SecretEngine (kork-secrets 7.109.0 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractStorageSecretEngine, NoopSecretEngine
```
public interface SecretEngine
```
SecretEngines contain service specific functionality in order to decrypt EncryptedSecrets. Identifiers are used in order to identify which SecretEngine an EncryptedSecret refers to. SecretEngines are used by the SecretManager in order to decrypt a given secret.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description

`void`	`validate(EncryptedSecret encryptedSecret)`	In order for a secretEngine to decrypt an EncryptedSecret, it may require extra information (e.g.

- Method Detail
  - identifier
```
java.lang.String identifier()

```
    In order for a secretEngine to decrypt an EncryptedSecret, it may require extra information (e.g. decryptionKey, location, encryptionMethod, etc). This method takes an EncryptedSecret and validates it contains the required information the service needs for decryption. Parameter names should not contain ':'
    
    Parameters:
    
    encryptedSecret - The encrypted secret
    
    Throws:
    
    InvalidSecretFormatException - If the encrypted secret is malformed
  - encrypt
```
default EncryptedSecret encrypt(java.lang.String secretToEncrypt)
```
  - clearCache
```
void clearCache()
```
