Dear Hamilton Community, are there possibilities to savely handle login credentials? I need to fetch files from a server that needs login details. I tried getpass.getpass() to write my password to the hamilton config. Later the password showed up in a log file. That is of course not an option for production. Maybe this is out of scope of hamilton and good solutions exit that i am not aware of. Again, any hints are appreciated

@Richard Schulz which log file are you referring to? The Hamilton UI? or? If you are passing in a string, for example, to not “expose it”. You’d want to wrap it in a simple object. That way if someone prints/logs it, it wont be shown.

class MySecret():
  
   def __init__(self, value):
      self.value = value

   def __repr__(self):
      return "[MySecret=******]"

m = MySecret(getpass.getpass())

db_client = db_credentials(..., m.value)

That is an option to start with. I am talking about the stdout from a local execution. I havent looked into the UI yet.

🤔 hmm I don’t recall us having a log statement that prints config by default.
