This PS has a function which constructs a collection of Metal3 BareMetalHost resources, along with associated configuration Secrets. It solves for a couple of things: 1. pulling the nitty gritty details for generating BMH into one reusable place, 2. allowing the site-specific details to be filled in via catalogues of values This function leverages a couple of different plugins in sequence: The airshipctl Replacement plugin, which pulls the site-specific data from the catalogue documents into a Templater plugin configuration; and then the airshipctl Templater plugin, which generates a variable number of BMHs in a data-driven fashion. More details can be found in the README.md in this patchset. Closes: #245 Change-Id: I3ddbd36dc53ea6afbd633098c985f4b28bcbb793
Airshipctl
Airshipctl is a command-line interface that enables users to manage declarative infrastructure and software.
Airshipctl aims to provide a seamless experience for operators wishing to leverage the best open source options such as the Cluster API, Metal Kubed, Kustomize, and kubeadm by providing a straight forward and easily approachable interface.
This project is the heart of our effort to produce Airship 2.0, which has three main evolutions from Airship 1.0:
- Expand our use of entrenched upstream projects.
- Embrace Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRD) – everything becomes an object in Kubernetes.
- Make the Airship control plane ephemeral.
To learn more about the Airship 2.0 evolution, reference the Airship blog series.
