growing use case and are looking into a dedicated integration (possibly through a CRD as you mentioned). Send us an email at support@doppler.com, we would love to hear about your specific use case with Kubernetes.

We do support Terraform via our CLI, but the integration is still a bit more primitive than some of our other integrations that are more "one click". It is definitely on our radar and we are actively exploring a tighter integration with Terraform.

I am glad you asked! I built the Heroku integration at Doppler. We are doing a one way syncing as we believe Doppler should be the single source of truth for your secrets. However, we know that addons & attachments are an important part of Heroku, so we make sure we never overwrite any of the addons/attachments env vars. Those continue to live within Heroku as they wouldn't make much sense or be useful outside of that context.

Hi this is Ruud, founding engineer at Doppler. You can see us as a single source of truth where it is easy to manage your different projects and environments all in 1 place. GCP Secret Manager is great for production, but becomes harder to manage when you want to use it multiple environments with larger teams and in different projects/micro services.

Really cool! I can’t wait to start playing with it.

Can two people collaborate on the same project at the same time?

We use Doppler for our encryption keys, great way to easily store dev / staging / production keys in a secure and obfuscated way

Great idea for still having a custom domain without having to pay for premium features on website builders
