k8s-scaler

This project is a kubernetes resource scaler. The main objective of this project is to create 10's/100's/1000's of kubernetes resources with ease. Infact by just using a single command.

Usage

Clone this repository, you can find k8s-scaler executable under bin directory. Running ./build.sh generates latest k8s-scaler executable.

or

Download the k8s-scaler binary from github releases

vineeth@vineeth-Latitude-7490 /bin  $ ./k8s-scaler --help

k8s-scaler helps to create 1000's kubernetes resources uing a single command.
It is built to ease the k8s resources simulation easy in large kubernetes clusters.,

Usage:
  k8s-scaler [command]

Available Commands:
  create      To create deployments/daemonsets/pods/namespaces/statefulsets/jobs/cronjobs
  delete      To delete deployments/daemonsets/pods/namespaces/statefulsets/jobs/cronjobs
  help        Help about any command
  list        To list namespaces, deployments, pods, daemonsets, statefulsets, jobs, cronjobs.

Flags:
  -h, --help                help for k8s-scaler
  -k, --kubeconfig string   Path to the KUBECONFIG file.

Use "k8s-scaler [command] --help" for more information about a command.

Note:

You can configure the cluster details by passing the KUBECONFIG file path to --kubeconfig global flag.

./k8s-scaler create pods --scale 500 --containers 10 --kubeconfig /home/vineeth/gke.yaml

If --kubeconfig flag is not provided. k8s-scaler tries to read KUBECONFIG environment variable.

If KUBECONFIG env variable is not set. k8s-scaler tries to find InClusterConfig using k8s client-go library.

Note: Deletion of resources can be performed same as above provided example for pods/daemonsets/statefulsets/replicationcontrollers/replicasets/jobs/cronjobs.

You also add pass node-selector & toleration while resource creation to schedule the workloads on the desired node. For now, we only accept one pair of node-selector and toleration. Also, toleration operator is by default set to "Equal" and effect is set to "NoSchedule" key & value from toleration is configurable using flag.

To list namespaces, deployments, pods, daemonsets, statefulsets, jobs, cronjobs

To create & delete periodically the deployments with provided time interval (i.e in seconds)

The below cmd would create & delete 100 deployments with replicas as 50 for every 10 seconds in scale namespace.

./k8s-scaler chaos d --scale 100 -r 50 --time 10 -n scale

TODO:

1. Support custom resources creation at scale. As CRD already exists in cluster. CR creation can be done using k8s-scaler by passing --kind value but custom resources spec formation needs to be taken care in k8s-scaler.
2. Support services and other Kubernetes resources.
