A Kubernetes custom Controller to watch & forward Kubernetes Events to Grafana Loki with Promtail, push them and their correlated Logs as alerts to Slack

Description

Refer to this medium article for more analytical information

Getting Started

You’ll need a Kubernetes cluster to run against. You can use KIND or K3S/K3D to get a local cluster for testing, or run against a remote cluster. Note: Your controller will automatically use the current context in your kubeconfig file (i.e. whatever cluster kubectl cluster-info shows).

Running on the cluster

  1. Provide enviroment variables

You are going to need to provide the values of CLUSTER_NAME, LOKI_PUSH_GATEWAY_URL and OPENAI_API_KEY as environment variables (just with source from an .env file if you are running locally) or as a ConfigMap if you are installing on a cluster

  1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:

Fill in samples with the necessary Slack tokens:

apiVersion: events.kvnts/v1alpha1
kind: SinksConfig
metadata:
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/name: sinksconfig
    app.kubernetes.io/instance: sinksconfig-sample
    app.kubernetes.io/part-of: kvnts
    app.kubernetes.io/managed-by: kustomize
    app.kubernetes.io/created-by: kvnts
  name: sinksconfig-sample
spec:
  slack:
    botToken: "xoxb-"
    channelID: "C0"
    appLevelToken: "xapp-1-"
    debug: false
  excludedReasons: [ "FailedMount" ]

You can completely omit excludedReasons, this is just an example of how you could in a declarative way to ignore Kubernetes Events for specific set of Reasons

and then install them in the cluster:

kubectl apply -f config/samples/
  1. Build and push your image to the location specified by IMG:
make docker-build docker-push IMG=<some-registry>/kvnts:tag
  1. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:
make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/kvnts:tag

Uninstall CRDs

To delete the CRDs from the cluster:

make uninstall

Undeploy controller

UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:

make undeploy

Contributing

// TODO(user): Add detailed information on how you would like others to contribute to this project

How it works

This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern.

It uses Controllers, which provide a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources until the desired state is reached on the cluster.

Test It Out

  1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:
make install
  1. Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):
make run

NOTE: You can also run this in one step by running: make install run

Modifying the API definitions

If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using:

make manifests

NOTE: Run make --help for more information on all potential make targets
