The YAML configuration approach to data encryption is highly readable, with the YAML format enabling a quick understanding of dependencies between encryption rules. Based on the YAML configuration, ShardingSphere automatically completes the creation of ShardingSphereDataSource objects, reducing unnecessary coding efforts for users.
rules:
- !ENCRYPT
  tables:
    <table-name> (+): # Encrypt table name
      columns:
        <column-name> (+): # Encrypt logic column name
          cipherColumn: # Cipher column name
          assistedQueryColumn (?):  # Assisted query column name
          encryptorName: # Encrypt algorithm name
      queryWithCipherColumn(?): # The current table whether query with cipher column for data encrypt. 
    
  # Encrypt algorithm configuration
  encryptors:
    <encrypt-algorithm-name> (+): # Encrypt algorithm name
      type: # Encrypt algorithm type
      props: # Encrypt algorithm properties
        # ...
  queryWithCipherColumn: # Whether query with cipher column for data encrypt. User you can use plaintext to query if have
Please refer to Built-in Encrypt Algorithm List for more details about type of algorithm.
The data encryption YAML configurations are as follows:
dataSources:
  unique_ds:
    dataSourceClassName: com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource
    driverClassName: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
    jdbcUrl: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/demo_ds?serverTimezone=UTC&useSSL=false&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8
    username: root
    password:
rules:
- !ENCRYPT
  tables:
    t_user:
      columns:
        username:
          cipherColumn: username
          encryptorName: name-encryptor
        pwd:
          cipherColumn: pwd
          assistedQueryColumn: assisted_query_pwd
          encryptorName: pwd_encryptor
  encryptors:
    name-encryptor:
      type: AES
      props:
        aes-key-value: 123456abc
    pwd_encryptor:
      type: assistedTest
Read the YAML configuration to create a data source according to the createDataSource method of YamlShardingSphereDataSourceFactory.
YamlShardingSphereDataSourceFactory.createDataSource(getFile());
