endpoint-copier-operator

This is an Kubernetes operator whose purpose is to create a copy of a Kubernetes Service and Endpoint and to keep them synced.

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).

Running on the cluster

Deploy the controller to the cluster:

helm install --create-namespace -n endpoint-copier-operator endpoint-copier-operator helm/endpoint-copier-operator

Create a Kubernetes Service:

cat <<-EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: kubernetes-vip
  namespace: default
spec:
  internalTrafficPolicy: Cluster
  ipFamilies:
  - IPv4
  ipFamilyPolicy: SingleStack
  ports:
  - name: https
    port: 443
    protocol: TCP
    targetPort: 6443
  sessionAffinity: None
  type: LoadBalancer
EOF

Uninstall controller

Uninstall the controller from the cluster:

helm -n endpoint-copier-operator uninstall endpoint-copier-operator

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. 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: Run make help for more information on all potential make targets
