Kubernetes Cluster on AWS using Kops running on Docker for Mac

Pre-requisites:

• Docker Desktop for Mac
• Install AWS CLI using brew install aws
• Create an AWS Account if you are first time user.
• Run the below command to install kops on your macOS:

brew update && brew install kops

Adding Access & Secret Key

aws configure

This will store your credential under ~/.aws/credentials

bucket_name=collabstore

Create a AWS Bucket

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >  aws s3api create-bucket --bucket ${bucket_name} --region us-east-1
{
    "Location": "/collabstore"
}

Configure

aws s3api put-bucket-versioning --bucket ${bucket_name} --versioning-configuration Status=Enabled

Configure DNS Name

 aws route53 create-hosted-zone --name collabnix.com --caller-reference 2

export KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME=ajeet.k8s.local

Export Cluster Name

export KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME=ajeet.k8s.local

Exporting Kops State Store

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >  export KOPS_STATE_STORE=s3://${bucket_name}

ssh-keygen -t rsa

kops create secret --name ajeet.k8s.local sshpublickey admin -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >  kops create cluster \
> --node-count=2 \
> --node-size=t2.medium \
> --zones=us-east-1a \
> --name=${KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME}

Must specify --yes to apply changes

Cluster configuration has been created.

Suggestions:

• list clusters with: kops get cluster
• edit this cluster with: kops edit cluster k8.aws.dev.collabnix.com
• edit your node instance group: kops edit ig --name=ajeet.k8s.local nodes
• edit your master instance group: kops edit ig --name=ajeet.k8s.local master-us-east-1a

Finally configure your cluster with: kops update cluster ajeet.k8s.local --yes

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >  kops get cluster
NAME		CLOUD	ZONES
ajeet.k8s.local	aws	us-east-1a
[Captains-Bay]🚩 >

Deploy Kubernetes

kops update cluster --name ${KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME} --yes

kops get cluster
NAME				CLOUD	ZONES
ajeet.k8s.local	aws	us-east-1a

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >  kops update cluster --name ${KOPS_CLUSTER_NAME} --yes

kops has set your kubectl context to ajeet.k8s.local

Cluster changes have been applied to the cloud.


Changes may require instances to restart: kops rolling-update cluster

[Captains-Bay]🚩 >

Now you can see K8s cluster under Context UI.

Suggestions:
 * validate cluster: kops validate cluster
 * list nodes: kubectl get nodes --show-labels
 * ssh to the master: ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa [email protected]
 * the admin user is specific to Debian. If not using Debian please use the appropriate user based on your OS.
 * read about installing addons at: https://github.com/kubernetes/kops/blob/master/docs/operations/addons.md.
