k3sup

We have hosted the application k3sup in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about k3sup:

k3sup is a lightweight utility to get from zero to KUBECONFIG with k3s on any local or remote VM. All you need is ssh access and the k3sup binary to get kubectl access immediately. The tool is written in Go and is cross-compiled for Linux, Windows, MacOS and even on Raspberry Pi. This tool uses ssh to install k3s to a remote Linux host. You can also use it to join existing Linux hosts into a k3s cluster as agents. First, k3s is installed using the utility script from Rancher, along with a flag for your host's public IP so that TLS works properly. The kubeconfig file on the server is then fetched and updated so that you can connect from your laptop using kubectl. k3sup was developed to automate what can be a very manual and confusing process for many developers, who are already short on time. Once you've provisioned a VM with your favorite tooling, k3sup means you are only 60 seconds away from running kubectl get pods on your own computer.

Features:

• Bootstrap Kubernetes with k3s onto any VM with k3sup install
• Get from zero to kubectl with k3s on Raspberry Pi (RPi), VMs, AWS EC2, Packet bare-metal, DigitalOcean, Civo, Scaleway, and others
• Build a HA, multi-master (server) cluster
• Fetch the KUBECONFIG from an existing k3s cluster
• Join nodes into an existing k3s cluster with k3sup join
• k3sup is distributed as a static Go binary

Programming Language: Go.
