Scheduled Scaler

In order to use the ScheduledScaler you will need to install the CRD and deploy the Scaling Controller into your Kubernetes cluster.

Requirements

• Kubernetes Version: 1.7+
• Kubernetes Cluster Settings:
  • "Legacy authorization": "Enabled"

Tested Environments

• Google Kubernetes Engine
  • Kubernetes Version: 1.9.3-gke.0, 1.7.15
  • Docker Version: 1.12.5
  • Golang Version: 1.9.4

Getting Started

Clone this repo

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/k8s.restdev.com && \
git clone https://github.com/k8s-restdev/scheduled-scaler.git $GOPATH/src/k8s.restdev.com/operators && \
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.restdev.com/operators

Install using Helm Chart

helm install scheduled-scaler artifacts/kubes/scaling/chart

Note: This uses the image stored at https://hub.docker.com/r/k8srestdev/scaling by default.

See chart README for detailed configuration options

Installation without Helm (and compiling binary yourself):

1. Install the CRD

kubectl create -f ./artifacts/kubes/scaling/crd.yml

2. Once you have the repo installed on your local dev you can test, build, push and deploy using make

Note: If you are just looking for a prebuilt image you can find the latest build here. Just add that image tag to the deployment yml in the artificats dir and apply to your kube-system namespace to get up and running without doing a fresh build :D

Using Make

The Makefile provides the following steps:

1. test - Run go unit tests
2. build - Build the go bin file and docker image locally
3. push - Push the built docker image to gcr (or another repository of your choice)
4. deploy - Deploy the updated image to your Kubernetes cluster

Each of these steps can be run in a single pass or can be used individually.

Examples

• Do all the things (kubectl)

# This example will test, build, push and deploy using kubectl's currently configured cluster
make OPERATOR=scaling PROJECT_ID=my_project_id

• Do all the things (kubernodes)

# This example will test, build, push and deploy using kubernodes
make OPERATOR=scaling PROJECT_ID=my_project_id DEPLOYBIN=kn KN_PROJECT_ID=my_kubernodes_project_id

Note: You only need to add KN_PROJECT_ID if it differs from PROJECT_ID

• Just build the image

make build OPERATOR=scaling PROJECT_ID=my_project_id

• Just push any image

make push IMAGE=myrepo/myimage:mytag

• Just deploy any image (kubectl)

make deploy OPERATOR=scaling IMAGE=myrepo/myimage:mytag

• Just deploy any image (kubernodes)

make deploy OPERATOR=scaling IMAGE=myrepo/myimage:mytag DEPLOYBIN=kn KN_PROJECT_ID=my_kubernodes_project_id

Now that you have all the resources required in your cluster you can begin creating ScheduledScalers.

Scheduled Scaler Spec

Note: This controller uses the following Cron Expression Format

HPA

apiVersion: "scaling.k8s.restdev.com/v1alpha1"
kind: ScheduledScaler
metadata:
  name: my-scheduled-scaler-1
spec:
  timeZone: America/Los_Angeles
  target:
    kind: HorizontalPodAutoscaler
    name: my-hpa
    apiVersion: autoscaling/v1
  steps:
  #run at 5:30am PST
  - runat: '0 30 5 * * *'
    mode: range
    minReplicas: 1
    maxReplicas: 5

Instance Group

apiVersion: "scaling.k8s.restdev.com/v1alpha1"
kind: ScheduledScaler
metadata:
  name: my-scheduled-scaler-2
spec:
  timeZone: America/Los_Angeles
  target:
    kind: InstanceGroup
    name: my-instance-group-name
    apiVersion: compute/v1
  steps:
  #run at 5:30am PST
  - runat: '0 30 5 * * *'
    mode: fixed
    replicas: 3

As you'll see above, you can target either instance groups (if you are on GKE) or hpa, but all the other options are the same.
