Secret Stores

The table below describes the list of actions that can be performed on "Secret Store" using the RCTL CLI Utility.

Resource	Create	Get	Update	Apply	Delete
Secret Store	YES	YES	YES	YES	YES

A declarative approach (YAML files) to lifecycle management of Secret Store is strongly recommended that are version controlled in your Git repository.

Create Secret Stores¶

Use the below command to create a secret store and this creates a secret store in both UI and Git Repo

./rctl create secretstore -f <filename.yaml>

An illustrative example of the secret store spec YAML file is shown below

apiVersion: integrations.k8smgmt.io/v3
kind: SecretStore
metadata:
    name: testdemo03
    project: defaultproject
    displayName: testdemo03
spec:
    provider: Vault
    config:
        vault:
            host:
            clusters:
            - authPath: authpath01testdemo03
              clusterName: tb98cl02
              vaultNamespace: vns01testdemo03

Update Secret Stores¶

Use the below command to update the changes performed in the secret store yaml file and this update gets reflected in both UI and Git Repo

./rctl update secretstore -f <filenam.yaml>

Apply Secret Store¶

Use the below apply command to create new resource(s) or changes in the yaml file

./rctl apply -f yamlfile.yaml

Wait Flag¶

RCTL provides an option for the users to wait and block the long running operations. When an automation pipeline logic becomes extremely convoluted, enabling the --wait flag helps to block and keep pulling the status (example: success/failure)

Flag	Create	Update	Apply
--wait	YES	YES	YES

Below is an example of the successful secret store creation with -wait flag

./rctl create secretstore -f demo-file.yaml --wait

status[0]: vault integration process in progress...

status[1]: vault integration process in progress...

status[2]: vault integration process in progress...

status[3]: vault integration process in progress...

status[4]: vault integration process in progress...

status[5]: vault integration process in progress...

status[6]: vault integration process in progress...

status[7]: vault integration process in progress...

status[8]: vault integration process in progress...

NOTE: vault integration successful for cluster tb98cl02:
