Configure the Rails secret key. When you deploy a Rails app in the production environment, set the environment variable SECRETKEYBASE to a secret key that is used to protect user session data. This environment variable is read in the config/secrets.yml file. Generate a new secret key. Bundle exec rails secret Copy the generated secret key. We can generate new ones. Rails provides rake secret for just this purpose. The source code is here. The code simply requires SecureRandom and spits out a string. If you want to be really clever, you can pipe the string directly into your Vim buffer for the config file, with.! Check out rake -T secret inside a Rails root directory for more information. Rails secret will give you a pseudo-random key to use for your session secret. Rails time:zones:all lists all the timezones Rails knows about. 1.16 Custom Rake Tasks. Custom rake tasks have a.rake extension and are placed in Rails.root/lib/tasks. You can create these custom rake tasks with the rails generate. The release of Rails 5.1 added another file named secrets.yml.enc to allow for encrypting your secret credentials, but this caused some confusion. The combination of config/secrets.yml, config/secrets.yml.enc, and SECRETKEYBASE made it so it wasn’t clear where secrets should be stored and what the relevance of SECRETKEYBASE was 2.

Have you ever wondered about those secret keys found in config/secrets.yml of your Rails app? The comments generated in that file describe the keys as such:

‘Your secret key is used for verifying the integrity of signed cookies.’

Great… but what if they become compromised? Or we need to change them? We can generate new ones.

Rails 5 Generate Secret_key_base

If your master.key has been compromised, you might want to regenerate it.

No key regeneration feature at the moment.We have to do it manually.

1. Copy content of original credentials rails credentials:show somewhere temporarily.
2. Remove config/master.key and config/credentials.yml.enc
3. Run EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit in the terminal: This command will create a new master.key and credentials.yml.enc if they do not exist.
4. Paste the original credentials you copied (step 1) in the new credentials file (and save + quit vim)
5. Add and Commit the file config/credentials.yml.enc

Rails 5 Generate New Secret Key West

• Make sure config/master.key is listed in .gitignore and NOT tracked by git.
• The command EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit might not work if you require credential value in some file (initializers or database.yml).I had the problem with devise.rb. I just uncommented the line secret_key = .. just the time to run the command to regenerate the credentials file, and then commented the line out again.
• If you want to use Sublime to edit the credentials, you can replace the command EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit by EDITOR='/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl -w' rails credentials:edit
