maven - How can I use a secure file in a CircleCI build? -

i trying build project on circleci needs access secure file. cannot utilize environment variable, must in form of file. in case maven settings.xml file, there other utilize cases. can do?

there quite few solutions problem:

file environment variable

if contents of file short (just password example), can store entire file environment variable, , add together line circle.yaml build file:

echo $secure_file > mysecurefile

variable substitution

if contents of file large, little portion of file secure, can store file in code repository, , utilize sed replace fixed string environment variable, this:

sed -e s/secure_password/${secure_password}/g mysecurefile.tmpl > mysecurefile

encrypt file

you can encrypt config file , check source repository, store decryption key environment variable. decrypt during build process.

maven settings.xml special case

for special case of maven settings.xml files, can utilize environment variables in settings.xml, can this:

store settings.xml in conf/settings.xml replace secure text this: ${env.my_secure_text} set my_secure_text in circle ci configuration in circle.yaml, add together '-s conf/settings.xml' maven build commands.
