cndi E702 - failure to persist a Kubernetes Secret with stringData from cndi-config

[johnstonmatt]

description

The cndi CLI exits with error code 702 when a Kubernetes Secret resource is created without any data or stringData

resolution tips

incorrect:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: bad-secret-example

---

correct:

# .env
MY_VAR='bar'

# correct:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: good-secret-example
stringData:
  foo: '$.cndi.secrets.seal(MY_VAR)'

Passing a $.cndi.secrets(MY_VAR) alongside defining MY_VAR in your environment, will result in that value being inserted into a new SealedSecret, and shared with your cluster in a secure way.

If you are intending to declare a secret without a value, please drop us a line in this thread
