awesome-home-kubernetes VS cluster-template

Also check out the awesome kubernetes@home repo where many homelabbers share their configs.

Sorry I'm not familiar with this. Are you referring to this?

https://github.com/k8s-at-home/awesome-home-kubernetes https://github.com/k8s-at-home/template-cluster-k3s

To see it in action be sure to check out my repository or the many others here.

Make it usable and link to the best place with k3s in action: https://github.com/k8s-at-home/awesome-home-kubernetes

Nice but I suggest going to https://github.com/k8s-at-home/awesome-home-kubernetes and learn from the best at this topic ;)

Check out Flux V2. It syncs a git repo with your cluster, allowing you to define your infrastructure as code. It will keep your cluster synced with your repo and detect changes. A number of example repos are Here and onedr0p did a example repo here There's many options for structuring folder, I'd recommend you have a look at a few repos and pick one you like. The linked template is a good start, as it helps avoid dependency hell with a crd folder that starts before the YAML that needs the crd defined. Many people on the awesome list also run ansible for full infrastructure as code. I spent a lot of time perfecting my setup to go from blank Ubuntu VM to my cluster with a few keystrokes. Running it in git also helps you be able to use things like renovate bot to keep versions up to date. As for namespaces, everyone had their own method, but about using kube-system. Also, keep a eye out for services that refuse to have their name space changed.

k8s is a lot easier for homelabs than it used to be, and imo it's quicker than nix for building a declarative homelab. templates like this one can deploy a cluster in a few hours: https://github.com/onedr0p/cluster-template

here's my home assistant deployment as a single file: https://github.com/pl4nty/homelab/blob/main/kubernetes/clust...

I deliberately nuked my onprem cluster a few weeks ago, and was fully restored within 2 hours (including host OS reinstalls). and most of that was waiting for backup restores over my slow internet connection

Magical setups like this often get a lot of bad rap, but if you already understand Ansible and know Linux etc, you might find this repo a good start to building out your own cluster using gitops: https://github.com/onedr0p/flux-cluster-template

more of an end-to-end solution than a build-it-yourself, but this was a huge help in my understanding of k8s and the other tech like gitops - https://github.com/onedr0p/flux-cluster-template

idk how it'd scale for a larger operation, but flux+sops+age has worked great for me. based on https://github.com/onedr0p/flux-cluster-template

Here is a really good and VERY thorough example of pulling that all together: https://github.com/onedr0p/flux-cluster-template
