Development and Testing Environment Providers

All following providers allow a common workflow:

make cluster-up to create the environment
make cluster-down to stop the environment
make cluster-build to build
make cluster-deploy to (re)deploy the code (no provider support needed)
make cluster-sync to build and (re)deploy the code
make functests to run the functional tests against KubeVirt
cluster/kubectl.sh to talk to the k8s installation

It is recommended to export the KUBEVIRT_PROVIDER vagirable as part of your .bashrc file.

Dockerized k8s/ocp clusters

Allows provisioning k8s cluster based on kubeadm. Supports an arbitrary amount of nodes.

Requires:

A working go installation
Nested virtualization enabled
A running docker daemon

Usage:

export KUBEVIRT_PROVIDER=k8s-1.9.3 # choose this provider
export KUBEVIRT_NUM_NODES=3 # master + two nodes
make cluster-up

Local

Allows provisioning a single-master k8s cluster based on latest upstream k8s code.

Requires:

A working go installation
A running docker daemon

Usage:

export KUBEVIRT_PROVIDER=local # choose this provider
make cluster-up

New Providers

Create a cluster/$KUBEVIRT_PROVIDER directory
Create a cluster/$KUBEVIRT_PROVIDER/provider.sh files
This file has to contain the functions up, build, down and _kubectl
Have a look at cluster/k8s-1.9.3/provider.sh for a reference implementation
