page_title: Consul Custom Resource Definitions (Beta)
sidebar_title: Custom Resource Definitions <sup>(Beta)</sup>
description: >-
Consul now supports managing configuration entries via Kubernetes Custom Resources.
These custom resource can be used to manage the configuration for workloads
deployed within the cluster.
---
# Custom Resource Definitions <sup>(beta)</sup>
## Overview
-> **This feature is currently in Beta.** It requires consul-helm >= 0.25.0 and
consul >= 1.8.4.
We support managing Consul [configuration entries](/docs/agent/config-entries)
via Kubernetes Custom Resources. Configuration entries are used to provide
cluster-wide defaults for the service mesh.
We currently support the follow configuration entry kinds:
- [`proxy-defaults`](/docs/agent/config-entries/proxy-defaults)
- [`service-defaults`](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-defaults)
- [`service-splitter`](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-splitter)
- [`service-router`](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-router)
- [`service-resolver`](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-resolver)
- [`service-intentions`](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-intentions) (requires Consul >= 1.9.0)
The following kinds are **not** currently supported:
- [`ingress-gateway`](/docs/agent/config-entries/ingress-gateway)
- [`terminating-gateway`](/docs/agent/config-entries/terminating-gateway)
## Installation
Ensure you have version `0.25.0` of the helm chart:
```shell-session
$ helm search repo hashicorp/consul
NAME CHART VERSION APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
hashicorp/consul 0.25.0 1.8.4 Official HashiCorp Consul Chart
```
If you don't have `0.25.0`, you will need to update your helm repository cache:
```shell-session
$ helm repo update
Hang tight while we grab the latest from your chart repositories...
...Successfully got an update from the "hashicorp" chart repository
Update Complete. ⎈Happy Helming!⎈
```
Next, you must configure consul-helm via your `values.yaml` to install the custom resource definitions
and enable the controller that acts on them:
```yaml
global:
name: consul
image: 'consul:1.9.0-beta1' # consul >= 1.8.4 must be used
imageK8S: 'hashicorp/consul-k8s:0.19.0'
controller:
enabled: true
connectInject:
enabled: true
```
Note that:
1. `controller.enabled: true` installs the CRDs and enables the controller.
1. `global.image` must be a Consul version `>= 1.8.4`, e.g. `consul:1.8.4` or `consul:1.9.0-beta1`.
1. `global.imageK8S` must be `>= 0.19.0`
1. Configuration entries are used to configure Consul service mesh so it's also
expected that `connectInject` will be enabled.
See [Install with Helm Chart](/docs/k8s/installation/install) for further installation
instructions.
## Usage
Once installed, we can use `kubectl` to create and manage Consul's configuration entries.
### Create
We can create configuration entries via `kubectl apply`.
```shell-session
$ cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceDefaults
metadata:
name: foo
spec:
protocol: "http"
EOF
servicedefaults.consul.hashicorp.com/foo created
```
See [Specifications](#specifications) for detailed schema documentation.
### Get
We can use `kubectl get [kind] [name]` to get the status of the configuration entry:
```shell-session
$ kubectl get servicedefaults foo
NAME SYNCED
foo True
```
The `SYNCED` status shows whether the configuration entry was successfully created
in Consul.
### Describe
We can use `kubectl describe [kind] [name]` to investigate the status of the
configuration entry. If `SYNCED` is false, the status will contain the reason
why.
```shell-session
$ kubectl describe servicedefaults foo
Status:
Conditions:
Last Transition Time: 2020-10-09T21:15:50Z
Status: True
Type: Synced
```
### Edit
We can use `kubectl edit [kind] [name]` to edit the configuration entry:
```shell
$ kubectl edit servicedefaults foo
# change protocol: http => protocol: tcp
servicedefaults.consul.hashicorp.com/foo edited
```
We can then use `kubectl get` to ensure the change was synced to Consul:
```shell-session
$ kubectl get servicedefaults foo
NAME SYNCED
foo True
```
### Delete
We can use `kubectl delete [kind] [name]` to delete the configuration entry:
```shell-session
$ kubectl delete servicedefaults foo
servicedefaults.consul.hashicorp.com "foo" deleted
```
We can then use `kubectl get` to ensure the configuration entry was deleted:
```shell-session
$ kubectl get servicedefaults foo
Error from server (NotFound): servicedefaults.consul.hashicorp.com "foo" not found
```
#### Delete Hanging
If running `kubectl delete` hangs without exiting, there may be
a requirement inside Consul that prevents that configuration entry from being
deleted. For example, if you set the protocol of your service to `http` via `ServiceDefaults` and then
create a `ServiceSplitter`, you won't be able to delete the `ServiceDefaults`.
This is because by deleting the `ServiceDefaults` config, you are setting the
protocol back to the default which is `tcp`. Since `ServiceSplitter` requires
that the service has an `http` protocol, Consul will not allow the `ServiceDefaults`
to be deleted since that would put Consul into a broken state.
In order to delete the `ServiceDefaults` config you would need to first delete
the `ServiceSplitter`.
## Specifications
### ProxyDefaults
[proxy-defaults](/docs/agent/config-entries/proxy-defaults)
configures global defaults across all proxies.
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ProxyDefaults
metadata:
name: global
spec:
config:
envoy_tracing_json: '{"http":{"name":"envoy.zipkin","config":{"collector_cluster":"zipkin","collector_endpoint":"/api/v1/spans","shared_span_context":false}}}'
expose:
checks: true
paths:
- listenerPort: 80
localPathPort: 42
path: /test/path
protocol: tcp
- listenerPort: 8080
localPathPort: 4201
path: /root/test/path
protocol: https
meshGateway:
mode: local
```
Notes:
1. There can only be one `ProxyDefaults` resource and its name **must** be `global`.
1. Keys under `spec.config` will need to use `snake_case`, not `camelCase`, because
this config is passed directly to Envoy which uses `snake_case`, e.g.
```yaml
spec:
config:
envoy_statsd_url: 'udp://127.0.0.1:8125'
```
1. See [proxy-defaults](/docs/agent/config-entries/proxy-defaults) for full
documentation on this config entry.
### ServiceDefaults
[service-defaults](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-defaults)
configures a specific service.
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceDefaults
metadata:
name: your-service-name
spec:
protocol: https
meshGateway:
mode: local
expose:
checks: true
paths:
- listenerPort: 80
path: /path
localPathPort: 9000
protocol: tcp
- listenerPort: 8080
path: /another-path
localPathPort: 9091
protocol: http2
externalSNI: external-sni
```
Notes:
1. The name of the service that this `ServiceDefaults` configures is set by
`metadata.name`.
1. See [service-defaults](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-defaults) for full
documentation on this config entry.
### ServiceIntentions <sup>(Beta)</sup>
[service-intentions](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-intentions)
configures traffic authorization for a destination service.
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceIntentions
metadata:
name: my-intention
spec:
destination:
name: your-service-name
sources:
- name: svc1
namespace: test
action: allow
permissions: []
description: allow access from svc1
- name: '*'
namespace: not-test
action: deny
permissions: []
description: disallow access from namespace not-test
- name: svc-2
namespace: bar
action: ''
permissions:
- action: allow
http:
pathExact: /foo
pathPrefix: /bar
pathRegex: /baz
header:
- name: header
present: true
exact: exact
prefix: prefix
suffix: suffix
regex: regex
invert: true
methods:
- GET
- PUT
description: an L7 config
```
Notes:
1. This resource is only supported in Consul 1.9.0.
1. Unlike the other configuration entries, the value of `metadata.name` does not
define which service the intention applies to. It can be set to any value
however we recommend setting it to the name of the destination service the
intention is configuring.
Instead, the name of the service this intention
is configuring is set in `spec.destination.name`.
1. Wildcard intentions can be created by setting `spec.destination.name` to `*` and/or
`spec.sources[].name` to `*`. For example to create a `deny` intention that applies
to all services:
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceIntentions
metadata:
name: deny-all
spec:
destination:
name: *
sources:
- name: *
action: deny
```
1. See [service-intentions](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-intentions) for full
documentation on this config entry.
### ServiceResolver
[service-resolver](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-resolver)
configures which service instances should satisfy Connect upstream discovery requests for a given service name.
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceResolver
metadata:

spec:
defaultSubset: default_subset
subsets:
subset1:
filter: filter1

datacenters:
- failover1_dc1
- failover1_dc2
failover2:
service: failover2
serviceSubset: failover_subset2
namespaces: failover_namespace2
datacenters:
- failover2_dc1
- failover2_dc2
connectTimeout: 1000000000

```
Notes:
1. The name of the service that this `ServiceResolver` configures is set by
`metadata.name`.
1. See [service-resolver](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-resolver) for full
documentation on this config entry.
### ServiceRouter
[service-router](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-router)
configures traffic routing and manipulation at networking layer 7 (e.g. HTTP).
```yaml
apiVersion: consul.hashicorp.com/v1alpha1
kind: ServiceRouter
metadata:
