db-external-command-auth

Use an external command to acquire database connection credentials.

Executes an external command and extracts database and username from its output. The command is executed in the project’s root directory, if that can be resolved.

The plugin will first attempt to extract the information from output from a Vault-like JSON with the following format:

{
  "data": {
    "username": "username",
    "password": "password"
  }
}  

Any extra fields are ignored.

If JSON parsing fails, the output is expected to be password and username separated by a newline:

password
username

The prefix username: is removed from the username, so the following also works:

password
Username: username
