I have been trying to play around with creating secrets for Kubernetes cluster using the python client. I keep getting an error that says
Traceback (most recent call last):

Reason: Bad Request

This is my code that I am trying to execute to create a secret.
from __future__ import print_function
import time
import kubernetes.client
from pprint import pprint
from kubernetes import client, config
config.load_kube_config()
v1 = client.CoreV1Api()
namespace = 'kube-system'
metadata = {'name': 'pk-test-tls', 'namespace': 'kube-system'}
data= {'tls.crt': '###BASE64 encoded crt###', 'tls.key': '###BASE64 encoded Key###'}
api_version = 'v1'
kind = 'none'
body = kubernetes.client.V1Secret(api_version, data , kind, metadata,
type='kubernetes.io/tls')
api_response = v1.create_namespaced_secret(namespace, body)
pprint(api_response)
What am I missing here?
Almost everything that you have written is alright but pay attention to the message received from kube-apiserver:
HTTP response body: {"kind":"Status","apiVersion":"v1","metadata":{},"status":"Failure","message":"none in version "v1" cannot be handled as a Secret: no kind "none" is registered for version "v1"","reason":"BadRequest","code":400}
Especially no kind "none". Is it just typo or do you have something on your mind here?
You have list of kinds here https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/api-conventions.md#types-kinds
If you change kind to "Secret" then everything will be working fine.
