⚠️ This operator is not intended for production use.

This operator is a project built for educational purposes. It is a simple operator that modifies a secret to add a random value to it. It is built to demonstrate how to build an operator without using any frameworks.

Features:

• Adds a random value to a secret.
• Takes configuration from annotations (if the secret has to be updated, which key to update, if the random value should contain special characters).
• Use a CRD to define the configuration of a secret (which will be created by the operator).
• Use a MutatingWebhook to intercept the creation of the secret and add the random value to it.

Install the operator by deploying the Helm chart:

helm install randomsecrets-operator ./helm

Create a RandomSecret resource to define the configuration of the secret:

apiVersion: secret.a-cup-of.coffee/v1
kind: RandomSecret
metadata:
  name: random-secret
  namespace: default
spec:
  key: password
  secretName: secret-name
  length: 32
  static: 
    username: admin
    email: "[email protected]"

Create a secret with the following annotations:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  annotations:
    secret.a-cup-of.coffee/enable: "true"
    secret.a-cup-of.coffee/key: password
  name: non-empty-secret
  namespace: coder
type: Opaque
