spawner-service

Mulit-Cloud infrastructure orchestrator for kubernetes first development. One tool to rule them all. No need to use aws, azure or any other vendor specific cli to manage cluster and get kubeconfig.

Prerequisites

  1. Golang v1.17 or later.

Releases

binary release – coming soon

source release – clone repo

git clone [email protected]:netbook-devs/spawner-service.git

Usage

Spawner comes with following two packages

  • spawner-service – gRPC service to manage cloud provider infra
  • spawner – command line interface to interact with service

run service

  • update config.env with the cloud provider credentials, gRPC ports.

  • run the service

    Spawner is a gRPC service, so spin up a terminal and run the following command

    make run
    

    this will start the service in the specified ports in config.env


spawner command line tool

Build

spin up another terminal/tab and run the following in spawner-service repo directory

make build-client

Install

The previous build will generate the client binary named spawner in the current working directory. Copy that to your PATH or use it with relative execution path ./spawner as per your convenience.

Usage

For all the commands you need to pass spawner host address, default value is set to localhost:8083, if you need to change that, pass in using --addr or -a.

Example:

spawner cluster-status clustername --addr=192.168.1.78:8080 --provider=aws --region=us-west-2

Create a new cluster

To create a cluster we need more information on the cluster and node specification which can be passed to command as a file by specifying --request or -r

spawner create-cluster clustername -r request.json

request.json should contain the following

{
  "provider": "aws",
  "region": "us-east-1",
  "labels": {
    "created_at": "morning"
  },
  "node": {
    "name": "proident",
    "diskSize": 10,
    "labels": {
      "created_by": "alex"
     
    },
    "instance": "m5.xlarge",
    "gpuEnabled": false
  }
}

Note : This wil create a cluster and attach new node to it as per spec, the time taken by this operation completely depends on how fast provider responds.


Cluster status

Get the cluster status such as CREATING, ACTIVE, DELETING

spawner cluster-status clustername --provider "aws" -r=region

Delete Cluster

Delete the existing cluster

spawner delete-cluster clustername --provider "aws" -r=region

If the cluster has the nodes attached to it, this operation will fail, you can force delete the cluster which deletes attached node and then deletes the cluster.

To force delete set the --force or -f

spawner delete-cluster clustername --provider "aws" -r=region --force

Add new nodepool

Create new nodepool in a given cluster

spawner nodepool add clustername --request request.json

request.json will contain the nodespec for the new nodepool,

@request.json

{
  "nodeSpec": {
    "diskSize": 31,
    "name": "prosint",
    "count": 3,
    "instance": "Standard_A2_V2",
    "labels": {
      "created_by": "cli"
    }
  },
  "region": "eastus2",
  "clusterName": "my-cluster",
  "provider": "azure"
}

Delete nodepool

spawner nodepool delete clustername --provider "aws" -r=region --nodepool nodepoolname

Get kubeconfg for the cluster

spawner kubeconfig clustername --provider "aws" -r=region

this will read existing kube config from ~/.kube/config and merges new cluster config to it, sets the current context as the requested cluster
