# Port-Bridge
Port-Bridge simplifies Kubernetes service exposure by providing a unified solution to manage node ports and external traffic through a single load balancer. This operator automates the process of creating, updating, and managing network traffic distribution to Kubernetes services, reducing the complexity and cost associated with maintaining multiple load balancers.
## Features
- **Unified Load Balancer Management:** Centralize the management of external traffic through a single load balancer for multiple services.
- **Dynamic Service Discovery:** Automatically detects and configures new services that require external exposure.
- **Cost Efficiency:** Reduce the costs associated with provisioning and maintaining multiple load balancers.
- **Customizable Traffic Distribution:** Easily configure rules for traffic distribution among services.
- **High Availability:** Ensures high availability of services with intelligent health checks and failover mechanisms.
### Running on the cluster
1. Install Instances of Custom Resources:
```sh
kubectl apply -f config/samples/
```
2. Build and push your image to the location specified by `IMG`:
```sh
make docker-build docker-push IMG=/port-bridge:tag
```
3. Deploy the controller to the cluster with the image specified by `IMG`:
```sh
make deploy IMG=/port-bridge:tag
```
### Uninstall CRDs
To delete the CRDs from the cluster:
```sh
make uninstall
```
### Undeploy controller
UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:
```sh
make undeploy
```
### How it works
This project aims to follow the Kubernetes [Operator pattern](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/operator/).
It uses [Controllers](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/architecture/controller/),
which provide a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources until the desired state is reached on the cluster.
### Test It Out
1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:
```sh
make install
```
2. Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):
```sh
make run
```
**NOTE:** You can also run this in one step by running: `make install run`
### Modifying the API definitions
If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using:
```sh
make manifests
```
**NOTE:** Run `make --help` for more information on all potential `make` targets
