# Phase 2: Crypto & Config Seed Loader
**Status:** ✅ Complete
**Parent plan:** [PLAN.md](./PLAN.md)
**Domain:** backend
## Objective
Implement AES-256 encryption for credential storage and the YAML seed config parser that imports into SQLite on first launch.
## Tasks
- [x] Task 1: Implement AES-256-GCM encrypt/decrypt functions using Go stdlib `crypto/aes` + `crypto/cipher`
- [x] Task 2: Key derivation from ENCRYPTION_KEY env var (SHA-256 hash to get 32 bytes)
- [x] Task 3: Define YAML config structs matching the seed format from PLAN.md
- [x] Task 4: Implement YAML parser — read and validate seed file
- [x] Task 5: Implement seed importer — checks if DB is empty, if so imports YAML into SQLite via store CRUD
- [x] Task 6: Encrypt credential fields (registry tokens, NPM password) during import
- [x] Task 7: Create `docker-watcher.example.yaml` with documented example config
- [x] Task 8: Wire seed import into `cmd/server/main.go` startup sequence
## Files to Modify/Create
- `internal/crypto/crypto.go` — AES-256-GCM encrypt/decrypt
- `internal/config/config.go` — YAML structs and parser
- `internal/config/seed.go` — seed import logic (YAML → SQLite)
- `docker-watcher.example.yaml` — example seed config
- `cmd/server/main.go` — add seed import to startup
## Acceptance Criteria
- Encrypt then decrypt round-trips correctly
- Different plaintexts produce different ciphertexts (random nonce)
- YAML parsing handles all fields from the seed format
- Seed import creates projects, stages, registries, and settings in SQLite
- Credentials are encrypted before storage
- Import is idempotent — skipped if DB already has data
## Notes
- ENCRYPTION_KEY is the only secret env var — everything else is encrypted in SQLite
- Use GCM mode for authenticated encryption (integrity + confidentiality)
- Seed import should be transactional — all or nothing
- The example YAML should have placeholder values, not real credentials
## Review Checklist
- [x] All tasks completed
- [x] Crypto uses secure practices (random nonce, GCM, no ECB)
- [x] No hardcoded keys or secrets
- [x] YAML parsing validates required fields
- [x] Import is transactional
## Handoff to Next Phase
- `crypto.Encrypt(key, plaintext)` and `crypto.Decrypt(key, ciphertextHex)` handle AES-256-GCM encryption; ciphertext is hex-encoded with prepended nonce
- `crypto.KeyFromEnv()` derives a `[32]byte` key from the `ENCRYPTION_KEY` env var via SHA-256
- `crypto.EncryptIfNotEmpty(key, value)` is a convenience wrapper that passes through empty strings unchanged
- `config.ImportSeed(db, seedPath)` is the single entry point for seed import — called from `main.go` at startup
- Import is idempotent: skipped if the DB already has projects or registries
- Import is transactional: all inserts happen within a single SQLite transaction (rollback on any failure)
- Registry `token` and settings `npm_password` are now stored encrypted in SQLite — later phases that read these fields must decrypt with `crypto.Decrypt(key, value)`
- `store.DB()` method was added to expose the underlying `*sql.DB` for transaction use
- Seed file path is configurable via `SEED_FILE` env var (default: `./docker-watcher.yaml`)
- YAML validation ensures: `global.domain` is required, every project needs `image`, project registry references must exist, stages need `tag_pattern`
- `go.sum` still does not exist — run `go mod tidy` when Go toolchain is available
