credential-setup

Task

Standardize credential handling for the project at $1 (relative path under packages/<domain>/).

Standard Patterns

ESP-IDF Projects

Use credentials.h + credentials.h.example:

// credentials.h.example — Template for project credentials
// Copy to credentials.h and fill in your values:
//   cp credentials.h.example credentials.h

#ifndef CREDENTIALS_H
#define CREDENTIALS_H

// WiFi Configuration #define WIFI_SSID "your-wifi-ssid" #define WIFI_PASSWORD "your-wifi-password"

// API Keys (uncomment and fill in as needed) // #define API_KEY "your-api-key"

#endif // CREDENTIALS_H

### ESPHome Projects

Use `secrets.yaml` + `secrets.yaml.example`:

```yaml
# secrets.yaml.example — Template for project secrets
# Copy to secrets.yaml and fill in your values:
#   cp secrets.yaml.example secrets.yaml

wifi_ssid: "your-wifi-ssid"
wifi_password: "your-wifi-password"
api_encryption_key: "generate-with-esphome"
ota_password: "your-ota-password"

Process

1. Detect project type (ESP-IDF or ESPHome) by checking for CMakeLists.txt vs .yaml config
2. Scan source for credential usage:
   • #include "credentials.h" or #include "secrets.h" or #include "wifi_config.h"
   • WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD, API_KEY, etc.
3. Check current state:
   • Does a .example file exist?
   • Is the credential file gitignored?
   • Are pre-commit hooks protecting it?
4. Fix non-conforming patterns:
   • wifi_config.h / wifi_config_example.h → rename to credentials.h / credentials.h.example
   • secrets.h / secrets.h.example → rename to credentials.h / credentials.h.example
   • Update #include statements in source to match
5. Ensure protection:
   • Verify .gitignore covers credentials.h and secrets.yaml
   • Verify root .pre-commit-config.yaml blocks credential files

Migration Table

Current File	Standard Name	Action
wifi_config.h	credentials.h	Rename, update includes
wifi_config_example.h	credentials.h.example	Rename
secrets.h	credentials.h	Rename, update includes
secrets.h.example	credentials.h.example	Rename
credentials.h.template	credentials.h.example	Rename
credentials.h.example	(already correct)	No action

Output

Report what was found and what was changed:

• Current credential pattern detected
• Files renamed/created
• .gitignore status
• Pre-commit protection status
• Source files updated (if includes were changed)
