kubeseal-auto

kubeseal-auto is an interactive wrapper for kubeseal binary used to encrypt secrets for sealed-secrets.

Installation

The recommended way to install this script is pipx:

pipx install kubeseal-auto

Usage

By default, the script will check the version of sealed-secret controller and download the corresponding kubeseal binary to ~/bin directory.

To run the script in fully interactive mode:

kubeseal-auto

Additionally, a "detached" mode is supported:

# Download sealed-secrets certificate for local signing
kubeseal-auto --fetch
# Generate SealedSecret with local certificate
kubeseal-auto --cert <kubectl-context>-kubeseal-cert.crt

Important

In the detached mode kubeseal-auto will not download the kubeseal binary and will look for it in the system $PATH.

To select kubeconfig context:

kubeseal-auto --select

To append or change key values in the existing secret:

kubeseal-auto --edit secret-name.yaml

To reencrypt all secrets in a directory (not working in a detached mode):

kubeseal-auto --re-encrypt /path/to/directory

To back up the encryption and decryption keys (not working in a detached mode):

kubeseal-auto --backup
