workshopctl

A tool for running workshops easily in the cloud!

WARNING: This tool is pre-alpha and under heavy development. Don't use it for anything very important quite yet! However, contributions are very welcome!

Please check out these slides for an up-to-date description of this project.

Quick Start

1. workshopctl init -- Give information about what cloud provider to use (and its token), and what domain to serve on (e.g. workshopctl.kubernetesfinland.com)
2. workshopctl gen -- Generate unique sets of Kubernetes manifests, one per cluster.
3. workshopctl apply -- Creates the clusters in the cloud, and applies the manifests

Boom! A Visual Studio Code instance running in the browser is now available at e.g. cluster-01.workshopctl.kubernetesfinland.com in the given example. The VS Code terminal has full privileges to the Kubernetes cluster, so the attendee may easily access kubectl, helm and docker (if needed) for completing the tasks in your workshop. You can also provide pre-created materials in VS Code for the attendee.

How this works
