Kubebuilder to build your first Kubernetes Operator

[toc]

TL;DR

Install Go

# https://golang.org/doc/install
# Download Go
wget -c https://dl.google.com/go/go1.16.7.linux-amd64.tar.gz

# Remove the old version and install the new version
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go && sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.16.7.linux-amd64.tar.gz

# Add /usr/local/go/bin to the PATH environment variable
# Add GOPATH=$HOME/go
# Add the following line to your $HOME/.profile
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
# Apply the change
source ~/.profile

# Verify Go version
go version

Install Kubebuilder

# download kubebuilder and install locally.
curl -L -o kubebuilder https://go.kubebuilder.io/dl/latest/$(go env GOOS)/$(go env GOARCH)
chmod +x kubebuilder && mv kubebuilder /usr/local/bin/

Create Project

# Initlize go mod
go mod init github.com/wangxin311/kubebuilder-imoocpod

# Initilize kubebuilder framework
kubebuilder init --domain wangxin311.github.com --repo github.com/wangxin311/kubebuilder-imoocpod --skip-go-version-check

# Create Kubevirt API, choose yes
kubebuilder create api --group batch --version v1alpha1 --kind ImoocPod

And now kubebuilder has been generated the following files for us.

Opeator Type

In this example, we are going to create a CRD specify the number of busybox pod you'd like to run, when CRD instance updated, the number of POD will be updated accordingly.

CRD type: api/v1alpha1/imoocpod_types.go

// ImoocPodSpec defines the desired state of ImoocPod
type ImoocPodSpec struct {
        // INSERT ADDITIONAL SPEC FIELDS - desired state of cluster
        // Important: Run "make" to regenerate code after modifying this file

        // Foo is an example field of ImoocPod. Edit imoocpod_types.go to remove/update
        Replicas int `json:"replicas"`
}

// ImoocPodStatus defines the observed state of ImoocPod
type ImoocPodStatus struct {
        // INSERT ADDITIONAL STATUS FIELD - define observed state of cluster
        // Important: Run "make" to regenerate code after modifying this file
        Replicas int      `json:"replicas"`
        PodNames []string `json:"podNames"`
}

ImoocPodSpec means desired state and ImoocPodStatus means the actual state.
