README

⚡ b64

A fast, experimental tool designed to quickly peek into base64-encoded kubernetes secrets manifests.

Kubernetes keeps secrets obfuscated via base64 by default. Instead of stacking messy terminal pipes (echo "..." | base64 -d), b64 aims to streamline that workflow in a single click or command.

⚠️ Disclaimer: This is a highly experimental utility. Always handle production secrets with care!

✨ Features

• Instant Decoding: Quickly reveal what is hiding behind your Kubernetes data fields.
• Clean Manifest Parsing: Built with developers in mind to make reading encoded configs effortless.
• Zero Dependencies: Pure Go implementation, lightweight, and blazing fast.

💡 Quick Example

When dealing with a typical Kubernetes Secret:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: database-credentials
type: Opaque
data:
  password: dGhlLXNlY3JldC1wYXNzd29yZA==

Feed it or paste it into b64 to immediately get:

🔑 password ➡️ the-secret-password

🛠️ Roadmap / Experimental Ideas

As this tool evolves, the goal is to expand its utilities:

• Direct file pipe integration (kubectl get secret -o yaml | b64)
• Auto-detection of multi-key secrets
