docker-test-irsa

A Docker image for testing IRSA using the aws-cli

Pre-requisites

You are already running an AWS EKS cluster.
You have an IAM OpenID Connect Server created by EKS.
You have created a IAM role for IRSA testing.

The IAM role should have a Trust relationship that looks like this:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": {
        "Federated": "arn:aws:iam::<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>:oidc-provider/oidc.eks.<AWS_REGION>.amazonaws.com/id/<GUID>"
      },
      "Action": "sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity",
      "Condition": {
        "StringEquals": {
          "oidc.eks.<AWS_REGION>.amazonaws.com/id/<GUID>:sub": "system:serviceaccount:test-irsa-ns:test-sa"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Replace <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>, <AWS_REGION>, and test-irsa-ns (Namespace) and test-sa (ServiceAccount) with your actual values.

Install instructions

Copy the full ARN for your IRSA test role.
Open test-irsa.yaml in a text editor and replace <FULL_ARN> with the ARN you copied above.
Apply test-irsa.yaml to your EKS cluster:

kubectl apply -f test-irsa.yaml

This will create a namespace called test-irsa-ns with a pod inside.

Test instructions

Get inside the pod

POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pod -n test-irsa-ns --no-headers -o custom-columns='NAME:.metadata.name')
kubectl --namespace test-irsa-ns exec --stdin --tty $POD_NAME -- /bin/bash

Find your IAM identity

aws sts get-caller-identity

You should then see something like:

{
    "UserId": "<USER_ID>",
    "Account": "<ACCOUNT_ID>",
    "Arn": "arn:aws:sts::<ACCOUNT_ID>:assumed-role/TestIRSA/botocore-session-<SESSION_ID>"
}

Removal instructions

kubectl delete -f test-irsa.yaml
