| I have built this on Digital Ocean's dropletkit API client gem for Ruby, but without the "we send you a bill" part. Two or three clicks to kubeconfig, then your cluster is deleted in about 4 days. I call it Hephynator and it's not open source yet, but I would definitely consider it. (This model works for me, because I received Open Source credits from DO. :thanks:) I don't know how much that helps, but DigitalOcean's built-in interface to creating clusters is about that easy. It's nicer than my stripped-down version. Things like "how long until your cluster is ready" -- I didn't take care of that in my DropletKit client, but DOK8s does in their web interface. My driver to build this little widget was the fact that their Kubeconfig files that are issued by DigitalOcean's interface by default expire after 7 days, so I either needed a way to be sure that my OSS contributors who I hand these clusters out to, could get another kubeconfig when it expired, but not wait for me... or, their cluster would not live as long as the expiration date, which seemed to be a more reasonable economy-driven decision. I decided to make the clusters last 4 days and then delete themselves. It was a fun project, and now we can use it to make more fun Open Source. I should open source it. It's a very simple rails app. It does exactly what you describe, I just push "Create cluster" and then confirm some parameters, then get a "Download Kubeconfig" button which is the last step where you have to interact with anyone other than K8s API. It needs to be made pretty, before I'd consider publishing it. But for now, it does the job and my team is using it fruitfully :) |
