gcore-sfs-controller

This controller watches for nfs file shares in Gcore Cloud project and deploy storage classes and provisioner controller for each of them

Description

Gcore SFS Controller allows us to integrate our File Share Servers with the Kubernetes cluster automatically. When you create File Share and give access to your Kubernetes cluster, the controller configures a storage class for your k8s cluster and installs the nfs provisioner.

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).

Instalation

Install Gcore SFS Controller:

kubectl apply -f example/deploy/gcore-sfs-controller-install.yaml

Install CRD

  1. You must fill in the next values:

    spec:
    apiToken: <put your api token here>
    region: <put your region id here>
    project: <put your project id here>

    apiToken: Create API token in CLOUD UI.

    region: You can get a region id from our API: You will get a list of regions from the "v1/regions" handler, and then you can find the needed region by the "display_name" field.

  2. Install CRD

    kubectl apply -f example/deploy/nfsprovisioner.yaml

Create File Share

Now, you can create a File Share and the controller configures a storage class and installs the nfs-provisioner automatically.

Development

Running on the cluster

  1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:
kubectl apply -f config/samples/
  1. Build and push your image to the location specified by IMG:
make docker-build docker-push IMG=<some-registry>/gcore-sfs-controller:tag
  1. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:
make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/gcore-sfs-controller:tag

Uninstall CRDs

To delete the CRDs from the cluster:

make uninstall

Undeploy controller

UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:

make undeploy

How it works

This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern.

It uses Controllers, which provide a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources until the desired state is reached on the cluster.

Test It Out

  1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:
make install
  1. 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
