ConfigMaps

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Tasks > Configure Pods and Containers > Configure a Pod to Use a ConfigMap

Create a configmap named config with values foo=lala,foo2=lolo

show

kubectl create configmap config --from-literal=foo=lala --from-literal=foo2=lolo

Display its values

show

kubectl get cm config -o yaml
# or
kubectl describe cm config

Create and display a configmap from a file

Create the file with

echo -e "foo3=lili\nfoo4=lele" > config.txt
show

kubectl create cm configmap2 --from-file=config.txt
kubectl get cm configmap2 -o yaml

Create and display a configmap from a .env file

Create the file with the command

echo -e "var1=val1\n# this is a comment\n\nvar2=val2\n#anothercomment" > config.env
show

kubectl create cm configmap3 --from-env-file=config.env
kubectl get cm configmap3 -o yaml

Create and display a configmap from a file, giving the key 'special'

Create the file with

echo -e "var3=val3\nvar4=val4" > config4.txt
show

kubectl create cm configmap4 --from-file=special=config4.txt
kubectl describe cm configmap4
kubectl get cm configmap4 -o yaml

Create a configMap called 'options' with the value var5=val5. Create a new nginx pod that loads the value from variable 'var5' in an env variable called 'option'

show

kubectl create cm options --from-literal=var5=val5
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --dry-run=client -o yaml > pod.yaml

  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx -- env | grep option # will show 'option=val5'

Secrets

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Concepts > Configuration > Secrets

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Tasks > Inject Data Into Applications > Distribute Credentials Securely Using Secrets

Create a secret called mysecret with the values password=mypass

show

kubectl create secret generic mysecret --from-literal=password=mypass

Create a secret called mysecret2 that gets key/value from a file

Create a file called username with the value admin:

echo -n admin > username
show

kubectl create secret generic mysecret2 --from-file=username

Get the value of mysecret2

show

kubectl get secret mysecret2 -o yaml
echo -n YWRtaW4= | base64 -d # on MAC it is -D, which decodes the value and shows 'admin'

Alternative using --jsonpath:

kubectl get secret mysecret2 -o jsonpath='{.data.username}' | base64 -d  # on MAC it is -D

Alternative using --template:

kubectl get secret mysecret2 --template '{{.data.username}}' | base64 -d  # on MAC it is -D

Alternative using jq:

kubectl get secret mysecret2 -o json | jq -r .data.username | base64 -d  # on MAC it is -D
