# Kubernetes C# Client

# Usage
[Nuget Package](https://www.nuget.org/packages/KubernetesClient/)
```sh
dotnet add package KubernetesClient
```
## Authentication/Configuration
You should be able to use a standard KubeConfig file with this library,
see the `BuildConfigFromConfigFile` function below. Most authentication
methods are currently supported, but a few are not, see the
[known-issues](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/csharp#known-issues).
You should also be able to authenticate with the in-cluster service
account using the `InClusterConfig` function shown below.
## Monitoring
There is optional built-in metric generation for prometheus client metrics.
The exported metrics are:
* `k8s_dotnet_request_total` - Counter of request, broken down by HTTP Method
* `k8s_dotnet_response_code_total` - Counter of responses, broken down by HTTP Method and response code
* `k8s_request_latency_seconds` - Latency histograms broken down by method, api group, api version and resource kind
There is an example integrating these monitors in the examples/prometheus directory.
## Sample Code
### Creating the client
```c#
// Load from the default kubeconfig on the machine.
var config = KubernetesClientConfiguration.BuildConfigFromConfigFile();
// Load from a specific file:
var config = KubernetesClientConfiguration.BuildConfigFromConfigFile(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("KUBECONFIG"));
// Load from in-cluster configuration:
var config = KubernetesClientConfiguration.InClusterConfig()
// Use the config object to create a client.
var client = new Kubernetes(config);
```
### Listing Objects
```c#
var namespaces = client.ListNamespace();
foreach (var ns in namespaces.Items) {
Console.WriteLine(ns.Metadata.Name);
var list = client.ListNamespacedPod(ns.Metadata.Name);
foreach (var item in list.Items)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.Metadata.Name);
}
}
```
### Creating and Deleting Objects
```c#
var ns = new V1Namespace
{
Metadata = new V1ObjectMeta
{
Name = "test"
}
};
var result = client.CreateNamespace(ns);
Console.WriteLine(result);
var status = client.DeleteNamespace(ns.Metadata.Name, new V1DeleteOptions());
```
## Examples
There is extensive example code in the [examples directory](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/csharp/tree/master/examples).
### Running the examples
```bash
git clone git@github.com:kubernetes-client/csharp.git
cd csharp\examples\simple
dotnet run
```
## Known issues
While the preferred way of connecting to a remote cluster from local machine is:
```c#
var config = KubernetesClientConfiguration.BuildConfigFromConfigFile();
var client = new Kubernetes(config);
```
Not all auth providers are supported at moment [#91](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/csharp/issues/91#issuecomment-362920478). You can still connect to a cluster by starting the proxy command:
```bash
$ kubectl proxy
Starting to serve on 127.0.0.1:8001
```
and changing config:
```c#
var config = new KubernetesClientConfiguration { Host = "http://127.0.0.1:8001" };
```
Notice that this is a workaround and is not recommended for production use.
## Testing
The project uses [XUnit](https://xunit.github.io) as unit testing framework.
To run the tests:
```bash
cd csharp\tests
dotnet restore
dotnet test
```
# Generating the Client Code
## Prerequisites
You'll need a Linux machine with Docker.
The generated code works on all platforms supported by .NET or .NET Core.
Check out the generator project into some other directory
(henceforth `$GEN_DIR`).
```bash
cd $GEN_DIR/..
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes-client/gen
```
## Generating code
```bash
# Where REPO_DIR points to the root of the csharp repository
cd ${REPO_DIR}/csharp/src/KubernetesClient
${GEN_DIR}/openapi/csharp.sh generated ../csharp.settings
```
# Version Compatibility
| SDK Version | Kubernetes Version | .NET Targeting |
|-------------|--------------------|---------------------------------------|
| 6.0 | 1.22 | netstandard2.1;net5 |
| 5.0 | 1.21 | netstandard2.1;net5 |
| 4.0 | 1.20 | netstandard2.0;netstandard2.1 |
| 3.0 | 1.19 | netstandard2.0;net452 |
| 2.0 | 1.18 | netstandard2.0;net453 |
| 1.6 | 1.16 | netstandard1.4;netstandard2.0;net452; |
| 1.4 | 1.13 | netstandard1.4;net451 |
| 1.3 | 1.12 | netstandard1.4;net452 |
* Starting form `2.0`, [dotnet sdk versioning](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/csharp/issues/400) adopted
* `Kubernetes Version` here means the version sdk models and apis were generated from
* Kubernetes api server guarantees the compatibility with `n-2` version. for exmaple, 1.19 based sdk should work with 1.21 cluster, but no guarantee works with 1.22 cluster. see also <https://kubernetes.io/releases/version-skew-policy/>
