I have two containers (GitLab and PostgreSQL) running on RancherOS v1.0.3. I would like to make them part of Kubernetes cluster.
[rancher@rancher-agent-1 ~]$ cat postgresql.sh
docker run --name gitlab-postgresql -d \
--env 'POSTGRES_DB=gitlabhq_production' \
--env 'POSTGRES_USER=gitlab' --env 'POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password' \
--volume /srv/docker/gitlab/postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql \
postgres:9.6-2
[rancher@rancher-agent-1 ~]$ cat gitlab.sh
docker run --name gitlab -d \
--link gitlab-postgresql:postgresql \
--publish 443:443 --publish 80:80 \
--env 'GITLAB_PORT=80' --env 'GITLAB_SSH_PORT=10022' \
--env 'GITLAB_SECRETS_DB_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-A' \
--env 'GITLAB_SECRETS_SECRET_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-B' \
--env 'GITLAB_SECRETS_OTP_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-C' \
--volume /srv/docker/gitlab/gitlab:/home/git/data \
sameersbn/gitlab:9.4.5Queries:
1) I have some idea about how to use YAML files to provision pods, replication controller etc. but i am not sure how to pass the above docker run parameters to Kubernetes so that it can apply the same to image(s) correctly.
2) I'm not sure whether --link argument (used in gitlab.sh above) also need to be passed in Kubernetes. Although i am currently deploying both containers on single host but will be creating cluster of each (PostgreSQL and GitLab) later, so just wanted to confirm whether inter-host communication will automatically be taken care of by Kubernetes. If not, then what options can be explored?
You should first try to represent your run statements into a docker-compose.yml file. Which is quite easy and it would turn something like below
version: '3'
services:
postgresql:
image: postgres:9.6-2
environment:
- "POSTGRES_DB=gitlabhq_production"
- "POSTGRES_USER=gitlab"
- "POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password"
volumes:
- /srv/docker/gitlab/postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql
gitlab:
image: sameersbn/gitlab:9.4.5
ports:
- "443:443"
- "80:80"
environment:
- "GITLAB_PORT=80"
- "GITLAB_SSH_PORT=10022"
- "GITLAB_SECRETS_DB_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-A"
- "GITLAB_SECRETS_SECRET_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-B"
- "GITLAB_SECRETS_OTP_KEY_BASE=64-char-key-C"
volumes:
- /srv/docker/gitlab/gitlab:/home/git/dataNow there is a amazing tool name kompose from kompose.io which does the conversion part for you. If you convert the above you will get the related files
$ kompose convert -f docker-compose.yml
WARN Volume mount on the host "/srv/docker/gitlab/gitlab" isn't supported - ignoring path on the host
WARN Volume mount on the host "/srv/docker/gitlab/postgresql" isn't supported - ignoring path on the host
INFO Kubernetes file "gitlab-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "postgresql-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "gitlab-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "gitlab-claim0-persistentvolumeclaim.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "postgresql-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "postgresql-claim0-persistentvolumeclaim.yaml" createdNow you have to fix the volume mount part as per kubernetes. This completes 80% of the work and you just need figure out the rest 20%
Here is a cat of all the generate files, so that you can just see what kind of files are generated
