Bash on Board! - General purpose container for Kubernetes
This guide will walk you through the basic setup of BoB! enable the backend services.
Kubernetes v1.15 or higher is supported by BoB!. Helm version 3.x or higher is supported by BoB!.
If you’re feeling lucky, a simple BoB! cluster can be created with the following helm 3 command. No values.yaml is necessary. For the more detailed install, skip to the next section to deploy the BoB! cluster.
console
#Set the version to a production semantic version
helm repo add 262life https://262life.github.io/bob
helm repo update
kubectl create namespace bob
helm upgrade --install bob 262life/bob --version 0.9.13 # or some other version
After the cluster is running, you must now install the BoB! plugins. You WILL require administrator proviledges on your workstation or server to do so. This is NOT intended to be installed on the K8s hosts.
console
#Set the version to a production semantic version
export vers="v0.9.13"; curl --location --silent -o - https://github.com/262life/bob/releases/download/${vers}/installer.sh | bash -s -- ${vers}
Details on the plugin can be found here.
The first step is to deploy the BoB! cluster. Check that you are using …
console
helm3 install bob bob/bob --version 0.8-var7-rc.5 --set "image.pullPolicy=Always"
To upgrade the BoB! cluster, simply upgrade the helm chart.
console
helm3 upgrade bob bob/bob --version v0.8.7-rc.5 [--devel]
BoB! was designed so that there are no changes required to the Helm Chart installation thereby making a very simple installation. If you want to expose the BoB! service outside the cluster you can do so as follows:
console
## NodePort
kubectl expose service bob --type=NodePort --name bob-public
## or
## LoabBalancer
kubectl expose service bob --type=NodePort --name bob-public
To teardown the BoB! cluster, simply uninstall the helm chart.
console
#helm3 delete bob
