etcd-initer

This etcd-initer is a simple k8s init container used for etcd cluster. It creates an etcd starting args from its environment variables

Why need etcd-initer

In most of time, when creating a etcd cluster, we know the ip or DNS name of members in cluster, peer and listen ports, and mostly importantly we usually give each member a name. All of these data can be formed as --initial-cluster parameter for etcd to start. In k8s deployment though, no matter it's a replicasets or a daemonsets, there's no easy way to create one single config file that could determine the mapping between ip and name we wanted to assign to a etcd member. Upstream etcd gave an example shows deploying in k8s by creating 3 individual pod and make them listen on all ips, this is not going to scale.

What is etcd-initer

etcd-initer is a container designed to be used as init container for etcd members, it based on busybox and a simple shell script to generate a etcd args file, and the file can be used for starting etcd cluster. Below is a typical usage of etcd-initer container as part of daemonset and using host network:

initContainers:
- name: etcd-init
  image: ferest/etcd-initer:latest
  env:
    - name: ETCD_INIT_ARGSFILE
      value: /etc/etcd/etcd-args
    - name: ETCD_INIT_LISTEN_PORT
      value: 2379
    - name: ETCD_INIT_PEER_PORT
      value: 2380
    - name: ETCD_INIT_CLUSTER
      value: etcd0=http://192.168.1.3:2380,etcd1=http://192.168.1.4:2380,etcd2=http://192.168.1.5:2380
    - name: ETCD_INIT_DATA_DIR
      value: /var/lib/etcd/
  volumeMounts:
    - name: etcd-conf-dir
      mountPath: /etc/etcd/
containers:
- name: etcd-node
  image: quay.io/coreos/etcd:v3.2.4
  command: ["sh", "-c"]
  args:
    - /usr/local/bin/etcd
    - "$(cat $ETCD_INIT_ARGSFILE)"
  env:
    - name: ETCD_INIT_ARGSFILE
      value: /etc/etcd/etcd-args
  volumeMounts:
    - name: etcd-conf-dir
      mountPath: /etc/etcd/
    - name: etcd-data-dir
      mountPath: /var/lib/etcd/
volumes:
- name: etcd-data-dir
  hostPath:
    path: /var/lib/etcd/
- name: etcd-conf-dir
  hostPath:
    path: /etc/etcd/
