I'm trying to create a read only user. I want the user to be able to list nodes and pods and view the dashboard. I got the certs created and can connect but I'm getting the following error.
$ kubectl --context minikube-ro get pods --all-namespaces
Error from server (Forbidden): pods is forbidden: User "erst-operation" cannot list pods at the cluster scope
My cluster role...
$ cat helm/namespace-core/templates/pod-reader-cluster-role.yaml
kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
namespace: '*'
name: pod-reader
rules:
- apiGroups: ["extensions", "apps"]
resources: ["pods"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch"]
My cluster role binding...
$ cat helm/namespace-core/templates/pod-reader-role-binding.yaml
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: read-pods
namespace: default
subjects:
- kind: User
name: erst-operation
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
roleRef:
kind: ClusterRole
name: pod-reader
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
I'm aware the above shouldn't grant permissions to see the dashboard but how do I get it to just list the pods?
You cluster role should contain Core group as resource pods
are in Core group.
