Kubeye

Kubeye aims to find various problems on Kubernetes, such as application misconfiguration, cluster components unhealthy and node problems(using Node-Problem-Detector). Besides predefined rules, it also supports custom defined rules.

Architecture

Kubeye gets cluster diagnostic data by calling the Kubernetes API, by regular matching of key error messages in logs and by rule matching of container syntax. See Architecture for details.

How to use

• Install Kubeye on your machine

  • Download pre built executables from Releases.

  • Or you can build from source code

  git clone https://github.com/kubesphere/kubeye.git
  cd kubeye 
  make install

• [Optional] Install Node-problem-Detector

Note: This line will install npd on your cluster, only required if you want detailed report.

ke install npd

• Run kubeye

Add your own check rules

Add custom npd rule

• Install NPD with ke install npd
• Edit configmap kube-system/node-problem-detector-config with kubectl,

 kubectl edit cm -n kube-system node-problem-detector-config

• Add exception log information under the rule of configMap, rules follow regular expressions.

Fault with your own custom best practice rules

• Prepare a rule yaml, for example, the following rule will validate your pod spec to make sure image are only from authorized registries.

checks:
  imageFromUnauthorizedRegistry: warning

customChecks:
  imageFromUnauthorizedRegistry:
    promptMessage: When the corresponding rule does not match. Show that image from an unauthorized registry.
    category: Images
    target: Container
    schema:
      '$schema': http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema
      type: object
      properties:
        image:
          type: string
          not:
            pattern: ^quay.io

• Save the above rule as a yaml, for example, rule.yaml.
• Run kubeye with rule.yaml

root:# ke diags -f rule.yaml --kubeconfig ~/.kube/config
