sekr8s: A Kubernetes Secrets CLI

This package provides a CLI for interacting with a Kubernetes server to create, read, and update Secrets on the server.

This depends on having kubectl installed on your path, and will not function otherwise. It also depends on having node + npm installed.

Installation

Install kubectl and node, then run:

npm install -g sekr8s

or with yarn:

yarn global add sekr8s

Usage

Run sekr8s -h for help, and sekr8s {cmd} -h for command-specific help.

Read a Secret

Read all keys from a secret, printing them in base64:

$ sekr8s get my-secret
All keys from my-secret -
bar: YmFyaw==
foo: Zm9vZA==

Read all keys, printing them decoded (this will be annoying for binary values):

$ sekr8s get -d my-secret
All keys from my-secret -
bar: bark
foo: food

Read a single key:

$ sekr8s get -d my-secret foo
Selected keys from my-secret -
foo: food

Read a single key, and pipe the output to a file (this is especially good for binary data):

$ sekr8s get -d -q my-secret foo > foo.txt
$ cat foo.txt
food⏎

Set values in a Secret

Set a list of keys, typing in raw values:

$ sekr8s set my-secret foo bar
New unencoded value for foo: fool
New unencoded value for bar: bard
my-secret updated.

Set a single value, piped in from file:

$ cat foo.txt | sekr8s set my-secret foo
my-secret updated.

Set a base64-encoded valu (useful for keys with newlines):

$ echo -n -e 'foodie\nfool' | base64 | sekr8s set --encoded my-secret foo
my-secret updated.

Create a Secret

Create with keys foo and bar:

$ sekr8s create my-secret foo bar
New unencoded value for foo: food
New unencoded value for bar: bark
my-secret updated.
