Even though I fully agree with you, running a little 3 node cluster just for fun is amazing. Thanks to Rook and an Nginx ingress controller with kube-lego, I’m able to deploy applications leveraging distributed storage and getting tls secured endpoints without a single ssh session. This, in my point of view, is absolutely powerful.
Shameless plug, I‘ve been working on a project explaining how to run small scale clusters in the cloud for more than a year: https://github.com/hobby-kube/guide https://github.com/hobby-kube/guide
- ad_hominem 8y agoYou may want to update your tutorial to use cert-manager because kube-lego is in maintenance-only mode
- Filligree 8y agoYou mean, it's stable. That sounds like a good reason to use it, not to avoid it.
- raesene9 8y agoFrom the Kube-lego github page, it looks like the last version of k8s is supports is 1.8, which will only be supported until 1.11 comes out. So sounds more like it's deprecated than stable.
- kuschku 8y agoIt doesn’t support ACMEv2, Wildcard certs, and more. And Certmanager is alpha. The alternatives are all horrible.
- ad_hominem 8y agoNot really; I had an issue that silently broke renewals. When I found the open issue that corresponded to it the maintainers were herding people to cert-manager. There are a lot of issues where they are doing that (besides very obviously at the top of the README with warning symbols). At the very least it's eventually going to break on newer versions of Kubernetes. Maintenance-only != LTS.
- eric_h 8y agoMaintenance-only usually means deprecated. There are some areas in the software world where maintenance-only can last a long time and can be de facto LTS. The Kubernetes ecosystem is not one of them.
- megaman22 8y agoDepends on where you come from. In JS world, stable means there's a fork in it, and it's grayer than last weeks' meat. In server-side world, that means you're good to build a business on it for 15 years
- vorpalhex 8y agocert-manager is marked as alpha/non-production currently.
- s_kilk 8y ago(Off Topic) interesting that we're seeing two radically different philosophies of software development in this thread, in stark contrast.
- ad_hominem 8y agoSo is kube-lego.
- pstadler 8y agoThanks for the hint, I didn‘t know that. Related issue: https://github.com/hobby-kube/guide/issues/47 https://github.com/hobby-kube/guide/issues/47
- wpietri 8y agoOoh, thanks, this is just what I've been looking for.
- inteleng 8y ago> I’m able to deploy applications leveraging distributed storage and getting tls secured endpoints without a single ssh session Is it grammatically possible to use more buzzwords in a single sentence? Reading that made me want to vomit.
- vectorpush 8y agoThe words have meaning. If you don't understand them you could just ask for them to be explained rather than throwing out insults. I suspect you actually do understand the meaning of what was written though so I suppose that means you're just trying to start a flamewar.
- lowbloodsugar 8y agoYou: Look what I did with k8s Top voted reply: You had to use a thing to do what you want, and that thing isn't even supported any more. [Either I was hallucinating at the time and imagined it, or there was a reply that got deleted] I think you've just quite nicely demonstrated the original authors point.
- pstadler 8y agoYou sound like you‘re new to this business.
- lowbloodsugar 8y agoSometimes the people "new to this business" have the best ideas. It's more likely that I'm a grumpy old man worried about his lawn.
- Pneumaticat 8y agoHow did I not find this one month ago, as I set up a two node hobby cluster?!
- bogomipz 8y ago>"Rook and an Nginx ingress controller with kube-lego" Can you elaborate on this configuration, specifically Root and Kube-lego? I am not familiar with those.
- bruinjoe 8y agoThanks for sharing about hobby-kube.
