I need to place a config file default.json in a container mountPath that already have other config files. The way I tried to do this, seems to overwrite the path causing the system not to see the other files in the same directory.
Any ideas how I can do this?
The below code hide the other files from the system.
initContainers:
- name: install
image: busybox
command:
- wget
- "-O"
- "/usr/share/nginx/html/config/default.json"
- https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/.../default.json
volumeMounts:
- name: console-config
mountPath: "/usr/share/nginx/html/config"
volumes:
- name: console-config
emptyDir: {}
Using subPath field, you can mount the directory or file without overwriting other files, you can find more information here subPath
initContainers:
- name: install
image: busybox
command:
- wget
- "-O"
- "/usr/share/nginx/html/config/default.json"
- https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/.../default.json
volumeMounts:
- name: console-config
mountPath: "/usr/share/nginx/html/config"
subPath: config
volumes:
- name: console-config
emptyDir: {}
