Overview

Cloudforet-Minikube Architecture

Prerequisites

AWS EC2 VM (Intel/AMD/ARM CPU)

Recommended instance type: t3.large (2 cores, 8 GB Memory, 30GB EBS)

Docker/Docker Desktop
- If you don't have Docker installed, minikube will return an error as minikube uses docker as the driver.
- Highly recommend installing Docker Desktop based on your OS.
Minikube
- Requires minimum Kubernetes version of 1.21+.
Kubectl
Helm
- Requires minimum Helm version of 3.11.0+.
- 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=5000mb

If you encounter Unable to resolve the current Docker CLI context "default" error, check if the docker daemon is running.

Installation

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

For Cloudforet v1.12.x, we DONOT provide helm charts online. You can download the helm chart from the Cloudforet Github

1) Download Helm Chart Repository

This command wll download Helm repository.

# Set working directory
mkdir cloudforet-deployment
cd cloudforet-deployment
wget https://github.com/cloudforet-io/charts/releases/download/spaceone-1.12.12/spaceone-1.12.12.tgz
tar zxvf spaceone-1.12.12.tgz

2) Create Namespaces

kubectl create ns cloudforet

kubectl create ns cloudforet-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 cloudforet-plugin

4) Install Cloudforet Chart

Download default YAML file for helm chart.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudforet-io/charts/master/examples/values/release-1-12.yaml -O release-1-12.yaml
helm install cloudforet spaceone -n cloudforet -f release-1-12.yaml

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 cloudforet

To execute the commands below, every POD except xxxx-scheduler-yyyy must have a Running status.

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.

wget https://github.com/cloudforet-io/charts/releases/download/spaceone-initializer-1.3.3/spaceone-initializer-1.3.3.tgz
tar zxvf spaceone-initializer-1.3.3.tgz
helm install initializer spaceone-initializer -n cloudforet -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 cloudforet

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

To execute the below kubectl logs command, the status of POD(Ex: here initialize-spaceone-fsqen-74x7v) should be Completed . Proceeding with this while the POD is INITIALIZING will give errors

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

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

Update your helm values file (ex. release-1-12.yaml) 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:
      ENDPOINT: http://localhost:8081  # http://ec2_public_ip:8081 for EC2 users
    CONSOLE_API_V2:

global:
  shared_conf:
    TOKEN: 'TOKEN_VALUE_FROM_ABOVE'   # Change the system token

After editing the helm values file(ex. release-1-12.yaml), upgrade the helm chart.

helm upgrade cloudforet spaceone -n cloudforet -f release-1-12.yaml

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

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

7) Check the status of the pods

kubectl get pod -n cloudforet

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 cloudforet svc/console 8080:80 --address='0.0.0.0' &

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

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

Start Cloudforet

For EC2 users: open browser with http://your_ec2_server_ip:8080
