KubeView

Kubernetes cluster visualiser and visual explorer

KubeView displays what is happening inside a Kubernetes cluster, it maps out the API objects and how they are interconnected. Data is fetched real-time from the Kubernetes API. The status of some objects (Pods, ReplicaSets, Deployments) is colour coded red/green to represent their status and health

The app auto refreshes and dynamically updates the view as new data comes in or changes

Currently displays:

• Deployments
• ReplicaSets / StatefulSets / DaemonSets
• Pods
• Services
• Ingresses
• LoadBalancer IPs
• PersistentVolumeClaims

Note. This is a work in progress ☢

Enhancement

replace the icons with labels provided by kubernetes community

Here is the link for all these icons. I also changed the green/grey/red icons when needed. https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/icons/svg

add the host/node topology views

it is easy to check which node the pod is allocated.

improve the performane when query api server

using go func can improve the performance of api query

Todo

Short Term

• Filtering improvements (no refresh)
• Support some CRDs?
• Display Nodes?

Medium Term

• Security
• Add AI
• Profit
