The password comes from `terraform.tfvars`, you might need to update the service url with the format `<svc>.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local` : +```hcl +resource "kubernetes_secret" "myth-miniflux-secrets" { + provider = kubernetes.myth + metadata { + name = "miniflux-secrets" + namespace = kubernetes_namespace.myth-miniflux.id + } + data = { + ADMIN_PASSWORD = var.miniflux-admin-password + DATABASE_URL = join("", [ "postgres://miniflux:${var.miniflux-postgres-password}", + "@postgresql.postgresql.svc.cluster.local/miniflux?sslmode=disable"]) + } + type = "Opaque" +} +``` + +### Deployment + +I could not write the deployment with the `kubernetes_deployment` terraform ressource, so it is a row manifest which imports a yaml syntax in hcl.
