:seedling: Kubean
Kubean is a production-ready cluster lifecycle management toolchain based on kubespray and other cluster LCM engine.
Kubean is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation sandbox project.
:anchor: Awesome features
- Simplicity: Deploying of Kubean and powerful lifecycle management of kubernetes cluster implementing by declarative API.
- Offline Supported: Offline packages(os-pkgs, images, binarys) are released with the release. You won't have to worry about how to gather all the resources you need.
- Compatibility: Multi-arch delivery Supporting. Such as AMD, ARM with common Linux distributions. Also include Kunpeng with Kylin.
- Expandability: Allowing custom actions be added to cluster without any changes for Kubespray.
:surfing_man: Quick start
Killercoda tutorials
We created a scenario on killercoda, which is an online platform for interactive technique learning. You can try it in there.
Local install
-
Ensure that you have a Kubernetes cluster running, on which Helm is installed
-
Deploy kubean-operator
helm repo add kubean-io https://kubean-io.github.io/kubean-helm-chart/ helm install kubean kubean-io/kubean --create-namespace -n kubean-system
Then check kubean-operator status by running:
kubectl get pods -n kubean-system
-
Online deploy an all-in-one cluster with minimal configuration
-
A simple way is to use AllInOne.yml, replacing
<IP1>
,<USERNAME>
, and other strings with actual values. -
Start
kubeanClusterOps
to run the kubespray job.kubectl apply -f examples/install/1.minimal
-
Check the kubespray job status.
kubectl get job -n kubean-system
-
