danebarentine/k8s-monitor repository overview

Simple Golang client for watching Kubernetes Events. Can be run out of cluster or in cluster.

Currently I'm using this in a cluster that has a Fluentd -> Loggly daemon set running. This allows me to log Kubernetes events which Fluentd picks up and sends to Loggly.

⁠How to use this image

---

⁠Out of cluster

Looks for ~/.kube/config and uses the context set to connect to the cluster

⁠In cluster

If a kubectl config file cannot be found it will create an in cluster connection using the namespace service account

⁠Permissions

If Kubernetes authorization is enabled the account being used will need to have access to listen for events on all namespaces.
