Description

Referring to the Instances API it would be nice to set Authorized Keys from a secret.

Currently AuthorizedKeys is a *[]string. A new field AuthorizedKeysRef containing a secret reference (namespace, name and key) would be great.

Research direction

Start with the Instances API definition in apis/instance/v1alpha1/zz_instance_types.go at the referenced AuthorizedKeys field, then trace how instance fields are handled. Define the secret reference with namespace, name, and key, and verify that an instance can obtain AuthorizedKeys from that reference.
