Bootstrap portusctl as a separate repository
a project by mssola
Updated almost 6 years ago. 3 hacker ♥️.

Right now portusctl is a tool which is embedded into the Portus source code. This was done out of simplicity and with the hope that we would share as much code as possible with Portus itself. However:

  • portusctl got bigger and bigger, and it starts to look like a good candidate for getting it in another repository.
  • Code sharing never happened and it probably won't happen because they are tackling two entirely different things.
  • The tool is evolving to something entirely different: with the containerized setup and the REST API, portusctl should be more of an API consumer instead of the tool it is now.

So, I've decided to re-write portusctl from scratch using Go. Generally speaking it will have:

  • An interface heavily inspired by kubectl in which a user will be able to talk to the REST API.
  • Some commands like exec which have proven to be useful, for cases in which portusctl and Portus reside on the same host/container.

If I'm successful at bootstrapping this project, then I'll release it as GPLv3 and try to push it into openSUSE's Github account.

    OpenQA Golang api client by hilchev

    Description

    I would like to make a simple cli tool to communicate with the OpenQA API

    Goals

    • OpenQA has a ton of information that is hard to get via the UI. A tool like this would make my life easier :)
    • Would potentially make it easier in the future to make UI changes without Perl.
    • Improve my Golang skills

    Contribute to terraform-provider-libvirt by pinvernizzi

    Description

    The SUSE Manager (SUMA) teams' main tool for infrastructure automation, Sumaform, largely relies on terraform-provider-libvirt. That provider is also widely used by other teams, both inside and outside SUSE.

    It would be good to help the maintainers of this project and give back to the community around it, after all the amazing work that has been already done.

    If you're interested in any of infrastructure automation, Terraform, virtualization, tooling development, Go (...) it is also a good chance to learn a bit about them all by putting your hands on an interesting, real-use-case and complex project.

    Goals

    • Get more familiar with Terraform provider development and libvirt bindings in Go
    • Solve some issues and/or implement some features
    • Get in touch with the community around the project

    Learn enough Golang and hack on CoreDNS by jkuzilek

    Description

    I'm implementing a split-horizon DNS for my home Kubernetes cluster to be able to access my internal (and external) services over the local network through public domains. I managed to make a PoC with the k8s_gateway plugin for CoreDNS. However, I soon found out it responds with IPs for all Gateways assigned to HTTPRoutes, publishing public IPs as well as the internal Loadbalancer ones.

    To remedy this issue, a simple filtering mechanism has to be implemented.

    Goals

    • Learn an acceptable amount of Golang
    • Implement GatewayClass (and IngressClass) filtering for k8s_gateway
    • Deploy on homelab cluster
    • Profit?

    Resources

    EDIT: Feature mostly complete. An unfinished PR lies here. Successfully tested working on homelab cluster.

    kubectl clone: Seamlessly Clone Kubernetes Resources Across Multiple Rancher Clusters and Projects by dpunia

    Description

    kubectl clone is a kubectl plugin that empowers users to clone Kubernetes resources across multiple clusters and projects managed by Rancher. It simplifies the process of duplicating resources from one cluster to another or within different namespaces and projects, with optional on-the-fly modifications. This tool enhances multi-cluster resource management, making it invaluable for environments where Rancher orchestrates numerous Kubernetes clusters.

    Goals

    1. Seamless Multi-Cluster Cloning
      • Clone Kubernetes resources across clusters/projects with one command.
      • Simplifies management, reduces operational effort.

    Resources

    1. Rancher & Kubernetes Docs

      • Rancher API, Cluster Management, Kubernetes client libraries.

    2. Development Tools

      • Kubectl plugin docs, Go programming resources.

    Building and Installing the Plugin

    1. Set Environment Variables: Export the Rancher URL and API token:
    • export RANCHER_URL="https://rancher.example.com"
    • export RANCHER_TOKEN="token-xxxxx:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    1. Build the Plugin: Compile the Go program:
    • go build -o kubectl-clone ./pkg/
    1. Install the Plugin: Move the executable to a directory in your PATH:
    • mv kubectl-clone /usr/local/bin/

    Ensure the file is executable:

    • chmod +x /usr/local/bin/kubectl-clone
    1. Verify the Plugin Installation: Test the plugin by running:
    • kubectl clone --help

    You should see the usage information for the kubectl-clone plugin.

    Usage Examples

    1. Clone a Deployment from One Cluster to Another:
    • kubectl clone --source-cluster c-abc123 --type deployment --name nginx-deployment --target-cluster c-def456 --new-name nginx-deployment-clone
    1. Clone a Service into Another Namespace and Modify Labels:

    suse-rancher-supportconfig by eminguez

    Description

    Update: Live at https://github.com/e-minguez/suse-rancher-supportconfig I finally didn't used golang but used gum instead add-emoji

    SUSE's supportconfig support tool collects data from the SUSE Operating system. Rancher's rancher2_logs_collector.sh support tool does the same for RKE2/K3s.

    Wouldn't be nice to have a way to run both and collect all data for SUSE based RKE2/K3s clusters? Wouldn't be even better with a fancy TUI tool like bubbletea?

    Ideally the output should be an html page where you can see the logs/data directly from the browser.

    Goals

    • Familiarize myself with both supportconfig and rancher2_logs_collector.sh tools
    • Refresh my golang knowledge
    • Have something that works at the end of the hackweek ("works" may vary add-emoji )
    • Be better in naming things
