I have two .pem files, one public and one private, that I want to use in my Rancher kubernetes cluster as a secret. In the API, I have gone to Resource->Secrets->Certificates and added the certificate with the name cenc-encryption-certificate
. In my YAML, I've added the following information
- mountPath: /etc/ssl/certs
name: cenc-encryption-certificate
readOnly: true
volumes:
- name: cenc-encryption-certificate
secret:
defaultMode: 420
optional: false
secretName: cenc-encryption-certificate
This loads up, but doesn't put the certificate on the file system. I believe I need a key/path in items, but I don't know what value those should be. How do I get the .pem files into my container?
It turns out that it was putting the files out. It seems that there are two files: tls.crt
and tls.key
that get placed. If you're interested in pulling the keys out themselves, you can use those values as keys to rename them. Since putting them in /etc/ssl/hosts was also clearing out the directory, the final values I went with were:
- mountPath: /etc/ssl/certs/cenc-encryption-certificate
name: cenc-encryption-certificate
readOnly: true
- name: cenc-encryption-certificate
secret:
optional: false
secretName: cenc-encryption-certificate
items:
- key: tls.crt
path: tls.crt
- key: tls.key
path: tls.key
