# traefik-playground
Demonstrating how to setup Traefik on a k3s cluster using arkade and k3d.
> This is just a learning playground
## Install k3d
k3d is a little helper to run k3s in docker, where k3s is the lightweight Kubernetes distribution by Rancher. It actually removes millions of lines of code from k8s. If you just need a learning playground, k3s is definitely your choice.
Check out [k3d Github Page](https://github.com/rancher/k3d#get) to see the installation guide.
> When creating a cluster, ``k3d`` utilises ``kubectl`` and ``kubectl`` is not part of ``k3d``. If you don't have ``kubectl``, please install and set up [here](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/).
Once you've installed ``k3d`` and ``kubectl``, run
```
k3d create -n traefik-playground
```
```
INFO[0000] Created cluster network with ID 9f3c0c8caf0712b7f59970afd3c5db8159362b6ea34c84788f57b8e41a9011b3
INFO[0000] Created docker volume k3d-traefik-playground-images
INFO[0000] Creating cluster [traefik-playground]
INFO[0000] Creating server using docker.io/rancher/k3s:v1.0.1...
INFO[0004] SUCCESS: created cluster [traefik-playground]
INFO[0004] You can now use the cluster with:
export KUBECONFIG="$(k3d get-kubeconfig --name='traefik-playground')"
kubectl cluster-info
```
Run ``k3d list`` to make sure the status is running.
```
+--------------------+------------------------------+---------+---------+
| NAME | IMAGE | STATUS | WORKERS |
+--------------------+------------------------------+---------+---------+
| traefik-playground | docker.io/rancher/k3s:v1.0.1 | running | 0/0 |
+--------------------+------------------------------+---------+---------+
```
We need to make ``kubectl`` to use the kubeconfig for that cluster.
```
export KUBECONFIG="$(k3d get-kubeconfig --name='traefik-playground')"
```
## Install arkade
Moving on to [arkade](https://github.com/alexellis/arkade), it provides a simple Golang CLI with strongly-typed flags to install charts and apps to your cluster in one command. Originally, the codebase is derived from [k3sup](https://github.com/alexellis/k3sup) which I've contributed last month.
```
curl -sLS https://dl.get-arkade.dev | sudo sh
```
Once you've installed it, you should see the following
```
New version of arkade installed to /usr/local/bin

Version: 0.2.2
Git Commit: 9063b6eb16deae5978805f71b0e749828c815490
```
``arkade`` currently does not support non-existing namespace for ``traefik``. Create the namespace first.
```
kubectl create namespace traefik-playground
```
Install Traefik with dashboard via ``arkade``. You can use an alias ``ark`` or ``arkade``.
```
arkade install traefik2 --dashboard -n traefik-playground
```
```

Thanks for using arkade!# Get started at: https://docs.traefik.io/v2.0/
# Install with an optional dashboard
arkade install traefik2 --dashboard
# Find your LoadBalancer IP:
kubectl get svc -n kube-system traefik
```
Check out the traefik service
```
kubectl get svc -n traefik-playground traefik
```
Forwarding from [::1]:8082 -> 8080
```
kubectl port-forward svc/traefik 8082:80 -n traefik-playground &
```
> Currently there are some issues with the dashboard. Reported to ``arkade`` team and pending for a fix.
## Clean up
```
k3d delete -n traefik-playground
```
