Pydantic2-Settings-Vault is a simple extension of Pydantic Settings to collect secrets from HashiCorp Vault OpenSource (OSS) and Enterprise

Demonstration:

from functools import lru_cache
from threading import Lock
from typing import Tuple, Type
from pydantic import Field, SecretStr
from pydantic_settings import (
    BaseSettings,
    PydanticBaseSettingsSource,
)
from pydantic2_settings_vault import VaultConfigSettingsSource

class AppSettings(BaseSettings):

    MY_SECRET: SecretStr = Field(
        ...,
        json_schema_extra={
            "vault_secret_path": "secret/data/test",
            "vault_secret_key": "FOO",  # pragma: allowlist secret
        },
    )
    
    @classmethod
    def settings_customise_sources(
        cls,
        settings_cls: Type[BaseSettings],
        init_settings: PydanticBaseSettingsSource,
        env_settings: PydanticBaseSettingsSource,
        dotenv_settings: PydanticBaseSettingsSource,
        file_secret_settings: PydanticBaseSettingsSource,
    ) -> Tuple[PydanticBaseSettingsSource, ...]:
        return (
            init_settings,
            env_settings,
            dotenv_settings,
            VaultConfigSettingsSource(settings_cls=settings_cls),
        )

# The connection to Vault is done via HTTPS with AppRole authentication
import os
os.environ['VAULT_URL'] = "<configure it>"
os.environ['VAULT_ROLE_ID'] = "<configure it>"
os.environ['VAULT_SECRET_ID'] = "<configure it>"

# Only with Enterprise edition
os.environ['VAULT_NAMESPACE'] = "<configure it>"

### Usage
app_settings_lock = Lock()

@lru_cache
def get_app_settings() -> AppSettings:
    with app_settings_lock:
        return AppSettings()  # type: ignore

Internal interactions:

sequenceDiagram
    participant A as Your Application
    participant B as BaseSettings
    participant V as Vault
    note over A,B: 1. Retrieve settings
    A->>B: get_app_settings()
    note over B: 2. Collect secrets paths
    B->>B: foreach fields, get the secret path and keep unique value
    note over B,V: 3. HTTPS Asynchronously fetch secrets by path from Vault
    B->>V: get_secrets(secrets/data/<A>)
    B->>V: get_secrets(secrets/data/<B>)
    note over V,B: 4. Vault returns secrets
    V->>B: return secrets for secrets/data/<A>
    V->>B: return secrets for secrets/data/<B>
    note over B: 5. Fill fields with secrets values
    B->>B: SECRET_ONE => secrets/data/<A>[SECRET_ONE] <br> SECRET_TWO => secrets/data/<A>[SECRET_TWO] <br> SECRET_THREE => secrets/data/<B>[SECRET_THREE]
    note over B,A: 6. Return settings
    B->>A: settings with variables and secrets
