Finding out the Kubernetes object that uses the Kubernetes secret-CodePudding

I want to know the Object(Deployment/Statefulset/..) which is using a secret. Is there a way to find this out from a secret? Is there a tool in Kubernetes community to do this?

CodePudding user response：

Seems like there is nothing built in, but you can use kubectl in conjuction with jq to figure it out. Here is the example for deployments

kubectl get deployment -o json | jq '.items[] | select(.spec.template.spec.volumes[]? | .secret.secretName=="<secret name>") | .metadata.name'

CodePudding user response：

You can use this command to show the labels of the Object(Deployment/Statefulset) that matches the labels of the Secret

The Pods for example

kubectl get pods [pod_name] --show-labels

To get the label of the Secrets

kubectl describe secrets [secret_name]

kubectl get secrets
