tencent cloud

This document describes how to convert certificate files in Kubeconfig to certificate data.

Prerequisites

You must activate the CODING DevOps service for your Tencent Cloud account before you can use Coding Continuous Deployment (CD).

Open Project

1. Log in to the CODING console and click the team domain name to enter the CODING page.
2. On the Workspace homepage, click on the left to go to the Continuous Deployment console.

Feature Overview

When adding a Kubernetes cloud account, you can select Kubeconfig or Service Account authentication method:

For authentication using Kubeconfig certificate files (in the example below, certificate-authority, client-certificate, and client-key are all specific files that contain certificate information), you need to convert the certificate files to base64-encoded strings before adding a cloud account.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Config
clusters:
- cluster:
  certificate-authority: */ca.crt
  server: https://******
name: demo
contexts:
- context:
  cluster: demo
  user: demo
name: demo
current-context: demo
preferences: {}
users:
- name: demo
user:
  client-certificate: */client.crt
  client-key: */client.key

The section below explains how to perform the conversion.

Get the base64-encoded string of the certificate file

Run the following commands:

OS X

cat "certificate file" | base64

Linux

cat "certificate file" | base64

Windows

certutil -f -encode "certificate file" "output file"

Update Kubeconfig file

1. Change certificate-authority to certificate-authority-data, and enter the base64-encoded string of the */ca.crt certificate file.
2. Change client-certificate to client-certificate-data, and enter the base64-encoded string of the */client.crt certificate file.
3. Change client-key to client-key-data, and enter the base64-encoded string of the */client.key certificate file.

The result is as follows:
