Kubernetes : Create Service Account with permission for a specific namespace + Generate KUBECONFIG

README.md

Create KUBECONFIG limited to specific namespace

• create_user_for_namespace.sh: Create $namespace-user ServiceAccount with full access to specified namespace and get KUBECONFIG
• kubeconfig-generator.sh : Generate the KUBECONFIG of an existing sericeaccout + namespace

Ex : Create Gitlab-user on gitlab namespace

curl $GIST_URL/raw/bb5ba7e3cc2b1e7be0006f7a2bc3d0f5d73958ec/create_user_for_namespace.sh | bash -s gitlab

Ex : Get KUBECONFIG for existing gitlab-admin SA on gitlab NS

GIST_URL=https://gist.githubusercontent.com/mikamboo/5e20ea4a0aef8289e40f62844dec7bc8
curl $GIST_URL/raw/784db06717505e609a5e387eff97d6917c5ff42b/kubeconfig-generator.sh | bash -s gitlab gitlab-admin

Encrypt kubeconfig file

KUBECONFIG=/path/to/file/to/encrypt
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -md sha512 -pbkdf2 -a -e -k $ENCRYPT_KEY -in $KUBECONFIG -out $KUBECONFIG_ENC
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -md sha512 -pbkdf2 -a -d -k $ENCRYPT_KEY -in $KUBECONFIG_ENC -out $KUBECONFIG
