  2. Provision a Kubernetes CSI Driver

How do I build a Kubernetes storage.k8s.io csidriver?

In this guide, we will provision a Kubernetes CSI (Container Storage Interface) Driver using Pulumi. The CSI Driver allows Kubernetes to interface with various storage systems, enabling dynamic provisioning of persistent volumes.

Key Points

  • Define a CSI Driver in Kubernetes using Pulumi.
  • Specify necessary configurations such as attachRequired, podInfoOnMount, and volumeLifecycleModes.
  • Ensure all required metadata and specifications are included.
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes";

// Define the CSI Driver
const csiDriver = new k8s.storage.v1.CSIDriver("example-csi-driver", {
    metadata: {
        name: "example-csi-driver",
    },
    spec: {
        attachRequired: true,
        podInfoOnMount: true,
        volumeLifecycleModes: ["Persistent", "Ephemeral"],
        storageCapacity: true,
        fsGroupPolicy: "ReadWriteOnceWithFSType",
        tokenRequests: [{
            audience: "example-audience",
            expirationSeconds: 3600,
        }],
    },
});

// Export the name of the CSI Driver
export const csiDriverName = csiDriver.metadata.name;

Summary

In this guide, we provisioned a Kubernetes CSI Driver using Pulumi. We defined the necessary metadata and specifications, including attachment requirements, pod information on mount, volume lifecycle modes, and storage capacity. This setup allows Kubernetes to dynamically provision persistent volumes using the CSI Driver.
