config kubectl_Kubectl更新configMap

I am using the following command to create a configMap.

kubectl create configmap test --from-file=./application.properties --from-file=./mongo.properties --from-file=./logback.xml

Now, I have modified a value for a key from mongo.properties which i need to update in kubernetes.

Option1 :-

kubectl edit test

Here, it opens the entire file. But, I want to just update mongo.properties and hence want to see only the mongo.properties. Is there any other way?

Note :- I dont want to have mongo.properties in a separate configMap.

Thanks

No, you can't.

Replace in kubernetes will simply replace everything in that configmap. You can't just update one file or one single property in it.

However, if you check with the client Api, you will find if you create a configmap with lots of files. Then, those files will be stored as a HashMap, where key is file name by default, value is the file content encoded as a string. So you can write your own function based on existing key-value pair in HashMap.

This is what I found so far, if you find there is already existing method to deal with this issue, please let me know :)

FYI, if you want to update just one or few properties, it is possible if you use patch. However, it is a little bit hard to implement.

this and this may help
