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).

1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:

kubectl apply -f config/samples/

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

make docker-build docker-push IMG=<some-registry>/operator:tag

3. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:

make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/operator:tag

To delete the CRDs from the cluster:

make uninstall

UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:

make undeploy

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.

1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:

make install

2. 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

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
