Build a HA-Kubernetes cluster with load balancing and enhanced security using k3s via Ansible

Ansible Playbooks for K3s cluster with OpenELB as load balancer engine and wireguard for node to node encryption via Ansible.

ToDo

Deployment environment must have Ansible 2.4.0+ Master and nodes must have passwordless SSH access

First create a new directory based on the sample directory within the inventory directory:

cp -R inventory/sample inventory/my-cluster

Second, edit inventory/my-cluster/hosts.ini to match the system information gathered above. For example:

[master]
192.16.35.[12:14]

[node]
192.16.35.[15:17]

[k3s_cluster:children]
master
node

You probably need to edit inventory/my-cluster/group_vars/all.yml to match your environment.

Start provisioning of the cluster using the following command:

ansible-playbook site.yml -i inventory/my-cluster/hosts.ini

To get access to your Kubernetes cluster just

scp debian@master_ip:~/.kube/config ~/.kube/config

Build a Kubernetes cluster using Ansible with k3s. The goal is easily install a Kubernetes cluster on machines running:
