It provides more readable output and has additional APIs for using it inside a unit test. goleak.IgnoreCurrent is needed to filter out the goroutine that gets started when importing go.opencensus.io/stats/view. In order to handle background goroutines that get created on demand and cannot be stopped (like the one for LogzHealth), a helper function ensures that those are running before calling goleak.IgnoreCurrent. Keeping those goroutines running is not a problem and thus not worth the effort of adding new APIs to stop them. Other goroutines are genuine leaks for which no fix is available. Those get suppressed via IgnoreTopFunction, which works as long as that function is unique enough. Example output for the leak fixed in https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115423: E0202 09:30:51.641841 74789 etcd.go:205] "EtcdMain goroutine check" err=< found unexpected goroutines: [Goroutine 4889 in state chan receive, with k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/watch.(*Broadcaster).loop on top of the stack: goroutine 4889 [chan receive]: k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/watch.(*Broadcaster).loop(0xc0076183c0) /nvme/gopath/src/k8s.io/kubernetes/vendor/k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/watch/mux.go:268 +0x65 created by k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/watch.NewBroadcaster /nvme/gopath/src/k8s.io/kubernetes/vendor/k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/watch/mux.go:77 +0x116 >
Kubernetes (K8s)
Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If your company wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically scheduled, and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
To start using K8s
See our documentation on kubernetes.io.
Try our interactive tutorial.
Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
To use Kubernetes code as a library in other applications, see the list of published components.
Use of the k8s.io/kubernetes module or k8s.io/kubernetes/... packages as libraries is not supported.
To start developing K8s
The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
You have a working Go environment.
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make
You have a working Docker environment.
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make quick-release
For the full story, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide, and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
Community Meetings
The Calendar has the list of all the meetings in Kubernetes community in a single location.
Adopters
The User Case Studies website has real-world use cases of organizations across industries that are deploying/migrating to Kubernetes.
Governance
Kubernetes project is governed by a framework of principles, values, policies and processes to help our community and constituents towards our shared goals.
The Kubernetes Community is the launching point for learning about how we organize ourselves.
The Kubernetes Steering community repo is used by the Kubernetes Steering Committee, which oversees governance of the Kubernetes project.
Roadmap
The Kubernetes Enhancements repo provides information about Kubernetes releases, as well as feature tracking and backlogs.
