Tugger is Kubernetes Admission webhook to enforce pulling of docker images from private registry.

Kubernetes 1.9.0 or above with the admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1 API enabled. Verify that by the following command:

kubectl api-versions | grep admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1beta1

The result should be:

admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1beta1

In addition, the MutatingAdmissionWebhook and ValidatingAdmissionWebhook admission controllers should be added and listed in the correct order in the admission-control flag of kube-apiserver.

# Build docker image
docker build -t jainishshah17/tugger:0.1.8 .

# Push it to Docker Registry
docker push jainishshah17/tugger:0.1.8

# Create a Docker registry secret called 'regsecret'
kubectl create secret docker-registry regsecret --docker-server=${DOCKER_REGISTRY} --docker-username=${DOCKER_USER} --docker-password=${DOCKER_PASS} --docker-email=${DOCKER_EMAIL}

Note: Create Docker registry secret in each non-whitelisted namespaces.

./tls/gen-cert.sh

./webhook/webhook-patch-ca-bundle.sh

The helm chart can generate certificates and configure webhooks in a single step. See the notes on webhooks below for more information.

# Add Tugger Helm repository
helm repo add tugger https://jainishshah17.github.io/tugger

# Update Helm repository index
helm repo update

helm install --name tugger \
  --set docker.registrySecret=regsecret, \
  --set docker.registryUrl=jainishshah17, \
  --set whitelistNamespaces={kube-system,default}, \
  --set whitelistRegistries={jainishshah17} \
  --set createValidatingWebhook=true \
  --set createMutatingWebhook=true \
  tugger/tugger

1. Create deployment and service

   # Run deployment
   kubectl create -f deployment/tugger-deployment.yaml
   
   # Create service
   kubectl create -f  deployment/tugger-svc.yaml

2. Configure MutatingAdmissionWebhook and ValidatingAdmissionWebhook

   Note: Replace ${CA_BUNDLE} with value generated by running ./webhook/webhook-patch-ca-bundle.sh

   # re MutatingAdmissionWebhook
   kubectl create -f webhook/tugger-mutating-webhook ration.yaml

   Note: Use MutatingAdmissionWebhook only if you want to enforce pulling of docker image from Private Docker Registry e.g JFrog Artifactory. If your container image is nginx then Tugger will append REGISTRY_URL to it. e.g nginx will become jainishshah17/nginx

   # Configure ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
   kubectl create -f webhook/tugger-validating-webhook ration.yaml

   Note: Use ValidatingWebhookConfiguration only if you want to check pulling of docker image from Private Docker Registry e.g JFrog Artifactory. If your container image does not contain REGISTRY_URL then Tugger will deny request to run that pod.

# Deploy nginx
kubectl apply -f test/nginx.yaml

The mutation or validation policy can be defined as a list of rules in a YAML file.

The YALM file can be specified with the command line argument --policy-file=FILE, or when using the Helm chart, populate rules: in values.

rules:
- pattern: regex
  replacement: template (optional)
  condition: policy (optional)
- ...

pattern is a regex pattern

replacement is a template comprised of the captured groups to use to generate the new image name in the mutating admission controller. When replacement is null or undefined, the image name is allowed without patching. Rules with this field are ignored by the validating admission controller, where mutation is not supported.

condition is a special condition to test before committing the replacement. Initially Always and Exists will be supported. Always is the default and performs the replacement regardless of any condition. Exists implements the behavior from #7; it only rewrites the image name if the target name exists in the remote registry.

Each rule will be evaluated in order, and if the list is exhausted without a match, the admission controller will return allowed: false.

This example allows all images without rewriting:

rules:
- pattern: .*

This example implements the default behavior of rewriting all image names to start with jainishshah17:

rules:
- pattern: ^jainishshah17/.*
- pattern: (.*)
  replacement: jainishshah17/$1

Or the same thing, but only if the image exists in jainishshah17/, and allowing all other images:

rules:
- pattern: ^jainishshah17/.*
- pattern: (.*)
  replacement: jainishshah17/$1
  condition: Exists
- pattern: .*

Allow the nginx image, but rewrite everything else:

rules:
- pattern: ^nginx(:.*)?$
- pattern: (?:jainishshah17)?(.*)
  replacement: jainishshah17/$1
