ConfigMap options

These options can be stored in a ConfigMap to change the ingress controller’s global behavior, affecting all Ingress routes.

How to use the ConfigMap Jump to heading #

A ConfigMap is created during the installation and you can find it with the kubectl get configmaps command:

nix
kubectl get configmaps --namespace haproxy-controller

nix
kubectl get configmaps --namespace haproxy-controller

output
text
NAME                         DATA   AGE
haproxy-kubernetes-ingress   0      13s

output
text
NAME                         DATA   AGE
haproxy-kubernetes-ingress   0      13s

You can edit the ConfigMap:

nix
kubectl edit configmap haproxy-kubernetes-ingress --namespace haproxy-controller

nix
kubectl edit configmap haproxy-kubernetes-ingress --namespace haproxy-controller

ConfigMap keys reference Jump to heading #

The following ConfigMap keys are available:

allow-list Jump to heading #

• The value is treated as a pattern file (see --configmap-patternfiles) if it starts with patterns/. It should consist of a list of IPs or CIDRs, one per line.

Values

• Comma-separated list of IP addresses and/or CIDR ranges
• Path to a pattern file, e.g. pattern/ips

Default

• No default value

Example

yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: haproxy-kubernetes-ingress
  namespace: default
data:
  allow-list: "192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.100"

yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: haproxy-kubernetes-ingress
  namespace: default
data:
  allow-list: "192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.100"

auth-realm Jump to heading #

Values

• Realm name

Default

• Protected Content

Example

yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: haproxy-kubernetes-ingress
  namespace: default
data:
  auth-realm: Admin Area

yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: haproxy-kubernetes-ingress
  namespace: default
data:
  auth-realm: Admin Area

auth-secret Jump to heading #

• Encrypted passwords are evaluated using the crypt(3) function, so depending on the system’s capabilities, different algorithms are supported.
• Unencrypted passwords (used with HAProxy insecure-password ) are not accepted.

Values

• The annotation format is a secret path namespace/secretName. If the namespace is omitted (path is only secretName) then the ingress namespace will be used. For Basic Authentication, the Secret data should contain user credentials in the form of username: encrypted and base-64 encoded password. For example:

bob: JDEkYWJjJEJYQnFwYjlCWmNaaFhMZ2JlZS4wcy8=

bob: JDEkYWJjJEJYQnFwYjlCWmNaaFhMZ2JlZS4wcy8=

Create the Kubernetes Secret resource in the following way:

bash
kubectl create secret generic haproxy-credentials \
  --from-literal=bob=$(openssl passwd -1 bobPassword) \
  --from-literal=alice=$(openssl passwd -1 alicePassword)
  # secret/haproxy-credentials created

bash
kubectl create secret generic haproxy-credentials \
  --from-literal=bob=$(openssl passwd -1 bobPassword) \
  --from-literal=alice=$(openssl passwd -1 alicePassword)
  # secret/haproxy-credentials created

ssl-redirect-port Jump to heading #

• When setting the HTTPS port value, keep in mind that this is the HTTPS port as seen by the client, not as set on the Ingress Controller.

As a consequence, it must be set with a distinct consideration of how the HTTPS port is set on Ingress Controller with the https-bind-port command line option.
