A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

/dev

I have an API service that needs to write to a smart contract. Where do I store the private key? AWS KMS looks like cancer

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

Building /bright-moments - minting onchain art IRL | /purple #15 | FID 129 #magikarp | getting paid to post with @ampsfun

in the limit I will commit it. not if, when

kms :(
didn't turnkey have a product for this too? isn't this what you need? https://www.turnkey.com/product#onchain-automation

aws kms is good too

sops encrypt secrets in a yaml file and check them into repo

Assuming you want to use AWS services, I would recommend you to use AWS Secrets Manager to store either the private key as a byte encoded string or the seed phrase.

I do not believe KMS supports the same kind of key and algorithms as the ones used by most blockchains 😉

Will it be exposed to users from some FE client?

If no, just toss it in a .env? lol?
