karmadactl create secret generic
Create a secret from a local file, directory, or literal value
Synopsis
Create a secret based on a file, directory, or specified literal value.
A single secret may package one or more key/value pairs.
When creating a secret based on a file, the key will default to the basename of the file, and the value will default to the file content. If the basename is an invalid key or you wish to chose your own, you may specify an alternate key.
When creating a secret based on a directory, each file whose basename is a valid key in the directory will be packaged into the secret. Any directory entries except regular files are ignored (e.g. subdirectories, symlinks, devices, pipes, etc).
karmadactl create secret generic NAME [--type=string] [--from-file=[key=]source] [--from-literal=key1=value1] [--dry-run=server|client|none]
Examples
# Create a new secret named my-secret with keys for each file in folder bar
kubectl create secret generic my-secret --from-file=path/to/bar
# Create a new secret named my-secret with specified keys instead of names on disk
kubectl create secret generic my-secret --from-file=ssh-privatekey=path/to/id_rsa --from-file=ssh-publickey=path/to/id_rsa.pub
# Create a new secret named my-secret with key1=supersecret and key2=topsecret
kubectl create secret generic my-secret --from-literal=key1=supersecret --from-literal=key2=topsecret
# Create a new secret named my-secret using a combination of a file and a literal
kubectl create secret generic my-secret --from-file=ssh-privatekey=path/to/id_rsa --from-literal=passphrase=topsecret
# Create a new secret named my-secret from env files
kubectl create secret generic my-secret --from-env-file=path/to/foo.env --from-env-file=path/to/bar.env
Options
--allow-missing-template-keys If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only applies to golang and jsonpath output formats. (default true)
--append-hash Append a hash of the secret to its name.
--dry-run string[="unchanged"] Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it. If server strategy, submit server-side request without persisting the resource. (default "none")
--field-manager string Name of the manager used to track field ownership. (default "kubectl-create")
--from-env-file strings Specify the path to a file to read lines of key=val pairs to create a secret.
--from-file strings Key files can be specified using their file path, in which case a default name will be given to them, or optionally with a name and file path, in which case the given name will be used. Specifying a directory will iterate each named file in the directory that is a valid secret key.
--from-literal stringArray Specify a key and literal value to insert in secret (i.e. mykey=somevalue)
-h, --help help for generic
-o, --output string Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-template, go-template-file, template, templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-json, jsonpath-file).
--save-config If true, the configuration of current object will be saved in its annotation. Otherwise, the annotation will be unchanged. This flag is useful when you want to perform kubectl apply on this object in the future.
--show-managed-fields If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format.
--template string Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang templates [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview].
--type string The type of secret to create
--validate string[="strict"] Must be one of: strict (or true), warn, ignore (or false).
"true" or "strict" will use a schema to validate the input and fail the request if invalid. It will perform server side validation if ServerSideFieldValidation is enabled on the api-server, but will fall back to less reliable client-side validation if not.
"warn" will warn about unknown or duplicate fields without blocking the request if server-side field validation is enabled on the API server, and behave as "ignore" otherwise.
"false" or "ignore" will not perform any schema validation, silently dropping any unknown or duplicate fields. (default "strict")
Options inherited from parent commands
--add-dir-header If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages
--alsologtostderr log to standard error as well as files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--kubeconfig string Paths to a kubeconfig. Only required if out-of-cluster.
--log-backtrace-at traceLocation when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace (default :0)
--log-dir string If non-empty, write log files in this directory (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--log-file string If non-empty, use this log file (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--log-file-max-size uint Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to (no effect when -logtostderr=true). Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited. (default 1800)
--logtostderr log to standard error instead of files (default true)
--one-output If true, only write logs to their native severity level (vs also writing to each lower severity level; no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--skip-headers If true, avoid header prefixes in the log messages
--skip-log-headers If true, avoid headers when opening log files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--stderrthreshold severity logs at or above this threshold go to stderr when writing to files and stderr (no effect when -logtostderr=true or -alsologtostderr=true) (default 2)
-v, --v Level number for the log level verbosity
--vmodule moduleSpec comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging
