Quickstart¶
This is a quickstart guide to add functionality to the operator.
Getting Started¶
You’ll need a Kubernetes cluster to run against. You can use KIND to get a local cluster for testing, or run against a remote cluster.
Note: Your controller will automatically use the current context in your kubeconfig file (i.e. whatever cluster kubectl cluster-info
shows).
Running on the cluster¶
- Install Instances of Custom Resources:
- Build and push your image to the location specified by
IMG
:
- Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by
IMG
:
Uninstall CRDs¶
To delete the CRDs from the cluster:
Undeploy controller¶
UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:
Contributing¶
// TODO(user): Add detailed information on how you would like others to contribute to this project
How it works¶
This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern.
It uses Controllers, which provide a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources until the desired state is reached on the cluster.
Test It Out¶
- Install the CRDs into the cluster:
- Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):
NOTE: You can also run this in one step by running: make install run
Modifying the API definitions¶
If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using:
NOTE: Run make --help
for more information on all potential make
targets
