This repo helps you install KubeSphere Core in another Kubernetes cluster.

Prerequisites

Two k8s clusters, one named kind-kubesphere-member, another named cluster kind-kubesphere-control-plane. You are assumed to install KubeSphere in cluster kind-kubesphere-control-plane which connects cluster kind-kubesphere-member. In this tutorial, we use kind to create two clusters.

Create two clusters with kind(optional)

Edit config/member-config config/control-plane-config and replace apiServerAddress with your own host machine ip.

make create-cluster

If everything goes well, run kubectl config get-contexts and you will get the following results:

CURRENT   NAME                            CLUSTER                         AUTHINFO                        NAMESPACE
*         kind-kubesphere-control-plane   kind-kubesphere-control-plane   kind-kubesphere-control-plane
          kind-kubesphere-member          kind-kubesphere-member          kind-kubesphere-member

Create configmap in kubesphere-control-plane cluster

make generate-cm

Create KubeSphere-Core manifests in kubesphere-member cluster

make deploy-kubesphere-member

Deploy KubeSphere-Core in kubesphere-control-plane cluster

make deploy-kubesphere-control-plane

Visit KubeSphere

TODO

1. Support running webhook alone
2. Support ks-console connects to ks-apiserver by modifying console cm
3. Support installing KubeSphere in another namespace instead of in kubesphere-system only.(leader election&Constant&Cluster Controller&Api dispatch&Devops s2i binary hardcoded)
4. Support launching kubectl pod with --kubeconfig flag.
5. Supprot installing monitoring agent in kubesphere-member cluster.
