        Overview
        --------
        
        The **easy-server** package is a Python library for securely defining
        sensitive information for accessing servers (or services), such as logon
        credentials or API keys.
        
        The information for accessing the servers is divided into a general portion
        that is defined in an openly accessible *server file*, and
        a sensitive portion that is defined in an encrypted *vault file*.
        
        The vault file defines the secrets needed to access the servers, such as
        logon credentials or API keys. The vault file must be an "easy-vault" file and
        thus can be encrypted and decrypted using the ``easy-vault`` command provided
        by the `easy-vault <https://easy-vault.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ package.
        The "easy-vault" files remain encrypted in the file system while their content
        is used to access the servers.
        
        The server file defines general information about the servers, such
        as a short description, contact name, or a reminder which network to use for
        accessing them.
        
        The link between the server file and the vault file are user-defined
        nicknames for the servers. These nicknames can also used by users as a
        convenient way to identify servers in commands.
        
        The server files support the definition of server groups that
        also have a nickname.
        
        Typical use cases for the **easy-server** package are test programs
        running end-to-end tests against real servers, or command line clients that
        access servers or services.
        
        This provides a convenient, flexible and secure way how Python programs can
        retrieve the secrets needed for accessing servers or services, while protecting
        these secrets in a secure way.
