Use the

secret

command group to render Kubernetes

Secret

manifests from your import file and apply them to your cluster.

Generate secrets

Create Kubernetes secret YAML files from your secret definitions. For the import file format, refer to

secrets.import.example.yaml

which is shipped in the release package.


vpctl secret generate --import secrets.import.yaml --use-defaults

Parameters:

```
--import
```
: Path to the secrets import file. See
```
secrets.import.example.yaml
```
for the format.
```
--use-defaults
```
: Use default values or auto-generate values without prompts (non-interactive mode). If a required field has no default or auto-generate option, the tool writes
```
TBD
```
and logs a warning so you can update it before deployment.
```
--output
```
: Output file path (defaults to
```
secrets.yaml
```
).
```
--name
```
: Generate only the specified secret by name.
```
--extracted-release
```
: Path to the extracted release directory (defaults to
```
./extracted-release
```
).
```
--clean-output
```
: Clear the output file before generating (default: false).
```
--skip-version-check
```
: Skip the vpctl version compatibility check against the release package.
```
--persist <path>
```
: Save generated values to an import-format file at
```
<path>
```
for reuse in subsequent runs. The path is required and has no default: in vpctl 0.11.0 and newer, passing the bare flag exits with an error. On later runs, the tool loads the persisted file and reuses existing values without regenerating them.

Example:


vpctl secret generate --import secrets.import.yaml --use-defaults --output ./generated-secrets.yaml

Apply the generated secrets to your Kubernetes cluster:


vpctl secret deploy

Common options:

```
--file
```
: Path to the secrets YAML file (defaults to
```
secrets.yaml
```
).
```
--dry-run
```
: Preview the kubectl command without executing it.
```
--context
```
: Kubernetes context to use.
```
--namespace
```
: Kubernetes namespace (overrides the namespace in the secret YAML).

Example:


vpctl secret deploy --file ./generated-secrets.yaml --namespace production --dry-run
