# Kubernetes deployments
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We use [Kubenix](https://kubenix.org/) to write Kubernetes deployments in Nix!

## Prerequisites
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To deploy to the Kubernetes cluster, first make sure you have an admin account on the cluster.
|
||
|
|
You can generate this using `nix run '.#gen-k3s-cert' <username> <servername> ~/.kube`, assuming you have SSH access to the master node.
|
||
|
|
This puts a private key, signed certificate and a kubeconfig in the kubeconfig directory
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Bootstrapping
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We are now ready to deploy to the Kubernetes cluster.
|
||
|
|
Deployments are done through an experimental Kubernetes feature called [ApplySets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-kubernetes-objects/declarative-config/#how-to-delete-objects).
|
||
|
|
Each applyset is responsible for a set number of resources within a namespace.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the cluster has not been initialized yet, we must bootstrap it first.
|
||
|
|
Run these deployments:
|
||
|
|
- `nix run '.#bootstrap-default-deploy'`
|
||
|
|
- `nix run '.#bootstrap-kube-system-deploy'`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Deployment
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now the cluster has been initialized and we can deploy applications.
|
||
|
|
To explore which applications we can deploy, run `nix flake show`.
|
||
|
|
Then, for each application, run `nix run '.#<application>-deploy'`.
|
||
|
|
Or, if you're lazy: `nix flake show --json | jq -r '.packages."x86_64-linux"|keys[]' | grep -- -deploy | xargs -I{} nix run ".#{}"`.
