Creating a minikube cluster for testing

If you do not have an existing cluster, the eda-server-operator can be deployed on a Minikube cluster for testing purposes. Due to different OS and hardware environments, please refer to the official Minikube documentation for further information.

$ minikube start --cpus=4 --memory=6g --addons=ingress
😄  minikube v1.23.2 on Fedora 34
✨  Using the docker driver based on existing profile
👍  Starting control plane node minikube in cluster minikube
🚜  Pulling base image ...
🏃  Updating the running docker "minikube" container ...
🐳  Preparing Kubernetes v1.22.2 on Docker 20.10.8 ...
🔎  Verifying Kubernetes components...
    ▪ Using image gcr.io/k8s-minikube/storage-provisioner:v5
    ▪ Using image k8s.gcr.io/ingress-nginx/controller:v1.0.0-beta.3
    ▪ Using image k8s.gcr.io/ingress-nginx/kube-webhook-certgen:v1.0
    ▪ Using image k8s.gcr.io/ingress-nginx/kube-webhook-certgen:v1.0
🔎  Verifying ingress addon...
🌟  Enabled addons: storage-provisioner, default-storageclass, ingress
🏄  Done! kubectl is now configured to use "minikube" cluster and "default" namespace by default

Once Minikube is deployed, check if the node(s) and kube-apiserver communication is working as expected.

$ minikube kubectl -- get nodes

It is not required for kubectl to be separately installed since it comes already wrapped inside minikube. As demonstrated above, simply prefix minikube kubectl -- before kubectl command, i.e. kubectl get nodes would become minikube kubectl -- get nodes

Let's create an alias for easier usage:

$ alias kubectl="minikube kubectl --"
