To update Kubernetes, follow these steps:
- Make a clean GOPATH, with minikube in it. This isn't strictly necessary, but it usually helps.
mkdir -p $HOME/newgopath/src/k8s.io
export GOPATH=$HOME/newgopath
cd $HOME/newgopath/src/k8s.io
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube.git
- Copy your vendor directory back out to the new GOPATH.
cd minikube
godep restore ./...
- Kubernetes should now be on your GOPATH. Check it out to the right version. Make sure to also fetch tags, as Godep relies on these.
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
git fetch --tags
Then list all available Kubernetes tags:
git tag
...
v1.2.4
v1.2.4-beta.0
v1.3.0-alpha.3
v1.3.0-alpha.4
v1.3.0-alpha.5
...
Then checkout the correct one and update its dependencies with:
git checkout $DESIREDTAG
godep restore ./...
-
Build and test minikube, making any manual changes necessary to build.
-
Update godeps
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/minikube
rm -rf Godeps/ vendor/
godep save ./...
- Verify that the correct tag is marked in the Godeps.json file by running this script:
python hack/get_k8s_version.py
-X k8s.io/minikube/vendor/k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/version.gitCommit=caf9a4d87700ba034a7b39cced19bd5628ca6aa3 -X k8s.io/minikube/vendor/k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/version.gitVersion=v1.3.0-beta.2 -X k8s.io/minikube/vendor/k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/version.gitTreeState=clean
The -X k8s.io/minikube/vendor/k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/version.gitVersion
flag should contain the right tag.
Once you've build and started minikube, you can also run:
kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"2", GitVersion:"v1.2.4", GitCommit:"3eed1e3be6848b877ff80a93da3785d9034d0a4f", GitTreeState:"clean"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"3+", GitVersion:"v1.3.0-beta.2", GitCommit:"caf9a4d87700ba034a7b39cced19bd5628ca6aa3", GitTreeState:"clean"}
The Server Version should contain the right tag in version.Info.GitVersion
.
If any manual changes were required, please commit the vendor changes separately. This makes the change easier to view in Github.
git add vendor/
git commit -m "Updating Kubernetes to foo"
git add --all
git commit -m "Manual changes to update Kubernetes to foo"
As a final part of updating kubernetes, a new version of localkube should be uploaded to GCS so that users can select this version of kubernetes/localkube in later minikube/localkube builds. For instructions on how to do this, see LOCALKUBE_RELEASING.md
