Automated build of HA k3s Cluster with kube-vip and MetalLB forked from techno-tim/k3s-ansible repo.

After watching a couple Techno Tims excelent videos on k3s, I decided to add a couple of my own tasks to the existing project that deploys and resets the k3s cluster.

Here is a list of Roles I have added to Techno Tims k3s-ansible project

• Building VMs from an Ubuntu cloud-init template in Proxmox
• Destroying the VMs and deleting from Proxmox
• Deploying Traefik on to k3s
• Deploying Nautobot on the k3s
• Deploying cert manager on k3s and configuring staging and production certificates

I added an inventory.yml file, I like my inventories in yaml format, in the yaml inventory proxmox vmids are added as a host variable.

Nautobot

I use this tool pretty extensivly with work and my home lab. If you do not know about it you should check out this project managed by NetworktoCode

Things I am working on

In the roles I have added I am working on adding some validation steps to the certificate tasks.
