provider-kubernetes
is a Crossplane Provider that enables deployment and management
of arbitrary Kubernetes objects on clusters typically provisioned by Crossplane:
- A
Provider
resource type that only points to a credentialsSecret
. - An
Object
resource type that is to manage Kubernetes Objects. - A managed resource controller that reconciles
Object
typed resources and manages arbitrary Kubernetes Objects.
If you would like to install provider-kubernetes
without modifications, you may do
so using the Crossplane CLI in a Kubernetes cluster where Crossplane is
installed:
kubectl crossplane install provider crossplanecontrib/provider-kubernetes:main
You may also manually install provider-kubernetes
by creating a Provider
directly:
apiVersion: pkg.crossplane.io/v1
kind: Provider
metadata:
name: provider-kubernetes
spec:
package: "crossplanecontrib/provider-kubernetes:main"
See the header of go.mod
for the minimum supported version of Go.
Start a local development environment with Kind where crossplane
is installed:
make
make local-dev
Now you can either run the controller locally or in-cluster.
Run controller locally against the cluster:
make run
Since the controller is running outside the Kind cluster, you need to make the API server accessible to the controller. You can do this by running a proxy:
# on a separate terminal
sudo kubectl proxy --port=8081
See below for how to properly setup the RBAC for the locally running controller.
Run controller in-cluster:
make local-deploy
See below for how to properly setup the RBAC for the locally running controller.
-
Prepare provider config for the local cluster:
-
If provider kubernetes running in the cluster (e.g. provider installed with crossplane or using
make local-deploy
):SA=$(kubectl -n crossplane-system get sa -o name | grep provider-kubernetes | sed -e 's|serviceaccount\/|crossplane-system:|g') kubectl create clusterrolebinding provider-kubernetes-admin-binding --clusterrole cluster-admin --serviceaccount="${SA}" kubectl apply -f examples/provider/config-in-cluster.yaml
-
If provider kubernetes running outside the cluster (e.g. running locally with
make run
)KUBECONFIG=$(kind get kubeconfig --name local-dev | sed -e 's|server:\s*.*$|server: https://localhost:8081|g') kubectl -n crossplane-system create secret generic cluster-config --from-literal=kubeconfig="${KUBECONFIG}" kubectl apply -f examples/provider/config.yaml
-
Now you can create
Object
resources with provider reference, see sample object.yaml.kubectl create -f examples/object/object.yaml
To delete the local kind cluster:
make controlplane.down
