Chapter 11. Adding custom SSL/TLS certificates when Red Hat Quay is deployed on Kubernetes

Procedure

1. Base64 encode the contents of an SSL/TLS certificate by entering the following command:

   $ cat ca.crt | base64 -w 0

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   Example output

   ...c1psWGpqeGlPQmNEWkJPMjJ5d0pDemVnR2QNCnRsbW9JdEF4YnFSdVd3PT0KLS0tLS1FTkQgQ0VSVElGSUNBVEUtLS0tLQo=

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

2. Enter the following kubectl command to edit the quay-enterprise-config-secret file:

   $ kubectl --namespace quay-enterprise edit secret/quay-enterprise-config-secret

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

3. Add an entry for the certificate and paste the full base64 encoded stringer under the entry. For example:

     custom-cert.crt:
   c1psWGpqeGlPQmNEWkJPMjJ5d0pDemVnR2QNCnRsbW9JdEF4YnFSdVd3PT0KLS0tLS1FTkQgQ0VSVElGSUNBVEUtLS0tLQo=

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

4. Use the kubectl delete command to remove all Red Hat Quay pods. For example:

   $ kubectl delete pod quay-operator.v3.7.1-6f9d859bd-p5ftc quayregistry-clair-postgres-7487f5bd86-xnxpr quayregistry-quay-app-upgrade-xq2v6  quayregistry-quay-database-859d5445ff-cqthr quayregistry-quay-redis-84f888776f-hhgms

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   Afterwards, the Red Hat Quay deployment automatically schedules replace pods with the new certificate data.
