cofidectl debug container

This is a debug container that is used by cofidectl to discover the SPIFFE SVID and trust bundle issued to a workload, as part of the cofidectl workload status command. It helps to debug a running workload in a cluster and ensure it's identity is as intended.

Cofide provide a ready-made container image used by cofidectl but you may wish to build your own.

Prerequisites

Building a cofidectl-debug-container binary requires:

Build

To run the unit tests and build the cofidectl-debug-container binary:

just build-release

How it works

With cofidectl, this container is executed in-cluster as a Kubernetes ephemeral container. The Go application interfaces with the SPIFFE Workload API to obtain the SPIFFE SVID and trust bundle issued to a workload. cofidectl prints this to the console - for example:

./cofidectl workload status foo --namespace demo --pod-name ping-pong-client-f6f6495b5-zb9bd --trust-zone cofide-a
✅ Complete: Successfully executed emphemeral container in ping-pong-client-f6f6495b5-zb9bd
