# xk6-kubernetes
A k6 extension for interacting with Kubernetes clusters while testing.
## Build
To build a custom `k6` binary with this extension, first ensure you have the prerequisites:
- [Go toolchain](https://go101.org/article/go-toolchain.html)
- Git
1. Download [xk6](https://github.com/grafana/xk6):
```bash
go install go.k6.io/xk6/cmd/xk6@latest
```
2. [Build the k6 binary](https://github.com/grafana/xk6#command-usage):
```bash
xk6 build --with github.com/grafana/xk6-kubernetes
```
The `xk6 build` command creates a k6 binary that includes the xk6-kubernetes extension in your local folder. This k6 binary can now run a k6 test using [xk6-kubernetes APIs](#apis).
### Development
To make development a little smoother, use the `Makefile` in the root folder. The default target will format your code, run tests, and create a `k6` binary with your local code rather than from GitHub.
```shell
git clone [email protected]:grafana/xk6-kubernetes.git
cd xk6-kubernetes
make
```
Using the `k6` binary with `xk6-kubernetes`, run the k6 test as usual:
```bash
./k6 run k8s-test-script.js
```
# Usage
The API assumes a `kubeconfig` configuration is available at any of the following default locations:
* at the location pointed by the `KUBECONFIG` environment variable
* at `$HOME/.kube`
# APIs
## Generic API
This API offers methods for creating, retrieving, listing and deleting resources of any of the supported kinds.
| Method | Parameters| Description |
| ------------ | ---| ------ |
| apply | manifest string| creates a Kubernetes resource given a YAML manifest or updates it if already exists |
| create | spec object | creates a Kubernetes resource given its specification |
| delete | kind | removes the named resource |
| | name |
| | namespace|
| get | kind| returns the named resource |
| | name |
| | namespace |
| list | kind| returns a collection of resources of a given kind
| | namespace |
| update | spec object | updates an existing resource
### Examples
#### Creating a pod using a specification
```javascript
import { Kubernetes } from 'k6/x/kubernetes';
const podSpec = {
apiVersion: "v1",
kind: "Pod",
metadata: {
name: "busybox",
namespace: "testns"
},
spec: {
containers: [
{
name: "busybox",
image: "busybox",
command: ["sh", "-c", "sleep 30"]
}
]
}
}
export default function () {
const kubernetes = new Kubernetes();
kubernetes.create(pod)
const pods = kubernetes.list("Pod", "testns");
console.log(`${pods.length} Pods found:`);
pods.map(function(pod) {
console.log(` ${pod.metadata.name}`)
});
}
```
#### Creating a job using a YAML manifest
```javascript
import { Kubernetes } from 'k6/x/kubernetes';
const manifest = `
apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
name: busybox
namespace: testns
spec:
template:
spec:
containers:
- name: busybox
image: busybox
command: ["sleep", "300"]
restartPolicy: Never
`
export default function () {
const kubernetes = new Kubernetes();
kubernetes.apply(manifest)
const jobs = kubernetes.list("Job", "testns");
console.log(`${jobs.length} Jobs found:`);
pods.map(function(job) {
console.log(` ${job.metadata.name}`)
});
}
```
## Helpers
The `xk6-kubernetes` extension offers helpers to facilitate common tasks when setting up a tests. All helper functions work in a namespace to facilitate the development of tests segregated by namespace. The helpers are accessed using the following method:
| Method | Parameters| Description |
| -------------| ---| ------ |
| helpers | namespace | returns helpers that operate in the given namespace. If none is specified, "default" is used |
The methods above return an object that implements the following helper functions:
| Method | Parameters| Description |
| ------------ | --------| ------ |
| getExternalIP | service | returns the external IP of a service if any is assigned before timeout expires|
| | timeout in seconds | |
| waitPodRunning | pod name | waits until the pod is in 'Running' state or the timeout expires. Returns a boolean indicating of the pod was ready or not. Throws an error if the pod is Failed. |
| | timeout in seconds | |
| waitServiceReady | service name | waits until the given service has at least one endpoint ready or the timeout expires |
| | timeout in seconds | |
### Examples
### Creating a pod and wait until it is running
```javascript
import { Kubernetes } from 'k6/x/kubernetes';
let podSpec = {
apiVersion: "v1",
kind: "Pod",
metadata: {
name: "busybox",
namespace: "default"
},
spec: {
containers: [
{
name: "busybox",
image: "busybox",
command: ["sh", "-c", "sleep 30"]
}
]
}
}
export default function () {
const kubernetes = new Kubernetes();
// create pod
kubernetes.create(pod)
// get helpers for test namespace
const helpers = kubernetes.helpers()
// wait for pod to be running
const timeout = 10
if (!helpers.waitPodRunning(pod.metadata.name, timeout)) {
console.log(`"pod ${pod.metadata.name} not ready after ${timeout} seconds`)
}
}
```
