Configure password authentication

Creating a User

ResiliencyIO allows define multiple users to login trought to a Kubernetes Secret. By default, this Secret is called:

<instance-name>-users

You can define multiple users inside the same <instance-name>-users secret. In this guide, we’ll use the resiliency-io-users secret.

1. Download the current secret content

Save the current users list to a file:

kubectl get secret resiliency-io-users -n resiliency-system -o jsonpath="{.data.users\.yaml}" | base64 --decode > users.yaml

2. Add more users

Edit the users.yaml file and append new user entries following the same structure:

# Existing users
# ...

# New users:
- email: user@example.com
  username: username
  password: your-password

3. Update the Kubernetes secret

Once the file is updated, re-encode it and update the secret:

kubectl create secret generic resiliency-io-users \
  --from-file=users.yaml=users.yaml \
  -n resiliency-system \
  --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -

This will overwrite the existing secret with the updated list of users.

You can check that the users were correctly updated by decoding the secret again:

kubectl get secret resiliency-io-users -n resiliency-system -o jsonpath="{.data.users\.yaml}" | base64 --decode
