Hi @camspilly

I think this is something we would gladly accept a Pull Request for. Thanks!

[camspilly]

No problem! At my workplace we use a variety of these tools, including Mongo, Zookeeper, Kafka, Rabbit, Redshift and MySQL, and we plan on adding Vault to that list.

[camspilly]

@sethvargo do you mean you would make a pull request, or an outside contributor would?

[sethvargo]

Hi @camspilly

I mean we would likely rely on the community for this functionality since we do not use MongoDB internally :smile:

[camspilly]

Sweet. Okay. How can I start contributing? Fork and then pull req?

@camspilly yup! :smile:

No promises, but I'm taking a stab at implementing a secret backend for MongoDB. I think it's coming together nicely. I'll submit a pull request when I think it's ready for review.

[mhurne]

It works, but there's an unfortunate restriction in role assignment due to https://github.com/go-mgo/mgo/issues/236 and some boilerplate due to https://github.com/go-mgo/mgo/issues/84 that I'd like to clean up.

[mhurne]

I am still working on this... :-)

[mhurne]

I believe this issue can be closed now, unless this issue is about a storage backend rather than a secret backend.

Yep!
