Introduction Combining multiple Kubernetes secrets into a single directory can streamline secret management in your applications. This guide walks you through the process of achieving this in Kubernetes, ensuring efficient and organized secret management. Creating Secrets First, create your secrets using the kubectl create secret command: kubectl create secret generic secret-one --from-literal=key1=value1 kubectl create secret generic secret-two --from-literal=key2=value2 Each secret can contain multiple key-value pairs, and you can add more secrets as needed.

Introduction Knowing the type of a file you’re working with is not just a matter of curiosity — it’s often a necessity. This is especially true when you’re deciding whether or not a particular operation can be carried out on that file. Go, with its comprehensive standard library, offers a straightforward approach to identifying a file’s MIME type, ensuring that developers have the tools they need to make informed decisions about file manipulation.

Introduction In this post, we’ll take a quick look at URL validation using Golang. It’s common to implement URL validation as a task within a HTTP request pipeline, typically as middleware. There are many different definitions of “validation”. For the purpose of this article, we will simply validate that a URL conforms to a particular text pattern. I often see people (mistakenly) use URL and URI interchangeably. URL is actually is a sub-type of URI.

Despite being a great language, PowerShell is not impervious to errors. Errors that occur within your code can stop it’s execution or even cause unexpected changes in the resources that your script is managing. Learning to handle these errors gracefully is the foundation of defensive coding. Today, we’ll take a quick look at how PowerShell handles errors with Try-Catch-Finally blocks. They allow you to gracefully handle errors and perform cleanup operations, ensuring that your script doesn’t crash when the unexpected occurs.

This will be a quick and dirty post, so please forgive any spelling/grammar mistakes. I was writing a little CLI tool in Golang to track todo items. Just a dumb little app to help hone my skills a bit, but still something useful that serves a purpose to me. I don’t write a ton of code at work (mostly just scripting/pipelines when I do), so I’m constantly working on something like this in my spare time.

I was recently involved with troubleshooting some API’s hosted in Kubernetes throwing http/502’s. This was incredibly difficult to diagnose because it seemingly happened at random, and I had never encountered anything like this. Being that I had never dealt with this in the past, and I (nor my team) was able to figure it out within a reasonable amount of time, I turned to google. My searches resulted in various blogs and SO posts of other people experiencing similar issues, but none of their resolutions worked for us.
