ClusterSPIFFEID Custom Resource Definition

The ClusterSPIFFEID Custom Resource Definition (CRD) is a cluster-wide resource used to register workloads with SPIRE.

The ClusterSPIFFEID can target all workloads in the cluster, or can be optionally scoped to specific pods or namespaces via label selectors.

The controller registers the workloads with SPIRE, using templates to provide per-workload customization to various properties of the registration (e.g. the SPIFFE ID).

The definition can be found here.

ClusterSPIFFEIDSpec

Field Required Description
spiffeIDTemplate REQUIRED The template used to render the SPIFFE ID of the workload. See Templates.
podSelector OPTIONAL A label selector used to scope which workload pods this ClusterSPIFFEID targets
namespaceSelector OPTIONAL A label selector used to scope which workload namespaces this ClusterSPIFFEID targets
dnsNameTemplates OPTIONAL One or more templates used to render DNS names for the target workload. See Templates.
workloadSelectorTemplates OPTIONAL One or more templates used to render additional selectors for the target workload. See Templates.
ttl OPTIONAL Duration value indicating an upper bound on the time-to-live for SVIDs issued to target workload
federatesWith OPTIONAL One or more trust domain names that target workloads federate with
admin OPTIONAL Indicates whether the target workload is an admin workload (i.e. can access SPIRE administrative APIs)
downstream OPTIONAL Indicates that the entry describes a downstream SPIRE server.

ClusterSPIFFEIDStatus

Field Description
stats Statistics on what the ClusterSPIFFEID was applied to and any failures. See ClusterSPIFFEIDStats.

ClusterSPIFFEIDStats

Field Description
namespaceSelected How many namespaces were selected
namespacesIgnored How many namespaces were ignored
podsSelected How many pods were selected
podEntryRenderFailures How many failures were encountered rendering a registration entry for the pod
entriesMasked How many entries were masked because they were similar to other registration entries
entriesToSet How many entries are supposed to exist based on the targeted workloads
entryFailures How many entries were unable to be created/updated on SPIRE server

Templates

Many of the fields in the specification define templates. These templates are rendered using the Go standard library text template package.

The following data is available to the template:

Field Type Description
{{ .TrustDomain }} string The name of the trust domain the controller is operating for
{{ .ClusterName }} string The name of the cluster, as defined in the controller configuration
{{ .ClusterDomain }} string The domain of the cluster, as defined in the controller configuration
{{ .PodMeta }} ObjectMeta The pod metadata
{{ .PodSpec }} PodSpec The pod specification
{{ .NodeMeta }} ObjectMeta The node metadata for the node the pod is scheduled on
{{ .NodeSpec }} NodeSpec The node specification for the node the pod is scheduled on

Examples

  1. Apply an Istio-style SPIFFE ID to workloads running in namespaces with the "backend" label:

    apiVersion: spire.spiffe.io/v1alpha1
    kind: ClusterSPIFFEID
    metadata:
      name: backend-workloads
    spec:
      spiffeIDTemplate: "spiffe://domain.test/ns/{{ .PodMeta.Namespace }}/sa/{{ .PodSpec.ServiceAccountName }}"
      namespaceSelector:
        matchLabels:
          backend: "true"
  2. Federate workloads running the pods with the "banking" label with the "auditing" trust domain.

    apiVersion: spire.spiffe.io/v1alpha1
    kind: ClusterSPIFFEID
    metadata:
      name: backend-workloads
    spec:
      spiffeIDTemplate: "spiffe://domain.test/ns/{{ .PodMeta.Namespace }}/sa/{{ .PodSpec.ServiceAccountName }}"
      podSelector:
        matchLabels:
          banking: "true"
      federatesWith: ["auditing"]
  3. Add a DNS name:

    apiVersion: spire.spiffe.io/v1alpha1
    kind: ClusterSPIFFEID
    metadata:
      name: backend-workloads-with-dns-names
    spec:
      spiffeIDTemplate: "spiffe://domain.test/ns/{{ .PodMeta.Namespace }}/sa/{{ .PodSpec.ServiceAccountName }}"
      dnsNameTemplates: ["{{ .PodMeta.Name }}.{{ .PodMeta.Namespace }}.{{ .ClusterDomain }}"]
