This repository only gets important security updates. I recommend to use the Kubernetes Operator in the future.

Mongo Kubernetes Replica Set Sidecar

This project is as a PoC to setup a MongoDB replica set using Kubernetes. It should handle resizing of any type and be resilient to the various conditions both MongoDB and Kubernetes can find themselves in.

It's a fork of cvallance/mongo-k8s-sidecar with (many) changes and improvements.

How to use it

The docker image is hosted on Docker Hub and can be found here: https://hub.docker.com/r/morphy/k8s-mongo-sidecar

An example Kubernetes replication controller can be found in the examples directory on GitHub: https://github.com/morphy2k/k8s-mongo-sidecar

Settings

Environment Variable	Required	Default	Description
KUBERNETES_CLUSTER_DOMAIN	NO	cluster.local	This allows the specification of a custom cluster domain name. Used for the creation of a stable network ID of the k8s Mongo pods. An example could be: "kube.local".
KUBERNETES_SERVICE_NAME	YES	mongo	This should point to the MongoDB Kubernetes (headless) service that identifies all the pods.
KUBERNETES_NAMESPACE	NO		The namespace to look up pods in. Not setting it will search for pods in all namespaces.
KUBERNETES_POD_LABELS	YES		This should be a be a comma separated list of key values the same as the podTemplate labels. See above for example.
MONGO_PORT	NO	27017	Configures the mongo port, allows the usage of non-standard ports.
MONGO_CONFIG_SVR	NO	false	Configures the configsvr variable when initializing the replicaset.
MONGO_DATABASE	NO	local	Configures the mongo authentication database
MONGO_USERNAME	NO		Configures the mongo username for authentication
MONGO_PASSWORD	NO		Configures the mongo password for authentication
MONGO_AUTH_SOURCE	NO	admin	Configures the mongo database for authentication
MONGO_AUTH_MECHANISM	NO	SCRAM-SHA-1	Configures the mongo authentication mechanism
MONGO_TLS	NO	false	Enable MongoDB TLS connection
MONGO_TLS_CA	NO		Path to TLS CA Certificate
MONGO_TLS_CERT	NO		Path to TLS Certificate
MONGO_TLS_KEY	NO		Path to TLS Key
MONGO_TLS_PASS	NO		TLS Certificate pass phrase
MONGO_TLS_CRL	NO		Path to TLS Certificate revocation list
MONGO_TLS_IDENTITY_CHECK	NO	true	Server identity check during TLS. Checks server's hostname against the certificate
SIDECAR_SLEEP_SECONDS	NO	5	This is how long to sleep between work cycles.
SIDECAR_UNHEALTHY_SECONDS	NO	30	This is how many seconds a replica set member has to get healthy before automatically being removed from the replica set.

MongoDB TLS

The following is an example of how you would update the mongo command enabling TLS and using a certificate obtained from a secret and mounted at /data/tls/mongo/

Command

        - name: my-mongo
          image: mongo
          command:
            - mongod
          args:
            - "--replSet=rs0"
            - "--tlsMode=requireTLS"
            - "--tlsCAFile=/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt"
            - "--tlsCertificateKeyFile=/data/tls/mongo/full.pem"
            - "--bind_ip=0.0.0.0"

Environment variables, Volume & Volume Mounts

          volumeMounts:
            - name: mongo-persistent-storage
              mountPath: /data/db
            - name: mongo-tls
              mountPath: /data/tls/mongo
        - name: mongo-sidecar
          image: morphy/k8s-mongo-sidecar
          env:
            - name: KUBERNETES_POD_LABELS
              value: "role=mongo,environment=prod"
            - name: MONGO_TLS
              value: "true"
            - name: MONGO_TLS_CA
              value: "/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt"
            - name: "MONGO_TLS_CERT"
              value: "/data/tls/mongo/cert.pem"
            - name: MONGO_TLS_KEY
              value: "/data/tls/mongo/key.pem"
          volumeMounts:
            - name: mongo-tls
              mountPath: /data/tls/mongo
      volumes:
        - name: mongo-tls
          secret:
            secretName: mongo-tls
            defaultMode: 256 # file permission 0400

Creating Secret for TLS

Generate a certificate with your Kubernetes cluster as CA that is explained here
Merge your certificate and key named as cert.pem and key.pem into a single file

cat cert.pem key.pem > full.pem

Push the secrets to your cluster

kubectl create secret generic mongo-tls \
--from-file=full.pem \
--from-file=key.pem \
--from-file=cert.pem
