redacted-compiler-plugin

A multiplatform Kotlin compiler plugin that generates redacted toString() implementations.

Inspired by the auto-value-redacted extension for AutoValue.

Usage

Include the gradle plugin in your project, define a @Redacted annotation, and apply it to any properties that you wish to redact.

@Retention(SOURCE)
@Target(PROPERTY)
annotation class Redacted

data class User(val name: String, @Redacted val phoneNumber: String)

When you call toString() any @Redacted properties are hidden:

User(name=Bob, phoneNumber=██)

If your annotation is applied to the class, then toString() will emit a single replacement string:

@Retention(SOURCE)
@Target(CLASS)
annotation class Redacted

@Redacted
data class SensitiveData(val ssn: String, val birthday: String)

SensitiveData(██)

Installation

Apply the gradle plugin.

plugins {
  id("dev.zacsweers.redacted") version <version>
}

And that's it! The default configuration will add the multiplatform -annotations artifact (which has a @Redacted annotation you can use) and wire it all automatically. Just annotate what you want to redact.

You can configure custom behavior with properties on the redacted extension.

redacted {
  // Define a custom annotation. The -annotations artifact won't be automatically added to
  // dependencies if you define your own!
  // Note that this must be in the format of a string where packages are delimited by '/' and
  // classes by '.', e.g. "kotlin/Map.Entry"
  redactedAnnotation = "dev/zacsweers/redacted/annotations/Redacted" // Default

  // Define whether or not this is enabled. Useful if you want to gate this behind a dynamic
  // build configuration.
  enabled = true // Default

  // Define a custom replacement string for redactions.
  replacementString = "██" // Default
}

Snapshots of the development version are available in Sonatype's snapshots repository.

Supported platforms

The compiler plugin itself supports all multiplatform project types. The first-party annotations artifact is also multiplatform and supports all common JVM, JS, and native targets.

Caveats

• Kotlin compiler plugins are not a stable API! Compiled outputs from this plugin should be stable, but usage in newer versions of kotlinc are not guaranteed to be stable.
• IDE support is not currently possible. See #8.
