A simple setup for runnnig kubernetes locally

vgk8s

A pretty crude kubernetes cluster built for local dev.

Requirements:

• vagrant
• virtualbox w/ ubuntu xenial image

Not other dependencies.

Uses:

• kubeadm
• weave

to build a master and N (default 2) nodes. Installs dashboard.

Instructions

• Install virtualbox and vagrant
• vagrant up
• wait...

You can then connect using the admin.conf file that was generated when the master started.

ex: kubectl --kubeconfig=admin.conf get nodes
NAME      STATUS    AGE
master    Ready     7m
node-1    Ready     4m
node-2    Ready     2m

To access the dashboard:

kubectl --kubeconfig=admin.conf proxy &
open http://localhost:8001/ui

Tested on MacOSX only but should be fine on any Linux box too.

Future (maybe)

Then again, this version fulfils its purpose as I can quickly start a project, wipe and start over to the next. Things I may improve someday:

• replace those shell scripts with Ansible eventually
• allow selection of network plugin
• multiple masters
• more customizations like preinstalling services
