Description

Following on from Gunasekhar Matamalam excellent post introducing k8sgtp i'd like to try to integrate it's output into the Rancher UI via the UI extension mechanism.

Details

The Rancher UI endeavours to report cluster issues to users and show enough detail for them understand what has happened. That's normally where the user departs Rancher to find a solution, to then hopefully return to apply it.

K8sGTP is a tool that will help fill the missing link between problem and application of resolution by diagnosing the issue and suggesting steps to address it.

This project involves integrating the output of K8sGTP and applying it in the correct context to assist the user. It will do this by using the Rancher UI Extension mechanism to create an independent extension outside of the Rancher UI code base.

For all details, including daily progress, screenshots, discoveries and next steps see richard-cox/k8s-gen-ai-ui

Goals

• Get env up and running, with operator, and reporting issues via CRDs
• User gets notifications when an resource has an issue
• User can reach the resource and see the error description and solutions offered by k8sgpt
