Pre-Requisites

kubectl#

First install kubectl if not already installed

Auto completions for kubectl (optional)#

source <(kubectl completion bash)
alias k=kubectl
complete -o default -F __start_kubectl k

source <(kubectl completion zsh)
alias k=kubectl
complete -F _start_kubectl k

Install Kubernetes (optional)#

To install sdc on a kubernetes cluster we first need to install a kubernetes cluster. Other than the minimum version being v1.29¹, Sdc has no special requirements on the k8s cluster, so any k8s flavor should work, bearing in mind the minimum version¹

kind create cluster --name sdc

Install Cert-Manager#

The config-server (extension api-server) requires a certificate, which is created via cert-manager. The corresponding CA cert needs to be injected into the cabundle spec field of the api-service resource.

kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.13.3/cert-manager.yaml
# If the SDCIO resources, see below are being applied to fast, the webhook of the cert-manager is not already there.
# Hence we need to wait for the resource be become Available
kubectl wait -n cert-manager --for=condition=Available=True --timeout=300s deployments.apps cert-manager-webhook
