kubefirst-api

Kubefirst API runtime implementation.

Running Locally

The API is available at http://localhost:8081/api/v1 while running.

Build the Binary

The API can be run locally for testing. It can be run by using make build and then calling the binary in the bin/ directory or by using go run ..

Leverage air for Live Reloading Locally

Prerequsite - Install air.

go install github.com/cosmtrek/air@latest

Run air from the root of the repository. This will watch go files and live rebuild a local running instance of kubefirst-api.

Use with the CLI

If you want to use your local API version with the CLI, you need to do two things:

  1. Set the K1_LOCAL_DEBUG environment variable to true with export K1_LOCAL_DEBUG=true.
  2. Run the console application locally also by following those instructions.

Be sure that you do not change the default port for the console (3000), and the default one for the API (8081) for this to work.

Prerequisites for local development

A .devcontainer configuration is provided to allow for a full-featured development environment.

For local development, we need to have a k3d cluster where the kubefirst api can store information in secrets

  • Download k3d
  • Create a cluster k3d cluster create dev
  • Dowload the kubeconfig k3d kubeconfig write dev
  • Update the K1_LOCAL_KUBECONFIG_PATH environment variable with the kubeconfig location
  • Enjoy!
Environment Variables

Some variables are required, others are optional depending on deployment type.

Variable Description Required
IN_CLUSTER Specify whether or not the API is running inside a Kubernetes cluster. By default, this is assumed false. No
CLUSTER_ID The ID of the cluster running API. Yes
CLUSTER_TYPE Cluster type. Yes
INSTALL_METHOD Description of the method through which the API was deployed. Example: helm Yes
K1_ACCESS_TOKEN Access token in authorization header to prevent unsolicited in-cluster access Yes
K1_LOCAL_DEBUG Identifies the api execution as local debug mode Yes
K1_LOCAL_KUBECONFIG_PATH kubeconfig path location for k3d local cluster Yes

local environment variables

see this .env example for the necessary values

Be sure to set IS_CLUSTER_ZERO to true if you want to run the API without having console running.

Provider Support

The following providers are available for use with the API.

Provider Status Supported Operations Supported Git Providers
AWS Beta Create, Delete GitHub, GitLab
Civo Beta Create, Delete GitHub, GitLab
DigitalOcean Beta Create, Delete GitHub, GitLab
Vultr Beta Create, Delete GitHub, GitLab

Creating a Cluster

Authentication Credentials

In order to create a cluster, authentication credentials must be provided in one of two ways:

Kubernetes Secret

If a Kubernetes Secret called kubefirst-auth exists, the API will attempt to read cloud provider credentials from this Secret.

The Secret format is expected to have the following keys based on which clouds you are deploying to:

aws-access-key-id
aws-secret-access-key
aws-session-token

civo-token

do-token
do-spaces-key
do-spaces-token

vultr-api-key

Each key must have the appropriate value set in order for the API to successfully create a cluster.

API Call Parameters

If there is no Secret, the API will then attempt to read from the parameters passed in via the API call.

This would require the following parameters added to the API call depending on which cloud provider is being used:

Akamai
{
  "akamai_auth": {
    "token": "my-akamai-token"
  }
}
AWS
{
  "aws_auth": {
    "access_key_id": "foo",
    "secret_access_key": "bar",
    "session_token": "baz"
  }
}
Civo
{
  "civo_auth": {
    "token": "my-civo-token"
  }
}
DigitalOcean
{
  "do_auth": {
    "token": "my-do-token",
    "spaces_key": "foo",
    "spaces_secret": "bar"
  }
}
Google Cloud
{
  "gcp_auth": {
    "key_file": "my-google-credentials-json-keyfile-stringified-no-newline-characters",
    "project_id": "google cloud project id"
  }
}
Vultr
{
  "vultr_auth": {
    "token": "my-vultr-api-key"
  }
}

If either of these options is missing, the API will return an error.

API Call
Akamai

You must use the authentication strategy above to set credentials before running.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admin_email": "your@email.com", "cloud_provider": "akamai", "domain_name": "kubefirst.cloud", "git_owner": "kubefirst-cloud", "git_provider": "github", "git_token": "ghp_...", "type": "mgmt"}'
AWS

You must use the authentication strategy above to set credentials before running.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admin_email": "your@email.com", "cloud_provider": "aws", "cloud_region": "us-east-1", "domain_name": "kubefirst.cloud", "git_owner": "kubefirst-cloud", "git_provider": "github", "git_token": "ghp_...", "type": "mgmt"}'
Civo

You must use the authentication strategy above to set credentials before running.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admin_email": "your@email.com", "cloud_provider": "civo", "cloud_region": "nyc1", "domain_name": "your-dns.io", "git_owner": "your-dns-io", "git_provider": "github", "git_token": "ghp_...", "type": "mgmt"}'
DigitalOcean

Kubefirst does not create a DigitalOcean space for you. You must create one ahead of time and provide the key and secret when creating a DigitalOcean cluster. The space acts as an S3-compatible storage bucket for Terraform state and other cluster operations.

You must use the authentication strategy above to set credentials before running.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admin_email": "your@email.com", "cloud_provider": "digitalocean", "cloud_region": "nyc3", "domain_name": "kubefunk.de", "git_owner": "kubefunk-de", "git_provider": "github", "git_token": "ghp_...", "type": "mgmt"}'
Vultr

You must use the authentication strategy above to set credentials before running.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admin_email": "your@email.com", "cloud_provider": "vultr", "cloud_region": "ewr", "domain_name": "kubesecond.com", "git_owner": "your-dns-io", "git_provider": "github", "git_token": "ghp_...", "type": "mgmt"}'
Deleting a Cluster
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster/my-cool-cluster

Authentication

The API expects an Authorization header with the content Bearer <API key>. For example:

❯ curl -X GET "localhost:8081/api/v1/cluster" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer my-api-key" \
     -H "Content-Type:application/json"

The provided bearer token is validated against an auto-generated key that gets stored in secret kubefirst-initial-secrets provided by this chart. It's then consumed by this same chart's deployment as an environment variable K1_ACCESS_TOKEN for the comparison. The console application will have access to this same namespaced secret and can leverage the bearer token to authorize calls to the kubefirst-api and kubefirst-api-ee services.

Swagger UI

When the app is running, the UI is available via http://localhost:8081/swagger/index.html.

Updating Swagger Docs

Swagger UI is generated using gin-swagger. Tagged routes will generate documentation.

Any time godoc defs for routes are changed, swag init should be run.

In order to generate docs:

go install github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest
make updateswagger
