Detailed Description of KubeVPN
KubeVPN
KubeVPN offers a Cloud-Native Dev Environment that seamlessly connects to your Kubernetes cluster network.
Gain access to the Kubernetes cluster network effortlessly using service names or Pod IP/Service IP. Facilitate the interception of inbound traffic from remote Kubernetes cluster services to your local PC through a service mesh and more.
For instance, you have the flexibility to run your Kubernetes pod within a local Docker container, ensuring an identical environment, volume, and network setup. With KubeVPN, empower yourself to develop applications entirely on your local PC!

You can see that it will start up two containers with docker, mapping to pod two container, and share port with same
network, you can use localhost:port
to access another container. And more, all environment、volume and network are the same as remote kubernetes pod, it is
truly consistent with the kubernetes runtime. Makes develop on local PC come true.

Here is how to access pod in local docker container
export authors_pod=`kubectl get pods -l app=authors -n default -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}'`
export authors_pod_ip=`kubectl get pod $authors_pod -n default -o jsonpath='{.status.podIP}'`
curl -kv -H "foo: bar" http://$authors_pod_ip:80/health
Verify logs of nginx container
docker logs $(docker ps --format '{{.Names}}' | grep nginx_default_kubevpn)
If you just want to start up a docker image, you can use a simple way like this:

If you want to specify the image to start the container locally, you can use the parameter --dev-image. When the
image does not exist locally, it will be pulled from the corresponding mirror warehouse. If you want to specify startup
parameters, you can use --entrypoint parameter, replace it with the command you want to execute, such
as --entrypoint /bin/bash, for more parameters, see kubevpn dev --help.
DinD ( Docker in Docker ) use kubevpn in Docker
If you want to start the development mode locally using Docker in Docker (DinD), because the program will read and
write the /tmp directory, you need to manually add the parameter -v /tmp:/tmp (outer docker) and another thing is
you
need to special parameter --network (inner docker) for sharing network and pid
Example:
docker run -it --privileged --sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /tmp:/tmp -v ~/.kube/config:/root/.kube/config --platform linux/amd64 naison/kubevpn:latest

FAQ
1, What should I do if the dependent image cannot be pulled, or the inner environment cannot access docker.io?
Answer: here are two solutions to solve this problem
- Solution 1: In the network that can access docker.io, transfer the image in the command
kubevpn versionto your own private image registry, and then add option--imageto special image when starting the command. Example:
➜ ~ kubevpn version
KubeVPN: CLI
Version: v2.0.0
Daemon: v2.0.0

Image is docker.io/naison/kubevpn:v2.0.0, transfer this image to private docker registry
docker pull docker.io/naison/kubevpn:v2.0.0
docker tag docker.io/naison/kubevpn:v2.0.0 [docker registry]/[namespace]/[repo]:[tag]
docker push [docker registry]/[namespace]/[repo]:[tag]
Then you can use this image, as follows:
➜ ~ kubevpn connect --image [docker registry]/[namespace]/[repo]:[tag]
Starting connect

- Solution 2: Use options
--transfer-image, enable this flags will transfer image from default image to--imagespecial address automatically。 Example
➜ ~ kubevpn connect --transfer-image --image nocalhost-team-docker.pkg.coding.net/nocalhost/public/kubevpn:v2.0.0

This is because of your docker-desktop required resource is less than pod running request resource, it OOM killed, so
you can add more resource in your docker-desktop setting Preferences --> Resources --> Memory
3, Using WSL( Windows Sub Linux ) Docker, when use mode kubevpn dev, can not connect to cluster network, how to solve this problem?
Answer:
this is because WSL'Docker using Windows's Network, so if even start a container in WSL, this container will not use WSL network, but use Windows network
Solution:
- 1): install docker in WSL, not use Windows Docker-desktop
- 2): use command
kubevpn connecton Windows, and then startupkubevpn devin WSL - 3): startup a container using command
kubevpn connecton Windows, and then startupkubevpn dev --network container:$CONTAINER_IDin WSL
4，After use command kubevpn dev enter develop mode，but can't assess kubernetes api-server，occur error 172.17.0.1:443 connect refusued，how to solve this problem?
Answer:
Maybe k8s network subnet is conflict with docker subnet
Solution:
- Use option
--connect-mode containerto startup commandkubevpn dev - Modify
~/.docker/daemon.json, add not conflict subnet, eg:"bip": "172.15.0.1/24".
➜ ~ cat ~/.docker/daemon.json
{
"builder": {
"gc": {
"defaultKeepStorage": "20GB",
"enabled": true
}
},
"experimental": false,
"features": {
"buildkit": true
},
"insecure-registries": [
],
}
add subnet not conflict, eg: 172.15.0.1/24
➜ ~ cat ~/.docker/daemon.json
{
"builder": {
"gc": {
"defaultKeepStorage": "20GB",
"enabled": true
}
},
"experimental": false,
"features": {
"buildkit": true
},
"insecure-registries": [
],
"bip": "172.15.0.1/24"
}
restart docker and retry
