ConfigSeeder 2.10.0 released

3 mins read

With this release, we extend our functionality around Kubernetes Config Maps and Secrets, but also introduce the ability to work with binary files with our OS Connector. Besides the authentication option over OIDC or OAuth2, ConfigSeeder now also supports pre-authentication over request headers.

Highlight Features

Kubernetes Configmaps and Secrets

The administration of Kubernetes ConfigMaps and Secrets has become even more versatile. Until now it was possible to fill Secrets and ConfigMaps either with simple Key / Value fields or via referenced ConfigurationGroups. Newly added is the possibility to create values using Templating ConfigMap.

We have published possible applications and setups in a series of blog articles:

Binaries

It is a common scenario that binaries such as images, license keys, trust stores, certificates, etc. must be distributed as part of configurations. This is now possible with the support of the Assembly Type Binary. As with static files, it is possible to place corresponding binary files at a specific location in the file system.

Improved Templating

Easy templating

The current template editor has been extended by a few helpful features. Now the different keys of the different sources are visible and can be used at any position. For readability, the variables are highlighted.

Authentication

So far ConfigSeeder supported three different authentication options: Via OIDC, OAuth2 and for test purposes via query parameters. Not in all company environments an OIDC or OAuth2 capable authentication solution is available. Authentication also supports the use of headers, as is the case with typical pre-authenticated calls.
