Set up a kubernetes cluster on IPFS team's machines

[flyingzumwalt]

Set up a kubernetes cluster on IPFS team's machines. So that we can run the tests from #102. This is related to #122.

Minikube is a very easy way of getting Kubernetes to run locally. Look into using that for development locally: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube

I don't know much about kubernetes

[flyingzumwalt]

@victorbjelkholm or @hsanjuan are you available to help with this? It's quickly becoming a big blocker for the data.gov sprint. We underestimated the learning curve of getting a kubernetes test cluster spun up.

I can try to help out but that'll move my attention the interop sprint.

I don't want to mess up the interop sprint but we're badly blocked here. @hsanjuan can you help?

[hsanjuan]

@flyingzumwalt I don't have experience with kubernetes so I'd be starting at 0. And I also have my sprintino...

I haven't been able to find which are the specific problems though? Is minikube not working for you or @Kubuxu ?

[Kubuxu]

Setting up minikube isn't that easy if you don't want to have VirtualBox on your machine (it is a bit problematic), we mostly wanted to have kubernetes cluster running so we could test on it instead of minikube.

[hsanjuan]

And you don't want to have VirtualBox? and kvm?

[Kubuxu]

Yeah, I got it running on kvm/libvirt.
For Arch users you need docker-machine-kvm from AUR.
