Development using Minikube

See the Minikube docs for instructions on launching a Minikube cluster.

Add CRDs from cluster-api

Once your cluster is running, the CRDs defined by the cluster-api project need to be added to the cluster.

kubectl apply -k vendor/sigs.k8s.io/cluster-api/config/crds/

Add CRDs from baremetal-operator

The actuator also uses the BareMetalHost custom resource that’s defined by the baremetal-operator.

kubectl apply -f vendor/github.com/metal3-io/baremetal-operator/deploy/crds/metal3_v1alpha1_baremetalhost_crd.yaml

Create a BareMetalHost

When a Machine gets created, the actuator looks for an available BareMetalHost to claim and then sets it to be provisioned to fulfill the request expressed by the Machine. Before creating a Machine, we can create a dummy BareMetalHost object. There’s no requirement to actually run the baremetal-operator to test the reconciliation logic of the actuator.

Refer to the baremetal-operator developer documentation for instructions and tools for creating BareMetalHost objects.

Run the Actuator

You can manually run the actuator from outside of the cluster for development and testing purposes. There’s a Makefile target which makes this easy.

make run

You can follow the output on the console to see information about what the actuator is doing. You can also proceed to create/update/delete Machines and BareMetalHosts to test the actuator logic.
