I'm using External Secrets to sync my secrets from azure. And now I need a programmatic way to trigger the sync. With kubectl the command is
kubectl annotate es my-es force-sync=$(date +%s) --overwrite
So, I try to use k8s js sdk to do this. I can success fully get the External Secret
await crdApi.getNamespacedCustomObject("external-secrets.io", "v1beta1", "default", "externalsecrets", "my-es")
However, when I try to update it with patchNamespacedCustomObject, it always tells me "the body of the request was in an unknown format - accepted media types include: application/json-patch+json, application/merge-patch+json, application/apply-patch+yaml"
Here's my code
const kc = new k8s.KubeConfig();
kc.loadFromString(kubeConfig);
const crdApi = kc.makeApiClient(k8s.CustomObjectsApi);
let patch = [{
"op": "replace",
"path": "/metadata/annotations",
"value": {
"force-sync": "1663315075"
}
}];
await crdApi.patchNamespacedCustomObject("external-secrets.io", "v1beta1", "default", "externalsecrets", "my-es", patch);
I am referring their patch example here
