Examples
When your kubeconfig file is in the default location:
juju add-k8s myk8scloud
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --client
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --controller mycontroller
juju add-k8s --context-name mycontext myk8scloud
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --region cloudNameOrCloudType/someregion
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --cloud cloudNameOrCloudType
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --cloud cloudNameOrCloudType --region=someregion
juju add-k8s myk8scloud --cloud cloudNameOrCloudType --storage mystorageclass
To add a Kubernetes cloud using data from your kubeconfig file, when this file is not in the default location:
KUBECONFIG=path-to-kubeconfig-file juju add-k8s myk8scloud --cluster-name=my_cluster_name
To add a Kubernetes cloud using data from kubectl, when your kubeconfig file is not in the default location:
kubectl config view --raw | juju add-k8s myk8scloud --cluster-name=my_cluster_name
Details
Creates a user-defined cloud based on a k8s cluster.
The new k8s cloud can then be used to bootstrap into, or it can be added to an existing controller.
Use --controller option to add k8s cloud to a controller. Use --client option to add k8s cloud to this client.
Specify a non default kubeconfig file location using $KUBECONFIG environment variable or pipe in file content from stdin.
The config file can contain definitions for different k8s clusters, use --cluster-name to pick which one to use. It’s also possible to select a context by name using --context-name.
When running add-k8s the underlying cloud/region hosting the cluster needs to be detected to enable storage to be correctly configured. If the cloud/region cannot be detected automatically, use either –cloud <cloudType|cloudName> to specify the host cloud or –region <cloudType|cloudName>/<someregion> to specify the host cloud type and region.
Region is strictly necessary only when adding a k8s cluster to a JAAS controller. When using a standalone Juju controller, usually just --cloud is required.
Once Juju is aware of the underlying cloud type, it looks for a suitably configured storage class to provide operator and workload storage. If none is found, use of the --storage option is required so that Juju will create a storage class with the specified name.
If the cluster does not have a storage provisioning capability, use the –skip-storage option to add the cluster without any workload storage configured.
