Snake

ncurses + kubernetes + snake

Usage Instructions

1. The snake accepts a kubeconfig file and deploys kubernetes resources everytime the snake collects food
   • This can be optionally disabled when the game starts
   • The config can also be omitted entirely
2. Before playing make sure your current kubectl context is a cluster that you are allowed to make changes to
   • the only scenario where kube-snake will clean up after itself is if you provide a kubeconfig file and omit a bundle directory (see commands below)
   • the python client doesn't have a mechanism yet for kubectl delete -f until this pr gets merged
3. Before starting the game load kubernetes yaml files into a bundle/ directory
   • yaml files in this directory will be deployed one by one as you collect food for the snake

Docker instructions

• pull the image:

docker pull mcmull27/snake:latest

• only snake

docker run -it \
    -e COLUMNS="$(tput cols)" \
    -e LINES="$(tput lines)" \
    mcmull27/snake

• kube mode using local kubeconfig

docker run -it \
    -e COLUMNS="$(tput cols)" \
    -e LINES="$(tput lines)" \
    -v $HOME/.kube/config:/home/snake/.kube/config \
    mcmull27/snake

• using custom bundle (directory of kube manifests to deploy)

docker run -it \
    -e COLUMNS="$(tput cols)" \
    -e LINES="$(tput lines)" \
    -v $HOME/.kube/config:/home/snake/.kube/config \
    -v $(pwd)/bundle:/home/snake/bundle
    mcmull27/snake
