# Karpenter Example

Configuration in this directory creates an AWS EKS cluster with [Karpenter](https://karpenter.sh/) provisioned for managing compute resource scaling. In the example provided, Karpenter is running on EKS Fargate yet Karpenter is providing compute in the form of EC2 instances.

## Usage

To run this example you need to execute:

```bash
$ terraform init
$ terraform plan
$ terraform apply
```

Once the cluster is up and running, you can check that Karpenter is functioning as intended with the following command:

```bash
# First, make sure you have updated your local kubeconfig
aws eks --region eu-west-1 update-kubeconfig --name ex-karpenter

# Second, scale the example deployment
kubectl scale deployment inflate --replicas 5

# You can watch Karpenter's controller logs with
kubectl logs -f -n karpenter -l app.kubernetes.io/name=karpenter -c controller
```

You should see a new node named `karpenter.sh/provisioner-name/default` eventually come up in the console; this was provisioned by Karpenter in response to the scaled deployment above.

### Tear Down & Clean-Up

Because Karpenter manages the state of node resources outside of Terraform, Karpenter created resources will need to be de-provisioned first before removing the remaining resources with Terraform.

1. Remove the example deployment created above and any nodes created by Karpenter

```bash
kubectl delete deployment inflate
kubectl delete node -l karpenter.sh/provisioner-name=default
```

2. Remove the resources created by Terraform

```bash
# Necessary to avoid removing Terraform's permissions too soon before its finished
# cleaning up the resources it deployed inside the cluster
terraform state rm 'module.eks.aws_eks_access_entry.this["cluster_creator_admin"]' || true
terraform destroy
```

Note that this example may create resources which cost money. Run `terraform destroy` when you don't need these resources.
