RELEASE VERSION

My apologies, when creating the release, 0.12.0 failed. The branch and tag however, have been created and I was unable to delete them. Thus, the version has been increased to 0.12.1 after the fix and now that's the current version. I hand updated the release notes to include everyone into the changes.

BREAKING CHANGES

The following breaking changes have been introduced into this release:

  • Permission update for AWS provider adding BulkFetch when getting multiple secrets ( significant API reduce but comes with adding a permission for bulk endpoint )
  • fixed a typo for a generator in the json tag where before it was ecrRAuthorizationTokenSpec with an extra R
  • We standardized the GCP Secrets Manager Metadata structure for PushSecrets ( be aware that existing manifests will stop working until updated to the standardized version ) for more info see https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/pull/4210

v0.11.0

Compare Source

Deprecation of OLM Releases

As of 0.11.0 is the last release available for OLM until further notice. Depending on the way this goes, we might still have OLM support (ideally with a properly built operator for that), but for sure in a different support scheme as to not overload maintainers anymore. Also a valid note - you can still use 0.11.0 OLM release and the newest ESO images, you just need to set image.tag appropriately in your setup.

Kubernetes API load and significant decrease

A new way of reconciling external secrets has been added with pull request #​4086.

This significantly reduces the number of API calls that we make to the kubernetes API server.

  1. Memory usage might increase if you are not already using --enable-secrets-caching
    1. If you are using --enable-secrets-caching and want to decrease memory usage at the expense of slightly higher API usage, you can disable it and only enable --enable-managed-secrets-caching (which is the new default)
  2. In ALL cases (even when CreationPolicy is Merge), if a data key in the target Secret was created by the ExternalSecret, and it no longer exists in the template (or data/dataFrom), it will be removed from the target secret:
    1. This might cause some peoples secrets to be "cleaned of data keys" when updating to 0.11.
    2. Previously, the behaviour was undefined, and confusing because it was sort of broken when the template feature was added.
    3. The one exception is that ALL the data suddenly becomes empty and the DeletionPolicy is retain, in which case we will not even report and error, just change the SecretSynced message to explain that the secret was retained.
  3. When CreationPolicy is Owner, we now will NEVER retain any keys and fully calculate the "desired state" of the target secret each loop:
    1. This means that some peoples secrets might have keys removed when updating to 0.11.

Generators and ClusterGenerator

We added ClusterGenerators and Generator caching as well. This might create some problems in the way generators are defined now.

CRD Admission Restrictions

All of the CRDs now have proper kubebuilder markers for validation. This might surprise someone leaving out some data that was essentially actually required or expected in a certain format. This is now validated in #​4104.
