This is experimental integration with the cluster-api. It is very much not production ready (and currently barely works).

We plug in our own bootstrap provider with the goal of enabling cluster-api nodes to join a kOps cluster.

Create a cluster on GCP

Note: the name & zone matter, we need to match the values we'll create later in the CAPI resources.

kops create cluster clusterapi.k8s.local --zones us-east4-a
kops update cluster clusterapi.k8s.local --yes --admin
kops validate cluster --wait=10m

TODO: Install cert-manager

Install CAPI and CAPG

cd clusterapi
kubectl apply ---server-side -f manifests/build

Install our CRDs

kustomize build config | kubectl apply --server-side -f -

Remove any stuff left over from previous runs

kubectl delete machinedeployment --all
kubectl delete gcpmachinetemplate --all

# Very carefully create a MachineDeployment matching our configuration

Run our controller, which populates the secret with the bootstrap script

go run .
