External Secrets


The External Secrets Operator reads information from a third party service like AWS Secrets Manager and automatically injects the values as Kubernetes Secrets.

Multiple people and organizations are joining efforts to create a single External Secrets solution based on existing projects. If you are curious about the origins of this project, check out this issue and this PR.

Supported Backends

ESO installation with an AWS example

If you want to use Helm:

helm repo add external-secrets https://charts.external-secrets.io

helm install external-secrets \
   external-secrets/external-secrets \
    -n external-secrets \
    --create-namespace \
  # --set installCRDs=true

If you want to run it locally against the active Kubernetes cluster context:

git clone https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets.git
make crds.install
make run

Create a secret containing your AWS credentials:

echo -n 'KEYID' > ./access-key
echo -n 'SECRETKEY' > ./secret-access-key
kubectl create secret generic awssm-secret --from-file=./access-key  --from-file=./secret-access-key

Create a secret inside AWS Secret Manager with name my-json-secret with the following data:

{
  "name": {"first": "Tom", "last": "Anderson"},
  "friends": [
    {"first": "Dale", "last": "Murphy"},
    {"first": "Roger", "last": "Craig"},
    {"first": "Jane", "last": "Murphy"}
  ]
}

Apply the sample resources (omitting role and controller keys here, you should not omit them in production):

# secretstore.yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1alpha1
kind: SecretStore
metadata:
  name: secretstore-sample
spec:
  provider:
    aws:
      service: SecretsManager
      region: us-east-2
      auth:
        secretRef:
          accessKeyIDSecretRef:
            name: awssm-secret
            key: access-key
          secretAccessKeySecretRef:
            name: awssm-secret
            key: secret-access-key
# externalsecret.yaml
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1alpha1
kind: ExternalSecret
metadata:
  name: example
spec:
  refreshInterval: 1m
  secretStoreRef:
    name: secretstore-sample
    kind: SecretStore
  target:
    name: secret-to-be-created
    creationPolicy: Owner
  data:
  - secretKey: firstname
    remoteRef:
      key: my-json-secret
      property: name.first # Tom
  - secretKey: first_friend
    remoteRef:
      key: my-json-secret
      property: friends.1.first # Roger
kubectl apply -f secretstore.yaml
kubectl apply -f externalsecret.yaml

Running kubectl get secret secret-to-be-created should return a new secret created by the operator.

You can get one of its values with jsonpath (This should return Roger):

kubectl get secret secret-to-be-created   -o jsonpath='{.data.first_friend}' | base64 -d

We will add more documentation once we have the implementation for the different providers. You can find some here: https://external-secrets.io
