 # Secvault
 
-Restores Rails `secrets.yml` functionality for environment-specific secrets management using YAML files with ERB templating.
+Secvault restores the classic Rails `secrets.yml` functionality using simple, plain YAML files for environment-specific secrets management. Compatible with all modern Rails versions (7.1+, 7.2+, 8.0+).
 
-## Rails Version Support
+[![Gem Version](https://img.shields.io/gem/v/secvault.svg)](https://rubygems.org/gems/secvault)
 
-- **Rails 7.2+**: Automatic setup (drop-in replacement for removed functionality)
-- **Rails 7.1**: Manual setup required
-- **Rails 8.0+**: Full compatibility
+## Why Secvault?
+
+- **Drop-in replacement** for Rails 7.2+'s removed `secrets.yml` functionality
+- **Universal compatibility** across Rails 7.1+, 7.2+, and 8.0+
+- **ERB templating** support for environment variables
+- **Multi-file support** with deep merging capabilities
+- **Shared sections** for common configuration across environments
+- **Simple YAML** - no complex credential management required
 
 ## Installation
 
@@ -15,87 +20,437 @@ Restores Rails `secrets.yml` functionality for environment-specific secrets mana
 gem 'secvault'
 ```
 
+```bash
+bundle install
+```
+
 ## Quick Start
 
+### 1. Simple Setup
+
+Create `config/initializers/secvault.rb`:
+
+```ruby
+# The simplest setup - works across all Rails versions
+Secvault.start!
+```
+
 Create `config/secrets.yml`:
 
 ```yaml
+shared:
+  app_name: "My Rails App"
+  timeout: 30
+
 development:
+  secret_key_base: "dev_secret_key_here"
   api_key: "dev_key_123"
   database_url: "postgresql://localhost/myapp_dev"
+  debug: true
+
+test:
+  secret_key_base: "test_secret_key_here"
+  api_key: "test_key_123"
 
 production:
+  secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
   api_key: <%= ENV['API_KEY'] %>
   database_url: <%= ENV['DATABASE_URL'] %>
+  debug: false
 ```
 
-Access secrets in your app:
+### 2. Access Your Secrets
 
 ```ruby
+# In your Rails application
 Rails.application.secrets.api_key
+Rails.application.secrets.app_name
 Rails.application.secrets.database_url
+
+# Nested secrets work too
+Rails.application.secrets.database.host
+Rails.application.secrets.features.analytics
 ```
 
-## Multi-File Configuration
+## Setup Methods
+
+### Unified start! Method
 
-Load and merge multiple secrets files:
+Secvault now uses a single, simplified `start!` method for all use cases:
+
+```ruby
+# Simplest setup - loads config/secrets.yml with Rails integration
+Secvault.start!
+
+# Custom single file
+Secvault.start!(files: ['custom.yml'])
+
+# Multiple files with hot reload
+Secvault.start!(
+  files: ['config/secrets.yml', 'config/secrets.local.yml'],
+  hot_reload: true
+)
+
+# All available options
+Secvault.start!(
+  files: ['config/secrets.yml'],           # Default: ['config/secrets.yml']
+  integrate_with_rails: true,              # Default: true
+  set_secret_key_base: true,              # Default: true
+  hot_reload: true,                       # Default: true in development
+  logger: true                            # Default: true except production
+)
+```
+
+### Advanced Usage
+
+```ruby
+# Load without Rails integration (standalone mode)
+Secvault.start!(integrate_with_rails: false)
+# Access via: Secvault.secrets.your_key
+
+# Multi-file with hot reload for development
+Secvault.start!(
+  files: [
+    'config/secrets.yml',
+    'config/secrets.oauth.yml', 
+    'config/secrets.local.yml'   # Git-ignored local overrides
+  ],
+  hot_reload: true,
+  logger: true
+)
+```
+
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+### ERB Templating
+
+Secvault supports full ERB templating for dynamic configuration:
+
+```yaml
+production:
+  secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
+  api_key: <%= ENV['API_KEY'] %>
+  pool_size: <%= ENV.fetch('DB_POOL', '5').to_i %>
+  
+  # Complex expressions
+  features:
+    enabled: <%= ENV.fetch('FEATURES_ON', 'false') == 'true' %>
+    analytics: <%= Rails.env.production? && ENV['ANALYTICS'] != 'false' %>
+  
+  # Arrays and complex data structures
+  allowed_hosts: <%= ENV.fetch('ALLOWED_HOSTS', 'localhost').split(',') %>
+  
+  # Conditional values
+  redis_url: <%=
+    if ENV['REDIS_URL']
+      ENV['REDIS_URL']
+    else
+      "redis://localhost:6379/#{Rails.env}"
+    end
+  %>
+```
+
+### Shared Sections
+
+Define common secrets that apply to all environments:
+
+```yaml
+shared:
+  app_name: "MyApp"
+  version: "2.1.0"
+  timeout: 30
+  features:
+    analytics: true
+    
+development:
+  secret_key_base: "dev_secret"
+  features:
+    debug: true    # Merges with shared.features
+    
+production:
+  secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
+  features:
+    analytics: false  # Overrides shared.features.analytics
+```
+
+### Multi-File Configuration
+
+Organize your secrets across multiple files for better maintainability:
 
 ```ruby
-# config/initializers/secvault.rb
 Secvault.setup_multi_file!([
-  'config/secrets.yml',
-  'config/secrets.oauth.yml',
-  'config/secrets.local.yml'
+  'config/secrets.yml',           # Base secrets
+  'config/secrets.oauth.yml',     # OAuth provider settings
+  'config/secrets.database.yml',  # Database configurations
+  'config/secrets.local.yml'      # Local overrides (git-ignored)
 ])
 ```
 
-Files are merged in order with deep merge support for nested hashes.
+**File merging behavior:**
+- Files are processed in order
+- Later files override earlier ones
+- Deep merging for nested hashes
+- Shared sections are merged first, then environment-specific
+
+### Hot Reload (Development)
+
+Secvault provides hot reload functionality for development:
+
+```ruby
+# Enable hot reload when starting Secvault
+Secvault.start!(hot_reload: true)  # Default: true in development
+
+# Then reload secrets without restarting Rails
+reload_secrets!
+
+# Or via Rails.application
+Rails.application.reload_secrets!
+```
+
+Hot reload is automatically enabled in development mode and provides instant feedback when you change your secrets files.
 
 ## Manual API
 
+For advanced use cases, you can use the lower-level API:
+
 ```ruby
 # Parse specific files
-secrets = Rails::Secrets.parse(['config/secrets.yml'], env: Rails.env)
+secrets = Rails::Secrets.parse(['config/secrets.yml'], env: 'production')
+
+# Load from default location
+secrets = Rails::Secrets.load(env: 'development')
+
+# Check if Secvault is active
+Secvault.active?  # => true/false
+
+# Check if integrated with Rails
+Secvault.rails_integrated?  # => true/false
+
+# Access loaded secrets directly
+Secvault.secrets.api_key  # Available after Secvault.start!
+```
 
-# Load default config/secrets.yml
-secrets = Rails::Secrets.load(env: 'production')
+## Rails Version Compatibility
 
-# Check if active
-Secvault.active? # => true/false
+| Rails Version | Support Level | Notes |
+|---------------|---------------|-------|
+| **Rails 7.1+** | ✅ Full compatibility | Manual setup required |
+| **Rails 7.2+** | ✅ Drop-in replacement | Automatic setup works |
+| **Rails 8.0+** | ✅ Full compatibility | Future-proof |
+
+### Rails 7.2+ Notes
+Rails 7.2 removed the built-in `secrets.yml` functionality. Secvault provides a complete replacement with the same API.
+
+### Rails 7.1 Notes
+Rails 7.1 still has `secrets.yml` support but shows deprecation warnings. Secvault provides a consistent experience across Rails versions.
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Previous Secvault Versions
+
+**BREAKING CHANGE**: The API has been simplified. Update your initializers:
+
+```ruby
+# Old API (no longer supported):
+Secvault.setup!
+Secvault.setup_multi_file!(['file1.yml', 'file2.yml'])
+Secvault.integrate_with_rails!
+
+# New unified API:
+Secvault.start!                                     # Simple case
+Secvault.start!(files: ['file1.yml', 'file2.yml'])  # Multi-file case
+Secvault.start!(integrate_with_rails: false)        # Standalone mode
 ```
 
-## Rails 7.1 Integration
+### From Rails < 7.2 Built-in Secrets
+
+1. **Add Secvault to your Gemfile**:
+   ```ruby
+   gem 'secvault'
+   ```
+
+2. **Create initializer**:
+   ```ruby
+   # config/initializers/secvault.rb
+   Secvault.start!
+   ```
+
+3. **Your existing `config/secrets.yml` works as-is** - no changes needed!
+
+### From Rails Credentials
+
+1. **Extract your credentials to YAML**:
+   ```bash
+   # Export existing credentials
+   rails credentials:show > config/secrets.yml
+   ```
+
+2. **Format as environment-specific YAML**:
+   ```yaml
+   development:
+     secret_key_base: "your_dev_secret"
+     # ... other secrets
+   
+   production:
+     secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
+     # ... other secrets
+   ```
+
+3. **Set up Secvault**:
+   ```ruby
+   # config/initializers/secvault.rb
+   Secvault.start!
+   ```
+
+## Configuration Examples
 
-For Rails 7.1 with existing secrets functionality:
+### Basic Application
+
+```yaml
+# config/secrets.yml
+shared:
+  app_name: "MyApp"
+  
+development:
+  secret_key_base: "long_random_string_for_dev"
+  database_url: "postgresql://localhost/myapp_dev"
+  
+test:
+  secret_key_base: "long_random_string_for_test"
+  database_url: "postgresql://localhost/myapp_test"
+  
+production:
+  secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
+  database_url: <%= ENV['DATABASE_URL'] %>
+```
+
+### Multi-Service Application
 
 ```ruby
 # config/initializers/secvault.rb
-Secvault.setup_backward_compatibility_with_older_rails!
+Secvault.start!(
+  files: [
+    'config/secrets.yml',
+    'config/secrets.oauth.yml',
+    'config/secrets.external_apis.yml',
+    'config/secrets.local.yml'  # Git-ignored
+  ],
+  hot_reload: true
+)
 ```
 
-## ERB Templating
+```yaml
+# config/secrets.yml (base)
+shared:
+  app_name: "MyApp"
+  timeout: 30
+
+development:
+  secret_key_base: "dev_secret"
+  debug: true
 
-Supports full ERB templating for environment variables:
+production:
+  secret_key_base: <%= ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] %>
+  debug: false
+```
 
 ```yaml
+# config/secrets.oauth.yml
+shared:
+  oauth:
+    google:
+      scope: "email profile"
+
+development:
+  oauth:
+    google:
+      client_id: "dev_google_client_id"
+      client_secret: "dev_google_client_secret"
+
 production:
-  api_key: <%= ENV['API_KEY'] %>
-  pool_size: <%= ENV.fetch('DB_POOL', '5').to_i %>
-  features:
-    enabled: <%= ENV.fetch('FEATURES_ON', 'false') == 'true' %>
-  hosts: <%= ENV.fetch('ALLOWED_HOSTS', 'localhost').split(',') %>
+  oauth:
+    google:
+      client_id: <%= ENV['GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID'] %>
+      client_secret: <%= ENV['GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET'] %>
 ```
 
-## Development Tools
+## Troubleshooting
 
-Reload secrets in development:
+### Common Issues
 
+**1. "No secrets.yml file found"**
+```bash
+# Create the file
+mkdir -p config
+touch config/secrets.yml
+```
+
+**2. "undefined method `secrets' for Rails.application"**
 ```ruby
-# Available after setup_multi_file!
-reload_secrets!
-Rails.application.reload_secrets!
+# Make sure Secvault is set up in an initializer
+# config/initializers/secvault.rb
+Secvault.start!
+```
+
+**3. "Secrets not loading in tests"**
+```ruby
+# In your test helper or rails_helper.rb
+Secvault.start! if defined?(Secvault)
+```
+
+**4. "Environment variables not working"**
+```yaml
+# Make sure you're using ERB syntax
+production:
+  api_key: <%= ENV['API_KEY'] %>  # ✅ Correct
+  api_key: $API_KEY               # ❌ Wrong
 ```
 
+### Debug Mode
+
+```ruby
+# Enable detailed logging (development/test only)
+Secvault.start!(files: ['config/secrets.yml'], logger: true)
+
+# Check if Secvault is working
+Secvault.active?           # Should return true
+Secvault.rails_integrated? # Should return true
+Rails.application.secrets  # Should show your secrets
+```
