  • Decrypt Vault files with and without Vault id.
  • Decrypted files can be used like normal files with variables - supports navigation, code completion, inspection
  • Optional persistent storage of the password in the IntelliJ password safe for each Vault id. Alternatively, the password is only kept in memory.
  • Encrypt new files with/without Vault id.
  • Support for IntelliJ’s “Auto-Save” feature - OrchidE encrypts Vault files when IntelliJ saves them. Passwords (within Ansible files) are never stored in plain text - even if they are visible in the editor.
    Explicit encryption is not necessary.
  • Supports comparison of Vault files with VCS.
