Walkthrough
docwithnav

This document assumes that you've installed Service Catalog onto your cluster. If you haven't, please see the installation instructions. Optionally you may install the Service Catalog CLI, svcat. Examples for both svcat and kubectl are provided so that you may follow this walkthrough using svcat or using only kubectl.

NOTE: Some commands in this document assume internet connectivity.

Since the Service Catalog provides a Kubernetes-native interface to an Open Service Broker API compatible broker server, we'll need to install one in order to proceed with a demo.

We plan on using the minibroker for demo purposes. The codebase for that broker is here.

We're going to deploy the minibroker to our Kubernetes cluster before proceeding, and we'll do so with the minibroker helm chart. You can find details about the chart in the minibroker README.

Otherwise, to install with sensible defaults, run the following command:

NOTE: The walkthrough installs a cluster-wide Broker with the defaults from minibroker.

helm repo add minibroker https://minibroker.blob.core.windows.net/charts

If you are using Helm v3, run this command:

helm install minibroker minibroker/minibroker --namespace minibroker --create-namespace

For older versions of Helm, use the --name option:

helm install --name minibroker --namespace minibroker minibroker/minibroker

Step 2 - Viewing ClusterServiceClasses and ClusterServicePlans

The controller created a ClusterServiceClass for each service that the minibroker provides. We can view the ClusterServiceClass resources available:

$ svcat get classes
     NAME      NAMESPACE          DESCRIPTION         
+------------+-----------+---------------------------+
  mariadb                  Helm Chart for mariadb     
  mongodb                  Helm Chart for mongodb     
  mysql                    Helm Chart for mysql       
  postgresql               Helm Chart for postgresql  
  redis                    Helm Chart for redis 

$ kubectl get clusterserviceclasses
NAME         EXTERNAL-NAME   BROKER       AGE
mariadb      mariadb         minibroker   5m50s
mongodb      mongodb         minibroker   5m50s
mysql        mysql           minibroker   5m50s
postgresql   postgresql      minibroker   5m50s
redis        redis           minibroker   5m50s

NOTE: The above kubectl command uses a custom set of columns. The NAME field is the Kubernetes name of the ClusterServiceClass and the EXTERNAL NAME field is the human-readable name for the service that the broker returns.

The minibroker provides a service with the external name mariadb. View the details of this offering:

$ svcat describe class mariadb

Step 4 - Creating a New ServiceInstance

Now that a ClusterServiceClass named mariadb exists within our cluster's service catalog, we can create a ServiceInstance that points to it.

Unlike ClusterServiceBroker and ClusterServiceClass resources, ServiceInstance resources must be namespaced. Create a namespace with the following command:

$ kubectl create namespace test-ns
namespace "test-ns" created

Then, create the ServiceInstance:

$ kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/service-catalog/master/contrib/examples/walkthrough/mini-instance.yaml
serviceinstance.servicecatalog.k8s.io/mini-instance created

After the ServiceInstance is created, the service catalog controller will communicate with the appropriate broker server to initiate provisioning. Check the status of that process:

$ svcat describe instance -n test-ns mini-instance
  Name:        mini-instance                                                                      
  Namespace:   test-ns                                                                            
  Status:      Ready - The instance was provisioned successfully @ 2019-06-18 02:42:55 +0000 UTC

  Plan:        10-3-22

Step 5 - Requesting a ServiceBinding to use the ServiceInstance

Now that our ServiceInstance has been created, we can bind to it. Create a ServiceBinding resource:

$ kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/service-catalog/master/contrib/examples/walkthrough/mini-binding.yaml
servicebinding.servicecatalog.k8s.io/mini-binding created

After the ServiceBinding resource is created, the service catalog controller will communicate with the appropriate broker server to initiate binding. Generally, this will cause the broker server to create and issue credentials that the service catalog controller will insert into a Kubernetes Secret. We can check the status of this process like so:

$ svcat describe binding -n test-ns mini-binding
  Name:        mini-binding                                                  
  Namespace:   test-ns                                                       
  Status:      Ready - Injected bind result @ 2019-06-18 02:45:41 +0000 UTC  
  Secret:      mini-binding                                                  
  Instance:    mini-instance                                                 

Parameters:
  No parameters defined

Secret Data:
  Protocol                5 bytes   
  host                    47 bytes  
  mariadb-password        10 bytes  
  mariadb-root-password   10 bytes  
  password                10 bytes  
  port                    4 bytes   
  uri                     76 bytes  
  username                4 bytes

$ kubectl get servicebindings -n test-ns mini-binding -o yaml

    groups:

  conditions:

  orphanMitigationInProgress: false
  reconciledGeneration: 1
  unbindStatus: Required

Notice that the status has a Ready condition set. This means our binding is ready to use! If we look at the Secrets in our test-ns namespace, we should see a new one:

$ kubectl get secrets -n test-ns
NAME                    TYPE                                  DATA   AGE
default-token-n2j75     kubernetes.io/service-account-token   3      10m
mini-binding            Opaque                                8      91s

Notice that a new Secret named mini-binding has been created. At this point,we could use this secret to connect the running MariaDB instance to our application running on Kubernetes.

Step 6 - Deleting the ServiceBinding

Now, let's unbind the instance:

$ svcat unbind -n test-ns mini-instance
deleted mini-binding

After the deletion is complete, we should see that the Secret is gone:

$ kubectl get secrets -n test-ns
NAME                    TYPE                                  DATA   AGE
default-token-n2j75     kubernetes.io/service-account-token   3      11m

Step 7 - Deleting the ServiceInstance

Now, we can deprovision the instance:

$ svcat deprovision -n test-ns mini-instance
deleted mini-instance

Step 8 - Deleting the ClusterServiceBroker

Next, we should remove the ClusterServiceBroker resource. This tells the service catalog to remove the broker's services from the catalog. Do so with this command:

$ kubectl delete clusterservicebrokers minibroker
clusterservicebroker.servicecatalog.k8s.io "minibroker" deleted

We should then see that all the ClusterServiceClass resources that came from that broker have also been deleted:

$ svcat get classes
  NAME   NAMESPACE   DESCRIPTION
+------+-----------+-------------+

$ kubectl get clusterserviceclasses
No resources found.

Step 9 - Final Cleanup

To clean up minibroker deployment, delete the helm release.

If you are using Helm v3, run this command:

helm delete minibroker

For older versions of Helm, use the --purge option:

helm delete --purge minibroker

Then, delete all the namespaces we created:

kubectl delete ns test-ns minibroker

Troubleshooting

Firewall rules

If you are using Google Cloud Platform, you may need to run the following command to setup proper firewall rules to allow your traffic get in.

gcloud compute firewall-rules create allow-service-catalog-secure --allow tcp:30443 --description "Allow incoming traffic on 30443 port."
