Make ansible vault files greppable

ansible_vault_grep.sh

### Ansible vault grepping
export VAULTS_LIST_FILE='.vaults.txt'

    for i in `find . -type f`

       if head -1 "$i" | grep -q '$ANSIBLE_VAULT'; then
           echo "Found vault $i"
           echo "$i" >> $VAULTS_LIST_FILE
       fi

vaultgrep()
{
    [ -z "$1" ] && echo "# ERROR: Need a search string!" && return 1
    searchfor="$1"
    if [ -z "$2" ]; then
        [ -n "$VAULTSCANBASE" ] && pushd "$VAULSCANBASE"
        [ -f "$VAULTS_LIST_FILE" ] || vaultscan
        while read -r vaultfile
        do
            _vaultgrep "$searchfor" "$vaultfile"

If you don't have a naming convention, but all your vaults are in git, this is a streamlined version that doesn't need the vaultscan() anymore

_vaultgrep(){

    _searchfor="$1"
    _vaultfile="$2"

    OUTPUT=$(ansible-vault view "$_vaultfile" 2>&1 | grep -v CryptographyDeprecationWarning | grep "$_searchfor")

    if [ -n "$OUTPUT" ]; then
        echo
        echo "$_vaultfile:$OUTPUT"
    else
        echo -n '.'
    fi
}
vaultgrep()
{
    [ -z "$1" ] && echo "# ERROR: Need a search string!" && return 1
    searchfor="$1"
    if [ -z "$2" ]; then
        #while read -r vaultfile
        for vaultfile in $(git grep -H '$ANSIBLE_VAULT' * | cut -f1 -d ':')
        do
            _vaultgrep "$searchfor" "$vaultfile"
        done
    else
        vaultfile="$2"
        _vaultgrep "$searchfor" "$vaultfile"
    fi
}
