Perses Operator

An operator to install Perses in a k8s cluster.

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

1. Install custom resource definitions:

   make install

2. Install custom resources:

kubectl apply -k config/samples

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

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

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

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

Each instance of the CRD deploys the following resources:

• A ConfigMap holding the perses configuration
• A Service so perses API can be accessed from within the cluster
• A Deployment holding the perses API

Test It Out

1. Install Instances of Custom Resources and run the controller:

PERSES_IMAGE=docker.io/persesdev/perses:latest make install run

2. Install a CRD instance

kubectl apply -f config/samples/v1alpha1_perses.yaml --namespace default

3. Uninstall the CRD instance

kubectl delete -f config/samples/v1alpha1_perses.yaml --namespace default

Modifying the API definitions

If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using:

make manifests # Generate YAML manifests like CRDs, RBAC etc.
make generate # Generate code containing DeepCopy, DeepCopyInto, and DeepCopyObject method implementations.

NOTE: Run make --help for more information on all potential make targets
