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

    resources: {}
    env:
    - name: option # name of the env variable
      valueFrom:
        configMapKeyRef:
          name: options # name of config map

status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx -- env | grep option # will show 'option=val5'

Create a configMap 'anotherone' with values 'var6=val6', 'var7=val7'. Load this configMap as env variables into a new nginx pod

show 

kubectl create configmap anotherone --from-literal=var6=val6 --from-literal=var7=val7

        name: anotherone # the name of the config map
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml

Create a configMap 'cmvolume' with values 'var8=val8', 'var9=val9'. Load this as a volume inside an nginx pod on path '/etc/lala'. Create the pod and 'ls' into the '/etc/lala' directory.

show 

kubectl create configmap cmvolume --from-literal=var8=val8 --from-literal=var9=val9

show 

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --dry-run=client -o yaml > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  securityContext: # insert this line
    runAsUser: 101 # UID for the user
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}

Create the YAML for an nginx pod that has the capabilities "NET_ADMIN", "SYS_TIME" added to its single container

show 

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --dry-run=client -o yaml > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    securityContext: # insert this line
      capabilities: # and this
        add: ["NET_ADMIN", "SYS_TIME"] # this as well
    resources: {}
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}

Requests and limits

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Tasks > Configure Pods and Containers > Assign CPU Resources to Containers and Pods

Create an nginx pod with requests cpu=100m,memory=256Mi and limits cpu=200m,memory=512Mi

show 

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --dry-run=client -o yaml > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    name: nginx
    resources:
      requests:
        memory: "256Mi"
        cpu: 100m

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

Create an nginx pod that mounts the secret mysecret2 in a volume on path /etc/foo

show 

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never -o yaml --dry-run=client > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  volumes: # specify the volumes
  - name: foo # this name will be used for reference inside the container
    secret: # we want a secret
      secretName: mysecret2 # name of the secret - this must already exist on pod creation
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
    volumeMounts: # our volume mounts
    - name: foo # name on pod.spec.volumes
      mountPath: /etc/foo #our mount path
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx /bin/bash
ls /etc/foo  # shows username
cat /etc/foo/username # shows admin

Delete the pod you just created and mount the variable 'username' from secret mysecret2 onto a new nginx pod in env variable called 'USERNAME'

show 

kubectl delete po nginx
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never -o yaml --dry-run=client > pod.yaml
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
    env: # our env variables
    - name: USERNAME # asked name
      valueFrom:
        secretKeyRef: # secret reference
          name: mysecret2 # our secret's name
          key: username # the key of the data in the secret
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx -- env | grep USERNAME | cut -d '=' -f 2 # will show 'admin'
