Hai semuanya, di materi kali ini kita akan membahas membuat kubernetes cluster di local/learning environment menggunakan minikube di Mac OS (Intel Based)

  1. What you’ll need?
  2. Installing Container or virtual machine as backend minikube
  3. Installing minikube, kubernetes client
  4. Create cluster using Virtualbox driver (Deprecated)
  5. Create cluster using Docker driver
  6. Create cluster using hyperkit driver

Ok langsung aja kita bahas ke materi yang pertama

What you’ll need?

Untuk menginstall minikube di Mac OS kita membutuhkan:

  1. 2 CPUs or more
  2. 2GB of free memory
  3. 20GB of free disk space
  4. Internet connection
  5. Container or virtual machine manager, such as: Docker, Parallels, Podman, VirtualBox, or VMware Fusion

Klo saya sendiri disini masih menggunakan Macbook Pro 13” four thunderbold 2017 dengan specification seperti berikut:

system properties

Untuk Mac yang menggunakan architecture intel kita bisa menggunakan beberapa driver yaitu

  1. Docker / Podman
  2. Virtualbox (Deprecated)
  3. VMware fusion
  4. Parallels
  5. Hyperkit

Untuk proses installasi docker di mac sudah pernah saya bahas di artikel berikut

Untuk proses installasi Virtualbox, simple kita tinggal download file dmg pada official websitenya Oracle Virtualbox disini kemudian kita tinggal Open and drag VirtualBox ke folder Application.

Jika sudah terinstall maka tampilannya seperti berikut:

virtualbox

Installing minikube binary

Untuk install minikube juga kita bisa menggunakan beberapa cara yaitu

  1. binary download
  2. homebrew

Klo saya lebih suka menggunakan package manager homebrew, jadi pertama buat temen-temen yang belum install homebrew bisa install dulu jika sudah kita lanjutkan dengan perintah berikut:

brew install minikube

If which minikube fails after installation via brew, you may have to remove the old minikube links and link the newly installed binary:

brew unlink minikube
brew link minikube

Jika sudah success, coba check di terminal dengan perintah seperti berikut:

minikube version

Hasilnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ minikube version
minikube version: v1.24.0
commit: 76b94fb3c4e8ac5062daf70d60cf03ddcc0a741b

Installing kubernetes client

You must use a kubectl version that is within one minor version difference of your cluster. For example, a v1.23 client can communicate with v1.22, v1.23, and v1.24 control planes. Using the latest compatible version of kubectl helps avoid unforeseen issues.

Untuk install kubernetes client / kubectl kita bisa menggunakan beberapa cara yaitu

  1. binary download
  2. homebrew

Sama seperti sebelumnya kita bisa install menggunakan perintah berikut:

brew install kubernetes-cli kustomize

jika dijalankan maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ kubectl version --client
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"23", GitVersion:"v1.23.1", GitCommit:"86ec240af8cbd1b60bcc4c03c20da9b98005b92e", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2021-12-16T11:33:37Z", GoVersion:"go1.17.5", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"darwin/amd64"}

Create cluster using Virtualbox driver (Deprecated)

Setelah kita menginstall tools untuk belajar kubernetes seperti virtualbox atau docker sebagai kubernetes runtime serta minikube ,kubectl dan kustomize. Sekarang kita akan membuat single kubernetes cluster dengan minikube menggunakan driver virtualbox.

Untuk membuat kita bisa menggunakan perintah minikube start untuk lebih jelasnya kita bisa lihat dokumentasinya seperti berikut:

minikube start -h

Jika dijalankan hasilnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ minikube start -h

Secara default jika kita membuat single cluster dengan minikube menggunakan Virtualbox biasanya kita akan dibuatkan VM dengan configurasi

  • 2CPUs
  • 2GB memory
  • 20GB storage
  • Driver virtualbox

Nah saya mau override nilai tersebut untuk membuat clusternya dengan configurasi seperti berikut:

Jika dijalankan maka outputnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ minikube start --memory 4g --driver virtualbox

πŸ„  Done! kubectl is now configured to use "minikube" cluster and "default" namespace by default

Nah sekarang jika kita lihat di virtualbox, akan jalan VM linux seperti berikut:

vm-kubernetes-cluster

Dengan begitu kita sudah bisa menggunakan kubernetes clusternya, sekarang kita coba check dengan perintah seperti berikut:

Jika dijalankan maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ kubectl version

➜  ~ kubectl cluster-info

To further debug and diagnose cluster problems, use 'kubectl cluster-info dump'.

Nah sekarang kita sudah bisa menggunakan kubernetes cluster tersebut untuk belajar atau sebagai learning environment kita.

Create cluster using Docker driver

Selain menggunakan virtualbox yang hanya support dengan processor intel saja saat ini, kita juga bisa menggunakan Docker sebagai drivernya minikube. Dengan Docker driver ini jadi kita bisa gunakan untuk MacOS dengan processor Apple silicon.

Untuk membuat single cluster dengan Docker driver, syaratnya adalah

  1. Install docker-desktop untuk mac
  2. Setting container-resources seperti increse memory, dan cpu

Untuk settingan docker-desktop disini saya menggunakan settingan seperti berikut:

docker-desktop

Nah sekarang kita buat clusternya dengan perintah seperti berikut:

Nah jadi klo kita setting memory lebih besar dari yang kita setting di Docker Desktop biasanya akan error create cluster dengan notifikasi seperti berikut:

❌  Exiting due to MK_USAGE: Docker Desktop has only 3934MB memory but you specified 3993MB

Jika sudah success, maka hasilnya seperti berikut:

➜  ~ minikube start --driver docker --memory 3500MB

πŸ„  Done! kubectl is now configured to use "minikube" cluster and "default" namespace by default

Nah sekarang jika kita lihat di docker list container, disinilah kubernetes engine berjalan.

➜  ~ docker container ls
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                                 COMMAND                  CREATED         STATUS         PORTS                                                                                                                                  NAMES

Setelah itu kita bisa, menggunakan kubernetes clusternya untuk learning environtment.

Create cluster using Hyperkit driver

Selain menggunakan virtualbox yang secara performa akan memakan resource karena secara architecture menggunakan dedicated resource cpu serta memory dan juga jika temen-temen menggunakan OS Ventura jadi gak bisa jalan virtual-machinenya. Ada alternative lainnya yaitu menggunakan hyperkit

HyperKit is a toolkit for embedding hypervisor capabilities in your application. It includes a complete hypervisor, based on xhyve/bhyve, which is optimized for lightweight virtual machines and container deployment.

HyperKit currently only supports macOS using the Hypervisor.framework. It is a core component of Docker Desktop for Mac.

Untuk proses installasi Hyperkit, simple kita bisa menggunakan package manager seperti homebrew, kemudian jalankan perintah berikut:

brew install hyperkit

Setelah terinstall temen-temen bisa check dengan menggunakan perintah

hyperkit -h

Nah sekarang kita buat clusternya dengan perintah seperti berikut:

Jika dijalankan hasilnya seperti berikut:

~ Β» minikube start --driver hyperkit --memory 3G --cpus 2
