How Can I Create ConfigMap From File

[stupid-yu]

Hi, I want to create a configmap from file, is there any api implements the action kubectl create configmap [name] --from-flie=

I think this could be a good addition. We do have same functionality in Eclipse JKube ConfigMapEnricher .

We should port this functionality to a static utility method (preferably KubernetesResourceUtil) in KubernetesClient.

Expected Behavior:

Method's expected behavior should be same as defined in Kubernetes Docs.

Creating From File

Given File game.properteis

enemies=aliens
lives=3
enemies.cheat=true
enemies.cheat.level=noGoodRotten
secret.code.passphrase=UUDDLRLRBABAS
secret.code.allowed=true
secret.code.lives=30

When upon running this command:

kubectl create configmap game-config --from-file=game.properties

then this ConfigMap is created:

apiVersion: v1
data:
  game.properties: |-
    enemies=aliens
    lives=3
    enemies.cheat=true
    enemies.cheat.level=noGoodRotten
    secret.code.passphrase=UUDDLRLRBABAS
    secret.code.allowed=true
    secret.code.lives=30
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: game-config

ConfigMap from directory

Given directory with files:

 $ ls configure-pod-container/configmap/
game.properties  ui.properties

When this command gets invoked:

$ kubectl create configmap game-config --from-file=configure-pod-container/configmap

Then this ConfigMap gets created:

apiVersion: v1
data:
  game.properties: |-
    enemies=aliens
    lives=3
    enemies.cheat=true
    enemies.cheat.level=noGoodRotten
    secret.code.passphrase=UUDDLRLRBABAS
    secret.code.allowed=true
    secret.code.lives=30
  ui.properties: |
    color.good=purple
    color.bad=yellow
    allow.textmode=true
    how.nice.to.look=fairlyNice
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: game-config
  namespace: default

We should port this functionality to a static utility method (preferably KubernetesResourceUtil) in KubernetesClient.

Maybe also include it as part of the DSL for ConfigMaps
