The API7 Ingress Controller allows you to run the API7 Gateway as a Kubernetes Ingress to handle inbound traffic for a Kubernetes cluster. It dynamically configures and manages the API7 Gateway using Gateway API resources.

Document

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • go version v1.22.0+
  • docker version 17.03+.
  • kubectl version v1.11.3+.
  • Access to a Kubernetes v1.11.3+ cluster.

To Deploy on the cluster

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

make build-image

NOTE: This image ought to be published in the personal registry you specified. And it is required to have access to pull the image from the working environment. Make sure you have the proper permission to the registry if the above commands don’t work.

Install the CRDs & Gateway API into the cluster:

make install

Deploy the Manager to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:

make deploy #IMG=api7/api7-ingress-controller:dev

NOTE: If you encounter RBAC errors, you may need to grant yourself cluster-admin privileges or be logged in as admin.

Delete the APIs(CRDs) from the cluster:

make uninstall

UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:

make undeploy

Project Distribution

Following are the steps to build the installer and distribute this project to users.

  1. Build the installer for the image built and published in the registry:
make build-installer # IMG=api7/api7-ingress-controller:dev

NOTE: The makefile target mentioned above generates an 'install.yaml' file in the dist directory. This file contains all the resources built with Kustomize, which are necessary to install this project without its dependencies.

  1. Using the installer

Users can just run kubectl apply -f to install the project, i.e.:

kubectl apply -f dist/install.yaml
