Issues with pre-published Kubernetes secret and Camel-K integration

[bfitzpat]

So I have been able to publish a config-map using kubectl with kubectl create configmap <config-id> --from-file=<config.file> and then run an integration with kamel run --configmap=<config-id> <myintegration.file> and have that work fine.

But when I attempt the same approach with secrets, I'm hitting weird issues.

First, I'm assuming the secret itself is a base64-encoded list of name/value pairs.

Second, I was able to create a secret config-map yaml file by hand and it worked just fine.

If I create the secret yaml file by hand so it looks like what you have in https://camel.apache.org/staging/camel-k/latest/configuration/configmap-secret.html, it works. Run kubectl apply -f my-secret.yaml and then use kamel run --secret=<secret-id-from-my-secret-yaml> <myintegration.file>. That works great.

Unfortunately I run into issues if I go a slightly different route...

If I create my secret with kubectl create secret generic <secret-id> --from-file=<base64-encoded-secret.file>, I see the secret in my Kubernetes system. And then I use kamel run --secret=<secret-id> <myintegration.file>, I'm getting very weird results.

Two new config maps are created -- -properties and -source-000 --
and I'm seeing errors in the camel log...

Is there a structure to the secret file that I feed to kubectl create secret generic that I need to follow?

This was an issue on our side, not on the Camel K side. We now support starting an integration in the Camel K VS Code extension with the --configmap or --secret flag referencing a designated configMap or secret available in the Kubernetes system.
