create-single-master-cluster

Create a single-master Kubernetes cluster with kubeadm

This will set up a new single-master Kubernetes cluster that has

• 1 master, has 2 CPUs and 2 GBs RAM
• 3 workers, each worker has 2 CPUs and 2 GBs RAM

Prerequisites

Before you want to try this on your local, here are requirements

• A public key in .ssh/id_rsa.pub in your home directory
• Directly download Virtualbox and install, or use homebrew

  brew install --cask virtualbox
  

• Vagrant

  brew install --cask vagrant
  

Provision VMs

cd create-single-master-cluster
vagrant up

Create Kubernetes cluster

ansible-playbook -i playbook/inventory.yml playbook/playbook.yml

Let's ssh into the master VM, and verify the cluster

ssh ci@172.16.1.11
kubectl get nodes

Download kubeconfig to your local

mkdir ~/.kube-local
scp ci@172.16.1.11:/home/ci/.kube/config ~/.kube-local/config
export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube-local/config && kubectl get nodes
