[META] Looking for maintainer help

[jmgilman]

Hi all,

I apologize for being slow to respond to issues/PRs in this repository. I picked up a new day job at the beginning of the year that has been very demanding on my time, and unfortunately, it's caused some projects to slip. I am looking for one or two individuals who are actively using this project and would be interested in helping maintain it. If you're interested in helping out, please reply directly to this issue.

Thanks!

Hey @jmgilman.
This month I got my CS degree and searching for a project to spend some of my free time.
I find this Project really useful for vault and want to help to maintain it.

[jmgilman]

Sounds great. Thanks for your willingness to step in and support. I'll add you as a maintainer.

We use your library in my team, I have a fork with some updates. We've added 2 new features: a TLS client and certificate authentication. Maybe me and my team can help you.
You can be sure that if we find bugs we will want to fix it fast 😂

Howdy @Haennetz @jmgilman, I can also help triage, review and merge PRs, though my time will probably be too limited to actively implement new modules. Let me know if I can help :)

@jmgilman could you please consider adding as maintainers the other persons that proposed to help?

Hi there, what's the current state of this project ?

I need a library to work with vault in rust but there is some missing features like export of "public-key" in the transit https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/api-docs/secret/transit#export-key module support for custom certificates etc...

I first tried to implement it directly and do a MR but I ran into some issue:

• The vault version used to test the crate (1.10.3 from back in may 2022) is too old and doesn't support public-key export endpoint
• The crate used to start docker container dockertest-server in order to test vault doesn't seams well maintained and has a fixed vault image to vault which has been deprecated in favor of hashicorp/vault see Add support for Vault issuers #69 and Add support for Vault issuers #68
• I did what was required locally to change the image and bump to the latest release 1.18.0 but this breaks the Kubernetes authentication tests due changes in how k8s works and vault following how k8s works

Is there any will to fix all of this ? Can I help ?

@jmgilman can you have a look at the MR in the https://github.com/jmgilman/dockertest-server repo ?

Hi @Zoruk,

I'm happy to onboard more maintainers. My current status at work in a startup has taken all of my time and I haven't had the ability to maintain this repo as much. However, @stormshield-gt has been managing things over the past few months.

If you're interested in contributing, I'd be happy to onboard you.

[Zoruk]

Sure that would be nice, thanks you !

Can you also give me access to the related repos that I might need to update too like dockertest-server and rustify ?

Thanks a lot for your quick reply.

[stormshield-gt]

Hello @jmgilman,

We discussed with my team at my company today and we are happy to announce that I will be allocated some time to co-maintain this crate.
It will depend on my internal workload, but we definitely want to help here.

Could you please give me maintainers right when you have some time?

[jmgilman]

Awesome! Invite sent.

[Zoruk]

Nice @jmgilman thanks,

Did you invite @stormshield-gt to the other related repo list dockertest-server also ?

Also as soon as the required PR in dockertest-server is merged and released I will post some MR here to fix all the described Issues and add support for one or two other things

[stormshield-gt]

The next issue I want to tackle is this one so we won't depend on dockertest-server anymore

[jmgilman]

@stormshield-gt I've also sent invites for jmgilman/dockertest-sever and jmgilman/rustify as they are both dependencies.
