While exploring, I came across ko tool by google & found interesting since it buids and deploy golang applications to kubernetes easily. This post is for minikube only since I am focussing on local development. Pre-Flight Checks Installing ko go get github.com/google/go-containerregistry/cmd/ko That’s it :) Verify your installation by which ko We can mention any docker registry (local or remote) using KO_DOCKER_REPO env variable, but as we are focussing on local development, we will publish images to minikube’s docker daemon...

What’s client-go ? Where’s client-go ? you can find it in kubernetes/kubernetes/staging directory and published by bot to k8s.io/client-go, kubernetes also uses client-go. it’s interesting if you see client-go from kubernetes vendor, it has symlinks to kubernetes/kubernetes/staging In this Adventure, very first step is to see how to connect to API Server :) Connecting to API Server There are two ways to talk to cluster using any go program: outside cluster: if your program is standalone and if you have either kubeconfig file or master URL....

If you have kubeconfig file already in place, kubeconfig := clientcmd.NewNonInteractiveDeferredLoadingClientConfig(clientcmd.NewDefaultClientConfigLoadingRules(), &clientcmd.ConfigOverrides{}) There is one more function clientcmd.NewInteractiveDeferredLoadingClientConfig but as per code, we can use it only when password is allowed Namespace given by current context, namespace, _, err := kubeconfig.Namespace() REST config needed to operations restconfig, err := kubeconfig.ClientConfig() if you want kubeconfig as a struct clientcmdapi.Config, err := kubeconfig.RawConfig() Here, kubeconfig is interface of following type: // ClientConfig is used to make it easy to get an api server client type ClientConfig interface { // RawConfig returns the merged result of all overrides RawConfig() (clientcmdapi....

we got restConfig and namespace, connection is set up Yay From this restconfig, Now we need to create respective clients for further operations we will need following package: import k8s.io/client-go/kubernetes create basic kubernetes client: kubeClient, err := kubernetes.NewForConfig(restConfig) it returns clients for APIgroups like: Apps CoreV1 Batch StorageV1 If you have some custom controller, generated code will have NewForConfig function which you have call separately, For example, In case of service catalog,...
