Set up developer namespaces to use installed packages

You can choose either one of the following two approaches to create a Workload for your application by using the registry credentials specified, add credentials and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) rules to the namespace that you plan to create the Workload in:

Enable single user access.
Enable additional users access with Kubernetes RBAC.

If you plan to install Out of the Box Supply Chain with testing and scanning, follow additional steps to configure the developer namespace for that use case.

Enable single user access

Follow these steps to enable your current user to submit jobs to the Supply Chain:

To add read/write registry credentials to the developer namespace, run:
```
tanzu secret registry add registry-credentials --server REGISTRY-SERVER --username REGISTRY-USERNAME --password REGISTRY-PASSWORD --namespace YOUR-NAMESPACE
```
Where:
- YOUR-NAMESPACE is the name you give to the developer namespace. For example, use default for the default namespace.
- REGISTRY-SERVER is the URL of the registry. For Docker Hub, this must be https://index.docker.io/v1/. Specifically, it must have the leading https://, the v1 path, and the trailing /. For Google Container Registry (GCR), this is gcr.io. Based on the information used in Installing the Tanzu Application Platform Package and Profiles, you can use the same registry server as in ootb_supply_chain_basic - registry - server.
- REGISTRY-PASSWORD is the password of the registry. For GCR or Google Artifact Registry, this must be the concatenated version of the JSON key. For example: "$(cat ~/gcp-key.json)".
If you observe the following issue with the above command:
```
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x128 pc=0x2bcce00]
```
Use kubectl to create the secret:
```
kubectl create secret docker-registry registry-credentials --docker-server=REGISTRY-SERVER --docker-username=REGISTRY-USERNAME --docker-password=REGISTRY-PASSWORD -n YOUR-NAMESPACE
```
Note
This step is not required if you install Tanzu Application Platform on AWS with EKS and use IAM Roles for Kubernetes Service Accounts instead of secrets. You can specify the Role Amazon Resource Name (ARN) in the next step.

To add secrets, a service account to execute the supply chain, and RBAC rules to authorize the service account to the developer namespace, run:

cat <<EOF | kubectl -n YOUR-NAMESPACE apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: tap-registry
  annotations:
    secretgen.carvel.dev/image-pull-secret: ""
type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson
data:
  .dockerconfigjson: e30K
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: default
secrets:
  - name: registry-credentials
imagePullSecrets:
  - name: registry-credentials
  - name: tap-registry
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: RoleBinding
metadata:
  name: default-permit-deliverable
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: deliverable
subjects:
  - kind: ServiceAccount
    name: default
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: RoleBinding
metadata:
  name: default-permit-workload
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: workload
subjects:
  - kind: ServiceAccount
    name: default
EOF

Note
If you install Tanzu Application Platform on AWS with EKS and use IAM Roles for Kubernetes Service Accounts, you must annotate the ARN of the IAM Role and remove the registry-credentials secret. Your service account entry then looks like the following:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: default
  annotations:
    eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: <Role ARN>
imagePullSecrets:
  - name: tap-registry

Enable additional users access with Kubernetes RBAC

Follow these steps to enable additional users by using Kubernetes RBAC to submit jobs to the Supply Chain:

Enable single user access.
Choose either of the following options to give developers namespace-level access and view access to appropriate cluster-level resources:
- Option 1: Use the Tanzu Application Platform RBAC CLI plug-in (beta).
  
  To use the tanzu rbac plug-in to grant app-viewer and app-editor roles to an identity provider group, run:
```
tanzu rbac binding add -g GROUP-FOR-APP-VIEWER -n YOUR-NAMESPACE -r app-viewer
tanzu rbac binding add -g GROUP-FOR-APP-EDITOR -n YOUR-NAMESPACE -r app-editor
```
  Where:
  - YOUR-NAMESPACE is the name you give to the developer namespace.
  - GROUP-FOR-APP-VIEWER is the user group from the upstream identity provider that requires access to app-viewer resources on the current namespace and cluster.
  - GROUP-FOR-APP-EDITOR is the user group from the upstream identity provider that requires access to app-editor resources on the current namespace and cluster.
  For more information about tanzu rbac, see Bind a user or group to a default role.
  
  VMware recommends creating a user group in your identity provider’s grouping system for each developer namespace and then adding the users accordingly.
  
  Depending on your identity provider, you might need to take further action to federate user groups appropriately with your cluster. For an example of how to set up Azure Active Directory (AD) with your cluster, see Integrating Azure Active Directory.
- Option 2: Use the native Kubernetes YAML.
  
  To apply the RBAC policy, run:
```
cat <<EOF | kubectl -n YOUR-NAMESPACE apply -f -
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: RoleBinding
metadata:
  name: dev-permit-app-viewer
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: app-viewer
subjects:
  - kind: Group
    name: GROUP-FOR-APP-VIEWER
    apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
metadata:
  name: YOUR-NAMESPACE-permit-app-viewer
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: app-viewer-cluster-access
subjects:
  - kind: Group
    name: GROUP-FOR-APP-VIEWER
    apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: RoleBinding
metadata:
  name: dev-permit-app-editor
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: app-editor
subjects:
  - kind: Group
    name: GROUP-FOR-APP-EDITOR
    apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
metadata:
  name: YOUR-NAMESPACE-permit-app-editor
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: app-editor-cluster-access
subjects:
  - kind: Group
    name: GROUP-FOR-APP-EDITOR
    apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
EOF
```
  Where:
  - YOUR-NAMESPACE is the name you give to the developer namespace.
  - GROUP-FOR-APP-VIEWER is the user group from the upstream identity provider that requires access to app-viewer resources on the current namespace and cluster.
  - GROUP-FOR-APP-EDITOR is the user group from the upstream identity provider that requires access to app-editor resources on the current namespace and cluster.
  VMware recommends creating a user group in your identity provider’s grouping system for each developer namespace and then adding the users accordingly.
  
  Depending on your identity provider, you might need to take further action to federate user groups appropriately with your cluster. For an example of how to set up Azure Active Directory (AD) with your cluster, see Integrating Azure Active Directory.
  
  Rather than granting roles directly to individuals, VMware recommends using your identity provider’s user groups system to grant access to a group of developers. For an example of how to set up Azure AD with your cluster, see Integrating Azure Active Directory.
(Optional) Log in as a non-admin user, such as a developer, to see the effects of RBAC after the bindings are applied.

Additional configuration for testing and scanning

If you plan to install Out of the Box Supply Chains with Testing and Scanning, see the Developer Namespace section.
