Getting Started

This is Getting Started Installation guide with minikube. This Guide is not for production, but for developer only.

Overview

Cloudforet-Minikube Architecture

Cloudforet-Minikube Architecture

Not Support

Currently WIP in supporting ARM64 architecture! :)

  • ARM64 architecture (We do not support minikube with ARM64 CPU, such as MacBook M2)

Prerequisites

  • AWS EC2 VM (Intel/AMD CPU)
  • Docker/Docker Desktop
    • If you don't have Docker installed, minikube won't run properly.
    • Highly recommend installing Docker Desktop based on your OS.
  • Minikube
    • Requires minimum Kubernetes version of 1.21+.
  • Kubectl
  • Helm
    • Requires minimum Helm version of 3.2.0+.
    • If you want to learn more about Helm, refer to this.

Before diving into the Cloudforet Installation process, start minikube by running the command below.

minikube start --driver=docker --memory=4096mb

Installation

You can install the Cloudforet by the following the steps below.

1) Setting up Helm Chart Repository

This command adds Helm repository.

helm repo add cloudforet https://cloudforet-io.github.io/charts

This command updates repositories basd on latest version of chart repository.

helm repo update

This command list contents of the repository.

helm search repo

2) Create Namespaces

If you want to use only one namespace, you don't have to create the spaceone-plugin namespace.

kubectl create ns spaceone

kubectl create ns spaceone-plugin

3) Create Role and RoleBinding

First, download the rbac.yaml file.

The rbac.yaml file basically serves as a means to regulate access to computer or network resources based on the roles of individual users. For more information about RBAC Authorization in Kubernetes, refer to this.

If you are used to downloading files via command-line, run this command to download the file.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudforet-io/charts/master/examples/rbac.yaml -O rbac.yaml

Next, execute the following command.

kubectl apply -f rbac.yaml -n spaceone-plugin

4) Install Cloudforet Chart

This command basically let Helm search for the chart named cloudforet in the repository named spaceone. For more information about what chart is, refer to this.

helm install cloudforet cloudforet/spaceone -n spaceone

After executing the above command, check the status of the pod.

Scheduler pods are in CrashLoopBackOff or Error state. This is because the setup is not complete.

kubectl get pod -n spaceone

5) Initialize the Configuration

First, download the initializer.yaml file.

For more information about the initializer, please refer to the spaceone-initializer.

If you are used to downloading files via command-line, run this command to download the file.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudforet-io/charts/master/examples/initializer.yaml -O initializer.yaml

And execute the following command.

helm install initializer cloudforet/spaceone-initializer -n spaceone -f initializer.yaml

6) Set the Helm Values and Upgrade the Chart

Complete the initialization, you can get the system token from the initializer pod logs.

To figure out the pod name for the initializer, run this command first to show all pod names for namespace spaceone.

kubectl get pods -n spaceone

Then, among the pods shown copy the name of the pod that starts with initialize-spaceone.

Get the token by getting the log information of the pod with the name you found above.

kubectl logs initialize-spaceone-fsqen-74x7v -n spaceone

Create the values.yaml file and edit the values. There is only one item that need to be updated.

For EC2 users: put in your EC2 server's public IP instead of 127.0.0.1 for both CONSOLE_API and CONSOLE_API_V2 ENDPOINT.

  • TOKEN
console:
  production_json:
    CONSOLE_API:

    CONSOLE_API_V2:

    TOKEN: 'TOKEN_VALUE_FROM_ABOVE'   # Change the system token

After editing the values.yaml file, upgrade the helm chart.

helm upgrade cloudforet cloudforet/spaceone -n spaceone -f values.yaml

After upgrading, delete the pods related to the namespace named spaceone. After upgrading, delete the pods in spaceone namespace that have the label app.kubernetes.io/instance and value cloudforet.

kubectl delete po -n spaceone -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=cloudforet

7) Check the status of the pods

kubectl get pod -n spaceone

If all pods are in Running state, the setup is complete.

Port-forwarding

Installing Cloudforet on minikube doesn't provide any Ingress objects such as Amazon ALB or NGINX ingress controller. We can use kubectl port-forward instead.

Run the following commands for port forwarding.

# CLI commands
kubectl port-forward -n spaceone svc/console 8080:80 --address='0.0.0.0' &

kubectl port-forward -n spaceone svc/console-api 8081:80 --address='0.0.0.0' &

kubectl port-forward -n spaceone svc/console-api-v2-rest 8082:80 --address='0.0.0.0' &

Start Cloudforet
