My home Kubernetes cluster

… managed by Flux. For testing and prototyping.

Overview

This repository is my homelab Kubernetes cluster in a declarative state. Flux v2 watches my cluster folder and makes the changes to my cluster based on the YAML manifests.

“The DevOps Lab”

List of stuff I (want to) run on the cluster. Mostly for “science” and for personal satisfaction.

• Flux v2 for declarative gitops deployments.
• SOPS for secret sharing.
• Prometheus, Grafana and Loki for monitoring.
• Traefik with automatically provisioned TLS certificates.
• kubeval and kube-score for validating the cluster declarations.
• Flagger for progressive delivery with canary deployments…
• Ansible (with kubespray?) for provisioning the k8s cluster itself…
• More Github Actions for keeping things up-to-date…

Cluster Setup

My single-node k8s cluster is running on old bare metal in my basement. It was set up with kubeadm on CentOS.

TODO: Automate the k8s installation with Ansible.

Thanks

A lot of inspiration for my flux repo structure came from onder0p’s home cluster.
