kubernetes-configmap-sync 1.1.5

This utility takes a source directory and creates automatically ConfigMap in the Kubernetes cluster based on the content of that directory.

julb/kubernetes-configmap-sync

Description

This utility takes a source directory and creates automatically ConfigMap in the Kubernetes cluster based on the content of that directory.

This can be used when :

• Configuration files for your application are stored in Git, or anything source directory.
• A regular routine will launch the container to synchronize the content of the source directory into the Kubernetes cluster.

Use the script

The directory used as source for ConfigMap creation should be organized like this:

-- ROOT/
-- -- namespace1/
-- -- -- configmap-name1/
-- -- -- -- file1.txt
-- -- -- -- file2.txt

-- -- -- configmap-name2/
-- -- -- -- [....]

-- -- namespace2/
-- -- -- [....]

-- -- namespace3/
-- -- -- [....]

Using the python module

$ pip install kubernetes-configmap-sync
$ python -m kubernetes-configmap-sync <directory>

Using the container

To execute the container, you should have a ~/.kube/config with the context pointing to the cluster. The user defined in the context should have the appropriate rights in th cluster to manage configmaps.

$ docker run -ti \
    --user 65534:65534                      \
    -e "CONFIGMAP_DIR=/opt/configmap-dir"   \
    -v $(pwd)/examples:/opt/configmap-dir   \
    -e "KUBECONFIG=/.kube/config"           \
    -v ~/.kube/config:/.kube/config         \

Environment var	Description	Default Value
CONFIGMAP_DIR	Indicates the location of the directory containing ConfigMap sources.	/opt/configmap-dir
KUBECONFIG	When run out of kubernetes, it indicates the location of the kube config used to update the cluster.	/.kube/config

When this container is run in Kubernetes with a mounted service account, the script will use that user account automatically. In that case, the KUBECONFIG parameter will have no effect.
