K8s Replicator
Replicator supports copying kubernetes resources across namespaces. This controller was written keeping extensibility and performance in mind. Therefore, it can be extended to any other resource as needed. The following resources are supported by the Kubernetes replicator.
- Secrets
- Config Maps
- Network Policies
How to Use
Prerequisites
The following tools are expected to be installed and ready.
- Kubectl
- Operator SDK
The following tools can be either installed on your own or let the installation scripts handle it.
- OLM to be installed in the cluster
OLM can be installed using the operator-sdk
operator-sdk olm install
How to Setup Operator
Quickstart
Run the following command to apply the controller to your cluster. The <VERSION>
should be replaced with the release version
to be used (eg:- 0.1.0
) and kubectl CLI should be configured pointing to the cluster in which the controller needs to be started.
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nadundesilva/k8s-replicator/main/installers/install.sh | bash -s <VERSION>
Manual Installation
- Make sure all the pre-requisites are installed (including the dependencies which are normally installed by the installation scripts)
- Install the Operator Bundle using the Operator SDK. The
<VERSION>
should be replaced with the release version to be used (eg:-0.1.0
) and kubectl CLI should be configured pointing to the cluster in which the controller needs to be started.operator-sdk run bundle docker.io/nadunrds/k8s-replicator-bundle:<VERSION>
How to mark a object to be replicated
Use the following label to mark the object to be replicated.
replicator.nadundesilva.github.io/object-type=replicated
All objects with the above label will replicated into all namespaces.
Ignored namespaces
The following namespaces are ignored by default.
- The namespace in which controller resides
- Namespaces with the name starting with
kube-
prefix - Namespaces with the label
replicator.nadundesilva.github.io/namespace-type=ignored
If you want to override this behavior and specifically replicate to a namespace, add the following label
replicator.nadundesilva.github.io/namespace-type=managed
Examples
Examples for the CRDs used by the Operator can be found in the samples directory.
Additional labels/annotations used by the controller
The folloing labels are used by the controller to track the replication of resources.
- The following label with the value
replica
is used to mark the replicated objects.replicator.nadundesilva.github.io/object-type=replica
- The following annotation is used to store a replicated resource's source namespace.
replicator.nadundesilva.github.io/source-namespace=<namespace>
How to Cleanup Operator
Quick Remove
Run the following command to remove the controller from your cluster. Kubectl CLI should be configured pointing to the cluster in which the controller needs to be started.
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nadundesilva/k8s-replicator/main/installers/uninstall.sh | bash -s
Manual Removal
Remove the controller from your cluster by running the following command.
operator-sdk cleanup k8s-replicator
