MAGENTO 2-PWA KUBERNETES: How to put your elastic search behind username and password

For this illustration I am using Magernto, Vue Store Front PWA, Elastic Search and Kubernetes.

First goto console and type

sudo htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/.htpasswd_elastic username

This will ask you to enter the password. Enter the password which you wish to set for elastic authentication. After this is done run below command:

cat /etc/apache2/.htpasswd_elastic

Copy the contents of the file.

Now, In your nginx.yaml file add the following:

	data:
	htpasswd-elastic: |
	<<paste the contents of \etc\apache2\.htpasswd-elastic>>
	default.conf: |
	server {
	location /elastic/ {
	auth_basic "Authentication Required";
	auth_basic_user_file /etc/apache2/.htpasswd-elastic;
	}
	}
	spec:
	spec:
	containers:
	ports:
	- mountPath: /etc/apache2/.htpasswd-elastic
	name: config
	subPath: htpasswd-elastic
	volumes:
	- name: config
	configMap:
	- key: htpasswd-elastic
	path: htpasswd-elastic
