Kubernetes Registry Plugin for micro

This is a plugin for go-micro that allows you to use Kubernetes as a registry.

Overview

This registry plugin makes use of Annotations and Labels on a Kubernetes pod to build a service discovery mechanism.

Gotchas

• Registering/Deregistering relies on the HOSTNAME Environment Variable, which inside a pod is the place where it can be retrieved from. (This needs improving)

Connecting to the Kubernetes API

Within a pod

If the --registry_address flag is omitted, the plugin will securely connect to the Kubernetes API using the pods "Service Account". No extra configuration is necessary.

Find out more about service accounts here. http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/accessing-the-cluster/

Outside of Kubernetes

Some functions of the plugin should work, but its not been heavily tested. Currently no TLS support.
