kube-copilot 0.2.1

Kubernetes Copilot

Kubernetes Copilot

Kubernetes Copilot powered by OpenAI.

Features:

• Automate Kubernetes cluster operations using ChatGPT (GPT-4 or GPT-3.5).
• Diagnose and analyze the potential issues for Kubernetes workloads.
• Generate the Kubernetes manifests based on the provided prompt instructions.
• Utilize native kubectl and trivy commands for Kubernetes cluster access and security vulnerability scanning.

Install

Install Locally

Install the copilot with pip command below. It is highly recommended to use pipx or venv to install the copilot to avoid conflicts with other Python packages.

# Option 1: use pipx to install the copilot
pipx install kube-copilot

# Option 2: use venv to install the copilot
python3 -m venv copilotenv
source copilotenv/bin/activate
pip install kube-copilot

# Option 3: Use pip to install the copilot (not recommended)
pip install kube-copilot

Setup:

• Ensure kubectl is installed on the local machine and the kubeconfig file is configured for Kubernetes cluster access.
• Install trivy to assess container image security issues (for the audit command).
• Set the OpenAI API key as the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable to enable ChatGPT functionality.
  • For Azure OpenAI service, please set AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-key> and AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://<replace-this>.openai.azure.com/.

Run in Kubernetes

Option 1: Web UI with Helm (recommended)

# Option 1: OpenAI
export OPENAI_API_KEY="<replace-this>"
helm install kube-copilot kube-copilot \
  --repo https://feisky.xyz/kube-copilot \
  --set openai.apiModel=gpt-4 \
  --set openai.apiKey=$OPENAI_API_KEY

# Option 2: Azure OpenAI Service
export AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY="<replace-this>"
export AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="<replace-this>"
helm install kube-copilot kube-copilot \
  --repo https://feisky.xyz/kube-copilot \
  --set openai.apiModel=gpt-4 \
  --set openai.apiKey=$AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY \
  --set openai.apiBase=$AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT

# Forwarding requests to the service
kubectl port-forward service/kube-copilot 8080:80
echo "Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080 to use the copilot"

Option 2: CLI with kubectl

kubectl run -it --rm copilot \
  --env="OPENAI_API_KEY=$OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  --restart=Never \
  --image=ghcr.io/feiskyer/kube-copilot \
  -- execute --verbose 'What Pods are using max memory in the cluster'

kubectl run -it --rm copilot \
  --env="AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=$AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  --env="AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=$AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT" \
  --restart=Never \
  --image=ghcr.io/feiskyer/kube-copilot \
  -- execute --verbose 'What Pods are using max memory in the cluster'
