How to mount configuration files in kubernetes?

In Kubernetes, you can use ConfigMap and Secret to mount configuration files.

  1. ConfigMap: Store configuration files in key-value pairs within a ConfigMap, and then mount the ConfigMap to a directory in the Pod.
    Creating a ConfigMap:
  2. Create a configuration map called ‘my-config’ using the file ‘config-file.conf’.
  3. Mounting ConfigMap in a Pod.
  4. api version is v1 and kind is Pod with metadata name as my-pod. The specifications include a container named my-container with an image my-image and a volume mount called config-volume at /path/to/config. Additionally, there is a volume named config-volume with a config map named my-config.
  5. Store sensitive configuration files in Kubernetes as Secrets, then mount the Secret to a directory in the Pod. Create a Secret.
  6. Create a secret named “my-secret” with the data from the file “config-file.conf” using kubectl.
  7. Mounting Secrets in a Pod:
  8. API version: v1
    Category: Pod
    Information:
    title: my-pod
    Specifications:
    – title: my-container
    picture: my-image
    Volume Mounts:
    – title: secret-volume
    Mount Path: /path/to/config
    Volumes:
    – title: secret-volume
    secret:
    secret name: my-secret

In the example above, config-file.conf is the configuration file to be mounted, and /path/to/config is the directory in the Pod where it will be mounted. Adjustments can be made as needed.
