kubernetes/config-and-storage-resources

The ConfigMap template in ConfigFacets is designed to create and manage Kubernetes ConfigMap resources, which are used to store non-confidential data in key-value pairs.

Key aspects of the template design

1. Modularity: The template is divided into multiple sections, each with its own facet:

{
    "data": "{{ __CM_ID__.data }}",
    "facets": [
        "addon:data"
    ]
}

This allows for flexible configuration of different ConfigMap aspects.

2. Core Metadata: The basic ConfigMap metadata is included in the "master" facet:

{
    "kind": "ConfigMap",
    "facets": [
        "master"
    ],
    "metadata": "{{ __CM_ID__.metadata }}",
    "apiVersion": "v1"
}

3. Support for Binary Data: A separate facet for binary data allows inclusion of non-UTF8 data:

{
    "binaryData": "{{ __CM_ID__.binaryData }}",
    "facets": [
        "addon:binarydata"
    ]
}

4. Immutability Option: The template includes a facet for setting the ConfigMap as immutable:

{
    "immutable": "{{ __CM_ID__.immutable }}",
    "facets": [
        "addon:immutable"
    ]
}

5. Flexibility: The use of the __CM_ID__ variable allows for dynamic population of all ConfigMap fields.

6. Extensibility: The facet-based approach allows for easy addition of new ConfigMap features in future Kubernetes versions.
