I am trying to learn about Spring Cloud Kubernetes for loading secrets and what I have observed is if a property has yml like structure, then it doesn't get loaded in app.
Ex:
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: activemq-secrets
labels:
broker: activemq
type: Opaque
data:
amqusername: bXl1c2VyCg==
amq.password: MWYyZDFlMmU2N2Rm
K8 Manifest
template:
spec:
volumes:
- name: secretvolume
secret:
secretName: activemq-secrets
containers:
-
volumeMounts:
- name: secretvolume
readOnly: true
mountPath: /etc/secrets/jvm args:
-Dspring.cloud.kubernetes.secrets.paths=/etc/secrets/
-Dspring.cloud.kubernetes.secrets.enabled=trueTrying to load @Value("${amqusername}")works
But when I try to read this property with @Value("${amq.password}") I get error with placeholder not found. I have tried printing all spring configs and it doesn't show up. How can I fix this.
Try changing the variable name in the secret to amq_password
Update:
If you use environment variables rather than system properties, most operating systems disallow period-separated key names, but you can use underscores instead (e.g. SPRING_CONFIG_NAME instead of spring.config.name).
