ConfigMap

A representation of a Kubernetes ConfigMap object within Piceli.

ConfigMaps allow you to decouple configuration artifacts from image content to keep containerized applications portable. The ConfigMap class in Piceli facilitates the creation and management of ConfigMaps, enabling you to store configuration data as key-value pairs and consume them in your pods or use them to set command-line arguments for your containers.

Properties

• name: The name of the ConfigMap, defined using the names.Name type to ensure it adheres to Kubernetes naming conventions.

• data: A dictionary where each key-value pair represents the data stored in the ConfigMap.

• labels: Optional labels to apply to the ConfigMap, enhancing its discoverability and organization within Kubernetes.

Examples

config_map = ConfigMap(
    name="example-configmap",
    data={
        "configKey": "configValue",
        "settings.json": "{\"key\": \"value\"}"
    }
)

This example demonstrates the creation of a ConfigMap named “example-configmap” with two entries in its data: a simple key-value pair and a JSON configuration stored as a string. This ConfigMap can then be used by pods to externalize configuration details.
