The Kubernetes ConfigMap Store extends the Vert.x Configuration Retriever and provides the support Kubernetes Config Map and Secrets.
So, configuration is retrieved by reading the config map or the secrets.
Using the Kubernetes ConfigMap Store
To use the Kubernetes ConfigMap Store, add the following dependency to the dependencies section of your build descriptor:
-
Maven (in your
pom.xml):
<dependency>
<groupId>io.vertx</groupId>
<artifactId>vertx-config-kubernetes-configmap</artifactId>
<version>3.4.0.Beta1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.vertx</groupId>
<artifactId>vertx-config</artifactId>
<version>3.4.0.Beta1</version>
</dependency>
-
Gradle (in your
build.gradlefile):
compile 'io.vertx:vertx-config:3.4.0.Beta1'
compile 'io.vertx:vertx-config-kubernetes-configmap:3.4.0.Beta1'
Configuring the store
Once added to your classpath or dependencies, you need to configure the
ConfigRetriever to use this store:
var ConfigRetriever = require("vertx-config-js/config_retriever");
var store = {
"type" : "configmap",
"config" : {
"namespace" : "my-project-namespace",
"name" : "configmap-name"
}
};
var retriever = ConfigRetriever.create(vertx, {
"stores" : [
store
]
});
You need to configure the store to find the right configmap. this is done with:
-
namespace- the project namespace,defaultby default. If theKUBERNETES_NAMESPACEENV variable is set, it uses this value. -
name- the name of the config map
If the config map is composed by several element, you can use the key parameter to tell
which key is read
The application must have the permissions to read the config map.
To read data from a secret, just configure the secret property to true:
var ConfigRetriever = require("vertx-config-js/config_retriever");
var store = {
"type" : "configmap",
"config" : {
"namespace" : "my-project-namespace",
"name" : "my-secret",
"secret" : true
}
};
var retriever = ConfigRetriever.create(vertx, {
"stores" : [
store
]
});
