cert-manager
cert-manager is a Kubernetes addon to automate the management and issuance of certificates from an aribitrary issuing source.
It is loosely based upon the work of kube-lego and has borrowed some wisdome from other similar projects eg. kube-cert-manager.
Current status
This project is still heavily under development and is not ready for use yet. However, if you want to experiment, please do try running the current development build and reporting any issues you run into.
Future plans
Soon, I'd like to see cert-manager expose it's own API server, to be used by the apiserver-aggregator. This will allow us to perform verification of resources as they are submitted, and consequently reject 'bad' manifests.
Deploying
To deploy the latest development version, run:
$ kubectl create -f docs/cert-manager.yaml
There is an example Certificate resource in docs/acme-cert.yaml, however
requesting certificates via Ingress is not currently supported - instead, you
must point your domain at the service created for cert-manager manually. This
will naturally change over the coming days and weeks!
$ kubectl create -f docs/acme-cert.yaml
