ceph-provider

ceph-provider is a Ceph based provider implementation of the ironcore Volume and Bucket types.

Please consult the project documentation for additional information.

Getting Started

You’ll need a Kubernetes cluster to run against. You can use KIND to get a local cluster for testing, or run against a remote cluster. Note: Your controller will automatically use the current context in your kubeconfig file (i.e. whatever cluster kubectl cluster-info shows).

Running on the cluster

1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:

kubectl apply -f config/samples/

2. Build and push your image to the location specified by IMG:

make docker-build docker-push IMG=<some-registry>/ceph-provider:tag

3. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:

make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/ceph-provider:tag

Undeploy controller

UnDeploy the controller to the cluster:

make undeploy

We'd love to get feedback from you. Please report bugs, suggestions or post questions by opening a GitHub issue.

How it works

This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern

It uses Controllers which provides a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources untile the desired state is reached on the cluster

Test It Out

Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):

make run

NOTE: You can also run this in one step by running: make install run

NOTE: Run make --help for more information on all potential make targets
