Configuring a Gcr.io Registry
You can use gcr.io as registry to host Camel K images. Usually, users may want to use gcr.io in combination with Google GKE.
In order to push images to gcr.io, you need to provide a valid key to Camel K. The best way to obtain a valid key is from the Google web console:
-
Make sure the project where you created the Kubernetes cluster is selected in the drop-down list
-
To avoid confusion, it’s suggested to use the "English" language in preferences of the Google Cloud console
-
Select "IAM & admin" from the navigation menu, then "Service accounts"
-
Create a new service account specifying the following id: "camel-k-builder"
-
You’ll be asked to select a role. It’s important to select the "Storage Admin" role from the "Storage" menu
-
Finish creating the service account
-
From the action menu of the service account you’ve created, create a key using the JSON format
A .json file with the key will be downloaded to your machine. You need to store that key in a Kubernetes secret.
Use the project id of your project on GKE. Usually this can be obtained from the connection string.
