dashboard VS kaniko

Setting up and interacting with your first cluster can be overwhelming. Just like me, you might have come across the infamous kubernetes/dashboard, followed the installation instructions, and asked yourself: "What did I just do and why exactly does this work the way it works?" And after some tinkering with your cluster, you might have installed even more external tools that help you with some specific aspects of cluster management, providing you with either a CLI or a Web UI.

Loki needs Promtail

Kibana needs Elasticsearch

I'm not sure if this has good enough log viewing https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard

Created service account (followed this link: https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Creating-sample-user)

The Kubernetes Dashboard could work for this use case.

yaml GITHUB_URL=https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/releases VERSION_KUBE_DASHBOARD=$(curl -w '%{url_effective}' -I -L -s -S ${GITHUB_URL}/latest -o /dev/null | sed -e 's|.*/||') sudo k3s kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/${VERSION_KUBE_DASHBOARD}/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml

paste the token created. Have fun! source1 source2

At the end of the guide, two web applications will be deployed: the sample ASP.NET Core app from Microsoft and Kubernetes dashboard. Both served on custom local domains with trusted TLS.

Here's an option developed by the Kubernetes folks, https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard . There are several more options out there if you search for alternatives to this.

Kubernetes Dashboard GitHub tells:

sorry I misspoke this is the pattern I was thinking of - https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/blob/master/modules/web/Dockerfile

If all you need to do is build container, you can use https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko

Kaniko for building the container images

kaniko

You should maybe look into Kaniko or use some other build tool

If you are using the docker socket just for building container images, you might want to look into kaniko. It doesn't use docker to build images. If you use the socket also for starting containers (we are actually doing that in our CI pipelines), you could think about limiting the pods Kubernetes schedules on a node (you can change the default of 110 using the kubelet config file).

Check out Kaniko for building containers https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko . Only issue is it doesnt support windows containers.

It took less than 5 minutes to install. It quickly analysed the repo and identified easy ways to make the project more secure. Priya Wadhwa, Kaniko

I'd suggest to take a look at the Kaniko project, combined with custom container images in Lambda functions.

kaniko is a tool that allows you to build container images inside Kubernetes without the need for the Docker daemon. Effectively, it allows you to build Docker images without docker build.

Kubernetes prefers to pull containers from registries. You may be able to work around it by specifying a local image in your Kube manifest. Both https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko and/ or https://www.devspace.sh/ may help.
