Chapter 6. Enabling features after deployment

Procedure

1. On the OpenShift Container Platform web console, click Operators Installed Operators Red Hat Quay.
2. Click Quay Registry and then the name of your registry.
3. Under Config Bundle Secret, click the name of your secret, for example, quay-config-bundle.
4. On the Secret details page, click Actions Edit secret.
5. In the Value text box, add the new configuration fields for the features that you want to enable. For a list of all configuration fields, see Configure Red Hat Quay.
6. Click Save. The Red Hat Quay Operator automatically reconciles the changes by restarting all Quay-related pods. After all pods are restarted, the features are enabled.

Procedure

1. Describe the QuayRegistry resource by entering the following command:

   $ oc describe quayregistry -n <quay_namespace>

   # ...
     Config Bundle Secret: example-registry-config-bundle-v123x
   # ...

2. Obtain the secret data by entering the following command:

   $ oc get secret -n <quay_namespace> <example-registry-config-bundle-v123x> -o jsonpath='{.data}'

   {
       "config.yaml": "RkVBVFVSRV9VU0 ... MDAwMAo="
   }

3. Decode the data into a YAML file into the current directory by passing in the >> config.yaml flag. For example:

   $ echo 'RkVBVFVSRV9VU0 ... MDAwMAo=' | base64 --decode >> config.yaml

4. Make the desired changes to your config.yaml file, and then save the file as config.yaml.

5. Create a new configBundleSecret YAML by entering the following command.

   $ touch <new_configBundleSecret_name>.yaml

6. Create the new configBundleSecret resource, passing in the config.yaml file` by entering the following command:

   $ oc -n <namespace> create secret generic <secret_name> \
     --from-file=config.yaml=</path/to/config.yaml> \
     --dry-run=client -o yaml > <new_configBundleSecret_name>.yaml

   where:

   </path/to/config.yaml>

   Specifies your base64 decoded config.yaml file.

7. Create the configBundleSecret resource by entering the following command:

   $ oc create -n <namespace> -f <new_configBundleSecret_name>.yaml

   secret/config-bundle created

8. Update the QuayRegistry YAML file to reference the new configBundleSecret object by entering the following command:

   $ oc patch quayregistry <registry_name> -n <namespace> --type=merge -p '{"spec":{"configBundleSecret":"<new_configBundleSecret_name>"}}'

   quayregistry.quay.redhat.com/example-registry patched

Verification

1. Verify that the QuayRegistry CR has been updated with the new configBundleSecret:

   $ oc describe quayregistry -n <quay_namespace>

   # ...
     Config Bundle Secret: <new_configBundleSecret_name>
   # ...

   After patching the registry, the Red Hat Quay Operator automatically reconciles the changes.
