Hello!
We are trying to set up the MongoDb blueprint in our test environment. The MongoDb replicaset there has no authentication activated.
Please advice how to customize the secret sections in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kanisterio/kanister/0.73.0/examples/stable/mongodb/blueprint-v2/mongo-blueprint.yaml at the following places:
actions.backup.phasess0].objects.mongosecret.name: <mongo-secret-name>
actions.restore.phasesh0].objects.mongosecret.name: <mongo-secret-name>
Hello
no need to modify the blueprint since you mentioned that you are not using authentication ( already existig secret ).
you just need to create a Blueprint resource, please review the commands below:
to deploy the blueprint in kasten-io:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kanisterio/kanister/0.73.0/examples/stable/mongodb/blueprint-v2/mongo-blueprint.yaml > mongo-blueprint.yaml
kubectl apply -f mongo-blueprint.yaml --namespace kasten-io
Once the Blueprint is created, we will have to annotate the StatefulSet with the correct annotation to instruct K10 to use the Blueprint while performing operations on this MongoDB instance.
kubectl annotate statefulset <mongodb_satatefulset_NAME> kanister.kasten.io/blueprint='mongodb-blueprint' --namespace=mongodb-logical
P.S i suppose your secret name = statefulset name
Here is example from my test lab:
pahmedhagag@ahmeds-MacBook-Pro ~]$ k get statefulsets -n mongodb-logical
NAME READY AGE
mongo-logical-mongodb 2/2 23m
mongo-logical-mongodb-arbiter 1/1 23m
-ahmedhagag@ahmeds-MacBook-Pro ~]$ k get secrets -n mongodb-logical
NAME TYPE DATA AGE
default-token-47tg5 kubernetes.io/service-account-token 3 23m
mongo-logical-mongodb Opaque 2 23m
mongo-logical-mongodb-token-rkqk7 kubernetes.io/service-account-token 3 23m
sh.helm.release.v1.mongo-logical.v1 helm.sh/release.v1 1 23m
tahmedhagag@ahmeds-MacBook-Pro ~]$
Thanks!

No! I do not have a MongoDb secret because MongoDb does not use authentication. It is just an internal test cluster!
In the meantime I created a workaround:
Apply a secret with dummy passwords and replace the username and password parameters in the dump_cmd in blueprint.yaml
If you are just using it to test the blueprint backup, you can update the blueprint to remove the mongosecret object and modify the dump_cmd accordingly.
But it is not generally advisable to have an unauthenticated database.

That is absolutely right!
