KubeEdge

KubeEdge is an open-source system for extending native containerized application orchestration capabilities to hosts at Edge.

note

This demo is based on crun's support

1. Setup Cloud Side (KubeEdge Master Node)

Install Go

$ wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf go1.17.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz

$ export PATH=/home/${user}/go/bin:$PATH
$ go version
go version go1.17.3 linux/amd64

Install CRI-O

Please see CRI-O Installation Instructions.

Install and Creating a cluster with kubeadm for K8s

Please see Creating a cluster with kubeadm.

Install K8s

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https curl
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/kubernetes-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list

sudo apt update
K_VER="1.21.0-00"
sudo apt install -y kubelet=${K_VER} kubectl=${K_VER} kubeadm=${K_VER}
sudo apt-mark hold kubelet kubeadm kubectl

Create a cluster with kubeadm

#kubernetes scheduler requires this setting to be done.
$ sudo swapoff -a
$ sudo vim /etc/fstab
mark contain swapfile of row

$ cat /etc/cni/net.d/100-crio-bridge.conf
{
"cniVersion": "0.3.1",
"name": "crio",
"type": "bridge",
"bridge": "cni0",
"isGateway": true,
"ipMasq": true,
"hairpinMode": true,
"ipam": {
"type": "host-local",
"routes": [
{ "dst": "0.0.0.0/0" },
{ "dst": "1100:200::1/24" }
],
"ranges": [
[{ "subnet": "10.85.0.0/16" }],
[{ "subnet": "1100:200::/24" }]
]
}
}
$ export CIDR=10.85.0.0/16
$ sudo kubeadm init --apiserver-advertise-address=192.168.122.160 --pod-network-cidr=$CIDR --cri-socket=/var/run/crio/crio.sock

$ mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
$ sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
$ sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

output:

Your Kubernetes control-plane has initialized successfully!

To start using your cluster, you need to run the following as a regular user:

mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

You should now deploy a Pod network to the cluster.
Run "kubectl apply -f [podnetwork].yaml" with one of the options listed at:
/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/addons/

You can now join any number of machines by running the following on each node
as root:

kubeadm join <control-plane-host>:<control-plane-port> --token <token> --discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:<hash>

To make kubectl work for your non-root user, run these commands, which are also part of the kubeadm init output:

mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

Setup KubeEdge Master Node

Please see Deploying using Keadm.

  1. At least one kubeconfig or master must be configured correctly so that it can be used to verify the version and other info of the k8s cluster.
  2. Please make sure the edge node can connect to the cloud node using the local IP of the cloud node, or you need to specify the public IP of the cloud node with the --advertise-address flag.
  3. --advertise-address(only worked since 1.3 release) is the address exposed by the cloud side (will be added to the SANs of the CloudCore certificate); the default value is the local IP.
wget https://github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge/releases/download/v1.8.0/keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar xzvf keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
cd keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64/keadm/
sudo ./keadm init --advertise-address=192.168.122.160 --kube-config=/home/${user}/.kube/config

output:

Kubernetes version verification passed, KubeEdge installation will start...
...
KubeEdge cloudcore is running, For logs visit: /var/log/kubeedge/cloudcore.log

2. Setup Edge Side (KubeEdge Worker Node)

You can use the CRI-O [install.sh] script to install CRI-O and crun on Ubuntu 20.04.

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/second-state/wasmedge-containers-examples/main/crio/install.sh | bash

Install Go on Edge Side

$ wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf go1.17.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz

$ export PATH=/home/${user}/go/bin:$PATH
$ go version
go version go1.17.3 linux/amd64

Get Token From Cloud Side

Run keadm gettoken on the cloud side will return the token, which will be used when joining edge nodes.

$ sudo ./keadm gettoken --kube-config=/home/${user}/.kube/config
27a37ef16159f7d3be8fae95d588b79b3adaaf92727b72659eb89758c66ffda2.eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE1OTAyMTYwNzd9.JBj8LLYWXwbbvHKffJBpPd5CyxqapRQYDIXtFZErgYE

Download KubeEdge and join edge nodes

Please see Setting different container runtime with CRI and Deploying using Keadm.

$ wget https://github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge/releases/download/v1.8.0/keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
$ cd keadm-v1.8.0-linux-amd64/keadm/

$ sudo ./keadm join \
--cloudcore-ipport=192.168.122.160:10000 \
--edgenode-name=edge \
--token=b4550d45b773c0480446277eed1358dcd8a02a0c214646a8082d775f9c447d81.eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE2Mzg4ODUzNzd9.A9WOYJFrgL2swVGnydpb4gMojyvyoNPCXaA4rXGowqU \
--remote-runtime-endpoint=unix:///var/run/crio/crio.sock \
--runtimetype=remote \
--cgroupdriver=systemd

Output:

Host has mosquit+ already installed and running. Hence skipping the installation steps !!!
...
KubeEdge edgecore is running, For logs visit: /var/log/kubeedge/edgecore.log

Get Edge Node Status From Cloud Side

Output:

kubectl get node
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
edge Ready agent,edge 10s v1.19.3-kubeedge-v1.8.2
master Ready control-plane,master 68m v1.21.0

3. Enable kubectl logs Feature

Before metrics-server deployed, kubectl logs feature must be activated, please see here.

4. Run a simple WebAssembly app

We can run the WebAssembly-based image from Docker Hub in the Kubernetes cluster.
