# K8s
[K8s](https://hexdocs.pm/k8s/readme.html) - A Kubernetes client for Elixir
[](https://travis-ci.org/coryodaniel/k8s)
[](https://coveralls.io/github/coryodaniel/k8s?branch=master)
[](https://hex.pm/packages/k8s)
[](https://hexdocs.pm/k8s/)

## Installation
If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `k8s` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:k8s, "~> 0.2"}
]
end
```
## Features
* A client API for humans
* Kubernetes resources, groups, and CRDs are autodiscovered at boot time. No swagger file to include or override.
* Client supports standard HTTP calls, async batches, wait on status, and watchers
* Supports multiple clusters
* Supports multiple authentication credentials
* Supports multiple kubernetes API
* Tested against kubernetes swagger specs: 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, 1.13, and master
* CRD support
* Kubernetes resource and version helper functions
* Kube config file parsing
* Certificate and service account based auth
* Pluggable auth providers
* Macro free; fast compile & fast startup
### Non-features
* Modules for every resource. The client always return string-keyed maps.
* K8s.Client does *not* assuming "default" namespaces. Always provide a namespace when a namespace is applicable.
* Will not support the deprecated Watch API
* Connect URLs aren't currently supported
* Finalize, binding, scale, and approval subresources aren't currently supported
## Registering Clusters
Clusters can be registered via `config.exs` or directly with `K8s.Cluster.register/2`.
Clusters are referenced by name (`:default` below) when using a `K8s.Client`. Multiple clusters can be registered via config.
This library ships with Kubernetes specs 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, and 1.13.
### Registering clusters via config
Adding a cluster named `:default` using `~/.kube/config`. Defaults to `current-context`.
```elixir
config :k8s,
clusters: %{
default: %{
conf: "~/.kube/config"
}
}
```
Using an alternate context:
```elixir
config :k8s,
clusters: %{
default: %{
conf: "~/.kube/config"
conf_opts: [context: "other-context"]
}
}
```
Setting cluster and user explicitly:
```elixir
config :k8s,
clusters: %{
default: %{
conf: "~/.kube/config"
conf_opts: [user: "some-user", cluster: "prod-cluster"]
}
}
```
### Registering clusters directly
The below will register a cluster named `"1.13"` using `~/.kube.config` to connect. There are many options for loading a config, this will load the user and cluster from the `current-context`.
```elixir
name = "1.13"
conf = K8s.Conf.from_file("~/.kube/config")
K8s.Cluster.register(name, conf)
```
*Note:* Kubernetes API specs can be downloaded using `mix k8s.swagger --version 1.13`.
### Adding authorization providers
```elixir
config :k8s, auth_providers: [My.Custom.Provider]
```
Providers are checked in order, the first to return an authorization struct wins.
Custom providers are processed before default providers.
See [Certicate](lib/k8s/conf/auth/certificate.ex) and [Token](lib/k8s/conf/auth/token.ex) for protocol and behavior implementations.
