Seal a secret

The following steps describe, how to generate a sealed secret: kubectl-commands > secret generic

1. Generate the source secret file

   • From raw data

   kubectl create secret generic my-secret --dry-run=client --from-literal=name=secretname --from-literal=password=topsecret -o yaml > my-secret.yaml

   • From a file:

   kubectl create secret generic my-secret --dry-run=client --from-file=mysecret=path/to/mysecret -o yaml > my-secret.yaml

2. Seal the previously generated secret file

kubeseal --format yaml < my-secret.yaml > my-sealedsecret.yaml

3. Cleanup

Remove the raw secret carefully so that it is not versioned by git. Last but not least add the sealed secret to git.
