BasicKube

A non-out-of-the-box basic k8s UI for business developers, not suitable for managing K8s clusters.

Features

Environment and Group

Support for environment-based resource partitioning: development environment, testing environment, staging environment, and production environment.

The same service or resource in different environments forms a "group".

Basic operations in Kubernetes:

Support basic CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations for the following K8s resources:

1. • Deployment
   • • Publishing the main container image of a Pod
   • • Scaling
2. • Service
3. • Ingress
4. • DaemonSet
5. • Job
6. • CronJob

Note

In BasicKube, the Deployment group is also referred to as the Application group. In a broad sense, an application includes Deployment, DaemonSet, and so on. However, in BasicKube, when not explicitly stated, the term "application" refers only to Deployment.

Pod Container Terminal

BasicKube provides a web terminal that can be used to connect to containers and perform operations on Pods.

Viewing Pod events.

Configuration

IAM

Identity and Access Management(IAM) inspired by AWS IAM, used to control user permissions on the k8s namespace.

Design concept

1. One project is associated with a namespace by associating an IAM node.
2. A project can contain multiple users, and a user can also be under multiple projects.

Configure the mapping of IAM node and namespace

1. Open appsettings.json file
2. Add K8s:NameSpaceMap configuration:

{
  "Logging": {
    ...
  },
  "K8s": {
+    "NameSpaceMap": {
      "1": "default"
    }
  }
}

In the section K8s:NameSpaceMapg，key is the IAM node, and the value is k8s namespace.

K8s cluster configuration

1. Add the configuration file for the k8s cluster under directory BasicKube.Api/configs
2. Set the mapping between the environment and the k8s cluster in the appsettings.json file. The section is K8s:ClusterConfig:

{
  "K8s": {
    "NameSpaceMap": {
      ...
    },
+    "ClusterConfig": {
      "dev": "./configs/k8s-cluster-config-dev",
      "test": "./configs/k8s-cluster-config-default",
      "staging": "./configs/k8s-cluster-config-default",
      "prod": "./configs/k8s-cluster-config-default"
    }
  }
}

In the section K8s:ClusterConfig，key is the environment name, and the value is the configuration file for the k8s cluster .

External account system integration

There is no account system function in BasicKube, it needs to be integrated with the existing account system in AccountController, which is under BasicKube.Api/Controllers/Account.
