Struct SecretDetector 

pub struct SecretDetector {
    min_secret_length: usize,
}

Detector for secrets in content.

Fields

min_secret_length: usize

Minimum length for generic secret values.

Implementations

impl SecretDetector

pub const fn new() -> Self

Creates a new secret detector.

pub const fn with_min_length(self, length: usize) -> Self

Sets the minimum secret length for generic patterns.

pub fn contains_secrets(&self, content: &str) -> bool

Checks if content contains any secrets.

pub fn detect(&self, content: &str) -> Vec<SecretMatch>

Returns all detected secret matches.

fn collect_pattern_matches( &self, pattern: SecretPattern, content: &str, matches: &mut Vec<SecretMatch>, )

Collects matches for a single pattern into the result vector.

fn process_match( &self, pattern: &SecretPattern, m: &Match<'_>, ) -> Option<SecretMatch>

Processes a single regex match and returns a SecretMatch if it should be included.

fn deduplicate_overlapping(sorted_matches: Vec<SecretMatch>) -> Vec<SecretMatch>

Removes overlapping matches, keeping the first occurrence.

pub fn detect_types(&self, content: &str) -> Vec<String>

Returns the types of secrets detected.

pub fn count(&self, content: &str) -> usize

Returns the count of secrets detected.

fn is_placeholder(value: &str) -> bool

Checks if a matched value is a common placeholder (false positive).

This reduces false positives for generic API key and bearer token patterns.

Trait Implementations

impl Default for SecretDetector

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
