Ultramarine Kanopy is a lightweight and easy to setup operating system optimized for Kubernetes.
It is based on Ultramarine Linux, a Fedora remix with a focus on ease of use hardware support with proprietary drivers and firmware included.
Kanopy is based on the Fedora CoreOS project and is designed to be a plug and play operating system for managing Kubernetes clusters.
You can run Kanopy on a virtual machine, on a bare metal server, or even a Raspberry Pi. It automatically configures itself to start a Kubernetes cluster with a configuration file, and initializes the cluster on first boot.
This repository contains the Kanopy helper service, which is responsible for bootstrapping and managing the cluster, and the scripts to build a Kanopy image.
Kanopy uses the vanilla Kubernetes distribution, and has options to install various CNIs and other addons such as:
...and more!
- Implement config schema
- Apply configs to cluster (WIP)
- Finish writing helper (WIP)
- Add YAML include macros
- Build web UI for cluster management
- Add support for more addons
- Helm chart manager in web UI
At the moment, Kanopy is still in development and does not yet have a bootable image release, only the OSTree build is available through GHCR.
To build a CoreOS image out of the Docker image, install coreos-assembler
NOTE: Currently, building CoreOS images are not yet supported, see coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker#1151. In the meanwhile, you can rebase from an existing CoreOS installation. And we will work on a COSA project to build Kanopy images.
rpm-ostree rebase --reboot ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ultramarine/kanopy:38Make sure to install the configuration file to /etc/kanopy/config.yaml before rebasing.
You can also write an Ignition config to write the config first, then rebase to Kanopy, and then reboot.
