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
vi pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod

spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
    env:
    - name: option # name of the env variable
      valueFrom:
        configMapKeyRef:
          name: options # name of config map
          key: var5 # name of the entity in config map

  restartPolicy: Never
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

spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
    envFrom: # different than previous one, that was 'env'
    - configMapRef: # different from the previous one, was 'configMapKeyRef'
        name: anotherone # the name of the config map
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx -- env

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
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: # add a volumes list
  - name: myvolume # just a name, you'll reference this in the pods
    configMap:
      name: cmvolume # name of your configmap
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
    volumeMounts: # your volume mounts are listed here
    - name: myvolume # the name that you specified in pod.spec.volumes.name
      mountPath: /etc/lala # the path inside your container
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl exec -it nginx -- /bin/sh
cd /etc/lala
ls # will show var8 var9
cat var8 # will show val8

SecurityContext

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Tasks > Configure Pods and Containers > Configure a Security Context for a Pod or Container

Create the YAML for an nginx pod that runs with the user ID 101. No need to create the pod

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 on 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 --restart=Never --requests='cpu=100m,memory=256Mi' --limits='cpu=200m,memory=512Mi'

Note: Use of --requests and --limits flags in the imperative run command is deprecated as of 1.21 K8s version and will be removed in the future. Instead, use kubectl set resources command in combination with kubectl run --dry-run=client -o yaml ... as shown below.

Alternative using set resources in combination with imperative run command:

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl set resources -f - --requests=cpu=100m,memory=256Mi --limits=cpu=200m,memory=512Mi --local -o yaml > nginx-pod.yml
kubectl create -f nginx-pod.yml

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

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'

ServiceAccounts

kubernetes.io > Documentation > Tasks > Configure Pods and Containers > Configure Service Accounts for Pods

See all the service accounts of the cluster in all namespaces

show 

kubectl get sa --all-namespaces

Alternatively

kubectl get sa -A

Create a new serviceaccount called 'myuser'

show 

kubectl create sa myuser

Alternatively:

# let's get a template easily
kubectl get sa default -o yaml > sa.yaml
vim sa.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: myuser
kubectl create -f sa.yaml

Create an nginx pod that uses 'myuser' as a service account

show 

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --serviceaccount=myuser -o yaml --dry-run=client > pod.yaml
kubectl apply -f pod.yaml

or you can add manually:

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:
  serviceAccountName: myuser # we use pod.spec.serviceAccountName
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}

or

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  serviceAccount: myuser # we use pod.spec.serviceAccount
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}
kubectl create -f pod.yaml
kubectl describe pod nginx # will see that a new secret called myuser-token-***** has been mounted
