Secret Type - DOCKERCFG

The DOCKERCFG-Type is for syncing the Pull-Credentials for secured Docker repositories. The data has to be saved in a specific format inside a KV Secret Engine.

Based on your used Key Value Secret Engine please see the following instructions.

How To for KV Engine V1:

As already described the Pull-Credentials must be saved in a specific format inside a KV Secret Engine:

$ vault write secret/gitlab-hub url=registry.gitlab.com username=username password=VERYSECUREPASSWORD email=[e-mail]

After this you can apply the following Vault Resource to Kubernetes:

apiVersion: "koudingspawn.de/v1"
kind: Vault
metadata:
  name: test-dockercfg
spec:
  path: "secret/gitlab-hub"
  type: "DOCKERCFG"

Now you should see a Vault resource in Kubernetes and the created Docker Pull-Credentials:

$ kubectl get vault test-dockercfg
NAME             AGE
test-dockercfg   8d

$ kubectl get secret test-dockercfg
NAME             TYPE                      DATA      AGE
test-dockercfg   kubernetes.io/dockercfg   1         8d

How To for KV Engine V2:

As already described the Pull-Credentials must be saved in a specific format inside a KV2 Secret Engine:

$ vault kv put secret/gitlab-hub url=registry.gitlab.com username=username password=VERYSECUREPASSWORD email=[e-mail]

After this you can apply the following Vault Resource to Kubernetes:

apiVersion: "koudingspawn.de/v1"
kind: Vault
metadata:
  name: test-dockercfg
spec:
  path: "secret/gitlab-hub"
  type: "DOCKERCFG"
  dockerCfgConfiguration:
    type: "KEYVALUEV2"
    version: 1

Now you should see a Vault resource in Kubernetes and the created Docker Pull-Credentials:

$ kubectl get vault test-dockercfg
NAME             AGE
test-dockercfg   8d

$ kubectl get secret test-dockercfg
NAME             TYPE                      DATA      AGE
test-dockercfg   kubernetes.io/dockercfg   1         8d

Supported Values in dockerCfgConfiguration

dockerCfgConfiguration:
  type: "KEYVALUEV2" or "KEYVALUE"   if not provided default: "KEYVALUE"
  version: 1                         if not provided default is latest
