Contains scripts for creating and deleting a cluster on AWS EKS.

Creating EKS Cluster

To create EKS Cluster run:

./eks-create.sh

This will:

• Create EKS Cluster using eksctl
• Create AWS Load Balancer Controller and
• Deploy the Kubernetes Dashboard

Edit Cluster Configuration in eksctl-cluster.yaml file.

Make sure you add all the Namespaces that you want to run on Fargate.

Access the Kubernetes Dashboard

Start the proxy

This will start the proxy, listen on port 8080, listen on all interfaces, and will disable the filtering of non-localhost requests. This command will continue to run in the background of the current terminal’s session. kubectl proxy --port=8080 --address=0.0.0.0 --disable-filter=true &

Access the Dasboard

http://localhost:8080/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/#/overview?namespace=default

Get the authentication token

aws eks get-token --cluster-name test-cluster --region us-west-1

Delete the Cluster

If you have active services in your cluster that are associated with a load balancer, you must delete those services before deleting the cluster so that the load balancers are deleted properly. Otherwise, you can have orphaned resources in your VPC that prevent you from being able to delete the VPC. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/delete-cluster.html

Delete all Ingresses:

kubectl delete ingress production-ingress-prod -n production &&
kubectl delete ingress staging-ingres-staging -n staging
