# Accessing Agones via the Kubernetes API | ||
|
||
It's likely that we will want to programmatically interact with Agones. Everything that can be done | ||
via the `kubectl` and yaml configurations can also be done via | ||
the [Kubernetes API](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/kubernetes-api/). | ||
|
||
Installing Agones creates several [Custom Resource Definitions (CRD)](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/api-extension/custom-resources), | ||
which can be accessed and manipulated through the Kubernetes API. | ||
|
||
Kubernetes has multiple [client libraries](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/client-libraries/), however, | ||
at time of writing, only | ||
the [Go](https://github.com/kubernetes/client-go) and | ||
[Python](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/) clients are documented to support accessing CRDs. | ||
|
||
This can be found in the [Accessing a custom resource](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/api-extension/custom-resources/#accessing-a-custom-resource) | ||
section of the Kubernetes documentation. | ||
|
||
At this time, we recommend interacting with Agones through the Go client that has been generated in this repository, | ||
but other methods may also work as well. | ||
|
||
## Go Client | ||
|
||
Kubernetes Go Client tooling generates a Client for Agones that we can use to interact with the Agones | ||
installation on our Kubernetes cluster. | ||
|
||
- [Godoc for the Agones Client](https://godoc.org/agones.dev/agones/pkg/client/clientset/versioned) | ||
- [Godoc for the standard Kubernetes Client](https://godoc.org/k8s.io/client-go) | ||
|
||
### Authentication | ||
|
||
This client uses the same authentication mechanisms as the Kubernetes API. | ||
|
||
If you plan to run your code in the same cluster as the Agones install, have a look at the | ||
[in cluster configuration](https://github.com/kubernetes/client-go/tree/master/examples/in-cluster-client-configuration) | ||
example from the Kubernetes Client. | ||
|
||
If you plan to run your code outside the Kubernetes cluster as your Agones install, | ||
look at the [out of cluster configuration](https://github.com/kubernetes/client-go/tree/master/examples/out-of-cluster-client-configuration) | ||
example from the Kubernetes client. | ||
|
||
### Example | ||
|
||
The following is an example of a in-cluster configuration, that creates a `Clientset` for Agones | ||
and then creates a `GameServer`. | ||
|
||
```go | ||
package main | ||
|
||
import ( | ||
"fmt" | ||
|
||
"agones.dev/agones/pkg/apis/stable/v1alpha1" | ||
"agones.dev/agones/pkg/client/clientset/versioned" | ||
corev1 "k8s.io/api/core/v1" | ||
metav1 "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/apis/meta/v1" | ||
"k8s.io/client-go/rest" | ||
"k8s.io/client-go/kubernetes" | ||
) | ||
|
||
func main() { | ||
config, err := rest.InClusterConfig() | ||
if err != nil { | ||
logger.WithError(err).Fatal("Could not create in cluster config") | ||
} | ||
|
||
// Access to standard Kubernetes resources through the Kubernetes Clientset | ||
// We don't actually need this for this example, but it's just here for | ||
// illustrative purposes | ||
kubeClient, err := kubernetes.NewForConfig(config) | ||
if err != nil { | ||
logger.WithError(err).Fatal("Could not create the kubernetes clientset") | ||
} | ||
|
||
// Access to the Agones resources through the Agones Clientset | ||
// Note that we reuse the same config as we used for the Kubernetes Clientset | ||
agonesClient, err := versioned.NewForConfig(config) | ||
if err != nil { | ||
logger.WithError(err).Fatal("Could not create the agones api clientset") | ||
} | ||
|
||
// Create a GameServer | ||
gs := &v1alpha1.GameServer{ObjectMeta: metav1.ObjectMeta{GenerateName: "udp-server", Namespace: "default"}, | ||
Spec: v1alpha1.GameServerSpec{ | ||
Template: corev1.PodTemplateSpec{ | ||
Spec: corev1.PodSpec{ | ||
Containers: []corev1.Container{{Name: "udp-server", Image: "gcr.io/agones-images/udp-server:0.1"}}, | ||
}, | ||
}, | ||
}, | ||
} | ||
newGS, err := agonesClient.StableV1alpha1().GameServers("default").Create(gs) | ||
if err != nil { | ||
panic(err) | ||
} | ||
|
||
fmt.Printf("New game servers' name is: %s", newGS.ObjectMeta.Name) | ||
} | ||
|
||
``` | ||
|
||
## Direct Access to the REST API via Kubectl | ||
|
||
If there isn't a client written in your preferred language, it is always possible to communicate | ||
directly with Kubernetes API to interact with Agones. | ||
|
||
The Kubernetes API can be authenticated and exposed locally through the | ||
[`kubectl proxy`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-kubernetes-api/http-proxy-access-api/) | ||
|
||
|
||
For example: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
$ kubectl proxy & | ||

|
||
# list all Agones endpoints | ||
$ curl http://localhost:8001/apis | grep agones -A 5 -B 5 | ||

The [Verb Resources](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/api-conventions.md#verbs-on-resources) | ||
section provide the more details on the API conventions that are used in the Kubernetes API. | ||
|
||
It may also be useful to look at the [API patterns for standard Kubernetes resources](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubernetes-api/v1.9/#-strong-write-operations-strong--54). |
