This repo contains a locally-deployable Kubernetes cluster using Vagrant VMs and bootstrapping scripts. It's intended to be used to practice Kubernetes administrative tasks.
Generally, Vagrant creates control plane nodes (2 vCPU, 2GB RAM) and worker nodes (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM). Ensure whatever hardware you're using can handle provisioning these virtual resources, and once you're done, you likely want to tear down the stack so it stops running in the background.
All clusters are built with Vagrant through VirtualBox. Additionally, the following plugins should be installed:
vagrant plugin install vagrant-scp# navigate to cluster you want
cd clusters/ubuntu-1804/simple
# create the cluster
./up.sh
# ssh into the control plane
vagrant ssh u1804-simple-master0
# interact with the cluster
kubectl get cs
kubectl get nodes -o wide
kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx
kubectl expose deploy/nginx --port=80
kubectl get po -o wide
kubectl get svc
# logout of the VM
exit
# tear down to free up your machine's resources
./down.shTo go through a few different administrative exercises, check out the labs.
While I do hope that these environments and labs are helpful to you on your journey to implementing and administering Kubernetes (it really is an awesome tech stack!), this repository and it's contents should never be a substitute for doing your own research on any given topic, and definitely are not suitable for copy-pasta solutions in any of your current or future environments. They are provided in good faith to give you a path to learn in isolated environments; nothing else.
Before doing anything with this repository, please read the LICENSE.
Have an addition or an edit to contribute? Wonderful! Submit me an Issue or a PR! :) Please keep things relevant directly to the vagrant configurations or the labs.

Some vagrant configurations were based on work by others, namely Alex and Kim. Thank you for your contributions to Open Source!
