kube-overlay-operator

This operator can create and manage simple overlay networks e.g. to connect to Pods via VPN or similar use cases. Networks are namespaced and can reuse the same CIDR.

Description

// TODO(user): An in-depth paragraph about your project and overview of use

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

1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:

kubectl apply -f config/samples/

2. Build and push your image to the location specified by IMG and IMG_TAG:

make docker-build-manager docker-build-sidecar docker-push-manager docker-push-sidecar IMG=<some-registry>/kube-overlay-operator IMG_TAG=tag

The resulting images will be ${IMG}/manager:${IMG_TAG} and ${IMG}/sidecar:${IMG_TAG}

3. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by IMG and IMG_TAG:

make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/kube-overlay-operator IMG_TAG=tag

Uninstall CRDs

To delete the CRDs from the cluster:

make uninstall

Undeploy controller

UnDeploy the controller to the cluster:

make undeploy

Contributing

How it works

This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern

It uses Controllers which provides a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources untile the desired state is reached on the cluster

Test It Out

1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:

make install

2. Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):

make run

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:

make manifests

NOTE: Run make --help for more information on all potential make targets
