✨ What is the garm-operator?

garm-operator is a Kubernetes® operator that manages the lifecycle of garm objects by creating/updating/deleting corresponding objects in the Kubernetes cluster.

🔀 Versioning

Garm Version

garm-operator is tightly coupled with the garm server. Therefore, the compatibility between garm-operator and garm is crucial.

garm-operator	garm	compatible
0.4.x	0.1.5	✅
0.4.x	0.1.4	❌
0.3.x	0.1.4	✅
0.3.x	0.1.5	⚠️ It is not recommended to operate during a longer time period. This state mostly exists when you update the garm-operator from 0.3.x to 0.4.x

Note

please also read the operator update guide when you want to update the garm-operator.

Kubernetes Version

garm-operator uses client-go to talk with Kubernetes clusters. The supported Kubernetes cluster version is determined by client-go. The compatibility matrix for client-go and Kubernetes cluster can be found here.

🚀 Installation

Prerequisites

1. A Kubernetes cluster you want to deploy the garm-operator.
2. As we use ValidatingWebhooks for validation, cert-manager must be installed. (You can find the installation instructions here).
3. You need to have a garm server up and running and reachable from within the Kubernetes cluster you want to deploy the garm-operator.

Deployment

garm-operator

We are releasing the garm-operator as container image together with the corresponding Kubernetes manifests. You can find the latest release here.

This manifests can be used to deploy the garm-operator into your Kubernetes cluster.

export GARM_OPERATOR_VERSION=<garm-operator-version>
export GARM_SERVER_URL=<garm-server-url> 
export GARM_SERVER_USERNAME=<garm-server-username>
export GARM_SERVER_PASSWORD=<garm-server-password>
export OPERATOR_WATCH_NAMESPACE=<operator-watch-namespace>
curl -L https://github.com/mercedes-benz/garm-operator/releases/download/${GARM_OPERATOR_VERSION}/garm-operator-all.yaml | envsubst | kubectl apply -f -
