Chapter 13. Configuring Skupper sites using YAML


Using YAML files to configure Skupper allows you to use source control to track and manage Skupper network changes.

13.1. Creating a Skupper site using YAML

Using YAML files to create Skupper sites allows you to use source control to track and manage Skupper network changes.

Prerequisites

  • Skupper is installed in the cluster or namespace you want to target.
  • You are logged into the cluster.

Procedure

  1. Create a YAML file to define the site, for example, my-site.yaml:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: ConfigMap
    metadata:
      name: skupper-site
    data:
      name: my-site
      console: "true"
      console-user: "admin"
      console-password: "changeme"
      flow-collector: "true"

    The YAML creates a site with a console and you can create tokens from this site.

    To create a site that has no ingress:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: ConfigMap
    metadata:
      name: skupper-site
    data:
      name: my-site
      ingress: "none"
  2. Apply the YAML file to your cluster:

    kubectl apply -f ~/my-site.yml

Additional resources

See the Section 13.3, “Site ConfigMap YAML reference” section for more reference.

13.2. Configuring services using annotations

After creating and linking sites, you can use Kubernetes annotations to control which services are available on the service network.

13.2.1. Exposing simple services on a service network using annotations

This section provides an alternative to the skupper expose command, allowing you to annotate existing resources to expose simple services on the service network.

Prerequisites

  • A site with a service you want to expose

Procedure

  1. Log into the namespace in your cluster that is configured as a site.
  2. Create a deployment, some pods, or a service in one of your sites, for example:

    $ kubectl create deployment hello-world-backend --image quay.io/skupper/hello-world-backend

    This step is not Skupper-specific, that is, this process is unchanged from standard processes for your cluster.

  3. Annotate the kubernetes resource to create a service that can communicate on the service network, for example:

    $ kubectl annotate deployment backend "skupper.io/address=backend" "skupper.io/port=8080" "skupper.io/proxy=tcp"

    The annotations include:

    • skupper.io/proxy - the protocol you want to use, tcp, http or http2. This is the only annotation that is required. For example, if you annotate a simple deployment named backend with skupper.io/proxy=tcp, the service is exposed as backend and the containerPort value of the deployment is used as the port number.
    • skupper.io/address - the name of the service on the service network.
    • skupper.io/port - one or more ports for the service on the service network.
    Note

    When exposing services, rather than other resources like deployments, you can use the skupper.io/target annotation to avoid modifying the original service. For example, if you want to expose the backend service:

    $ kubectl annotate service backend "skupper.io/address=van-backend" "skupper.io/port=8080" \
    "skupper.io/proxy=tcp" "skupper.io/target=backend"

    This allows you to delete and recreate the backend service without having to apply the annotation again.

  4. Check that you have exposed the service:

    $ skupper service status -v
    Services exposed through Skupper:
    ╰─ backend:8080 (tcp)
       ╰─ Sites:
          ├─ 4d80f485-52fb-4d84-b10b-326b96e723b2(west)
          │  policy: disabled
          ╰─ 316fbe31-299b-490b-9391-7b46507d76f1(east)
             │ policy: disabled
             ╰─ Targets:
                ╰─ backend:8080 name=backend-9d84544df-rbzjx
    Note

    The related targets for services are only displayed when the target is available on the current cluster.

13.2.2. Understanding Skupper annotations

Annotations allow you to expose services on the service network. This section provides details on the scope of those annotations

skupper.io/address

The name of the service on the service network. Applies to:

  • Deployments
  • StatefulSets
  • DaemonSets
  • Services
skupper.io/port

The port for the service on the service network. Applies to:

  • Deployments
  • StatefulSets
  • DaemonSets
skupper.io/proxy

The protocol you want to use, tcp, http or http2. Applies to:

  • Deployments
  • StatefulSets
  • DaemonSets
  • Services
skupper.io/target

The name of the target service you want to expose. Applies to:

  • Services
skupper.io/service-labels

A comma separated list of label keys and values for the exposed service. You can use this annotation to set up labels for monitoring exposed services. Applies to:

  • Deployments
  • DaemonSets
  • Services

13.3. Site ConfigMap YAML reference

Using YAML files to configure Skupper requires that you understand all the fields so that you provision the site you require.

The following YAML defines a Skupper site:

apiVersion: v1
data:
  name: my-site
  console: "true"
  flow-collector: "true"
  console-authentication: internal
  console-user: "username"
  console-password: "password"
  cluster-local: "false"
  edge: "false"
  service-sync: "true"
  ingress: "none"
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: skupper-site
name
Specifies the site name.
console

Enables the skupper console, defaults to false.

Note

You must enable console and flow-collector for the console to function.

flow-collector
Enables the flow collector, defaults to false.
console-authentication
Specifies the skupper console authentication method. The options are openshift, internal, unsecured.
console-user
Username for the internal authentication option.
console-password
Password for the internal authentication option.
cluster-local
Only accept connections from within the local cluster, defaults to false.
edge
Specifies whether an edge site is created, defaults to false.
service-sync
Specifies whether the services are synchronized across the service network, defaults to true.
ingress
Specifies whether the site supports ingress. If you do not specify a value, the default ingress ('loadbalancer' on Kubernetes, 'route' on OpenShift) is enabled. This allows you to create tokens usable from remote sites.
Note

All ingress types are supported using the same parameters as the skupper CLI.
