NAME

Sys::Virt::Secret - Represent & manage a libvirt secret

DESCRIPTION

The "Sys::Virt::Secret" module represents a secret managed by the virtual machine monitor.

METHODS

my $uuid = $sec->get_uuid(): Returns a 16 byte long string containing the raw globally unique identifier (UUID) for the secret.
my $uuid = $sec->get_uuid_string(): Returns a printable string representation of the raw UUID, in the format 'XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX'.
my $type = $sec->get_usage_type(): Returns the usage type of this secret. The usage type determines the format of the unique identifier for this secret.
my $id = $sec->get_usage_id(): Returns the identifier of the object with which the secret is to be used. For secrets with a usage type of volume, the identifier is the fully qualfied path.
my $xml = $sec->get_xml_description(): Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the secret's configuration
$sec->undefine(): Remove the configuration associated with a secret previously defined with the "define_secret" method in Sys::Virt.
$bytes = $sec->get_value(): Returns the raw bytes for the value of this secret, or undef if there is no value stored with the secret.
$sec->set_value($bytes): Sets the value for the secret to be $bytes.

CONSTANTS

This section documents constants that are used with various APIs described above

SECRET USAGE TYPE

The following constants refer to the different usage types

Sys::Virt::Secret::USAGE_TYPE_NONE: The constant for secrets which are not assigned for use with a particular object
