k8s中初始化容器(init container)的作用及其使用方法

概述

在容器的部署过程中,有的时候需要在容器运行之前进行一些预配置的工作,比如下载配置,判断某些服务是否启动,修改配置等一些准备的工作,想要实现这些功能,在k8s中可以使用初始化容器,在应用容器运行之前进行一些预处理的工作。

本文档介绍在k8s中初始化容器的使用方法。

使用方法

以下的例子使用初始化容器,在nginx容器启动之前下载一个index.html文件

kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: initnginx
spec:
  initContainers:
  - name: install
    image: busybox
    command:
    - wget
    - "-O"
    - "/var/index.html"
    - "https://www.baidu.com"
  containers:
  - name: nginx
    image: 172.20.45.174:81/base/nginx:1.15-alpine
    ports:
    - containerPort: 80
  dnsPolicy: Default
EOF

查看pod的状态

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl get pod
NAME                          READY   STATUS     RESTARTS   AGE
cm-test-app                   1/1     Running    0          20h
cm-test-nginx                 1/1     Running    0          175m
cm-test-pod                   1/1     Running    0          20h
initnginx                     0/1     Init:0/1   0          16s  #在初始化阶段

nginx-test-5c7f8fc697-whx4g   1/1     Running    0          32d
web-0                         1/1     Running    0          32d
web-1                         1/1     Running    0          32d
web-2                         1/1     Running    0          32d

# 初始化容器运行完成后,pod状态变为Running

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl get pod
NAME                          READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
cm-test-app                   1/1     Running   0          20h
cm-test-nginx                 1/1     Running   0          178m
cm-test-pod                   1/1     Running   0          20h
initnginx                     1/1     Running   0          9s
nginx-test-5c7f8fc697-lrvpm   1/1     Running   0          32d
nginx-test-5c7f8fc697-whx4g   1/1     Running   0          32d
web-0                         1/1     Running   0          32d
web-1                         1/1     Running   0          32d
web-2                         1/1     Running   0          32d
[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# 

查看初始化容器的日志

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl logs initnginx -c install
Connecting to www.baidu.com (103.235.46.39:443)
wget: note: TLS certificate validation not implemented
saving to '/var/index.html'
index.html           100% |********************************|  2443  0:00:00 ETA
'/var/index.html' saved
[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]#

说明执行命令是成功的。

进入容器中,查看是否存在该文件

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl exec -it initnginx -- bash
[initnginx root:~]# cd /var/
[initnginx root:/var]# ls
cache  empty  git  lib  local  lock  log  opt  run  spool  tmp
[initnginx root:/var]# 

发现并没有该文件!

问题在于install容器和nginx容器不是同一个容器所以,下载的/var/index.html只是在install容器的/var目录下。

为了实现nginx可以访问初始化容器中的内容,可以挂载一个数据卷进行2个容器的共享,修改pod定义如下:

kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: initnginx
spec:
  initContainers:
  - name: install
    image: busybox
    command:
    - wget
    - "-O"
    - "/work-dir/index.html"
    - "https://www.baidu.com"
    volumeMounts:
    - name: workdir
      mountPath: /work-dir
  containers:
  - name: nginx
    image: 172.20.45.174:81/base/nginx:1.15-alpine
    ports:
    - containerPort: 80
    volumeMounts:
    - name: workdir
      mountPath: /usr/share/nginx/html
  dnsPolicy: Default
  volumes:
  - name: workdir
    emptyDir: {}
EOF

这样的化,2个容器中就都挂载了workdir这个数据卷,初始化容器中下载的文件,就可以被nginx应用容器来使用了。

创建pod后查看nginx容器中的文件

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl exec -it initnginx -- bash
[initnginx root:~]# cd /usr/share/nginx/
[initnginx root:/usr/share/nginx]# ls
html
[initnginx root:/usr/share/nginx]# cd html/
[initnginx root:/usr/share/nginx/html]# ls
index.html
[initnginx root:/usr/share/nginx/html]# cat index.html

[initnginx root:/usr/share/nginx/html]# 

发现index.html文件已经生成了,就是在初始化容器中创建的文件被挂载到nginx中来使用。

查看初始化容器的日志

[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# kubectl logs initnginx -c install
Connecting to www.baidu.com (103.235.46.39:443)
wget: note: TLS certificate validation not implemented
saving to '/work-dir/index.html'
index.html           100% |********************************|  2443  0:00:00 ETA
'/work-dir/index.html' saved
[root@nccztsjb-node-11 ~]# 

OK,通过日志发现是向/work-dir/目录中写了index.html文件。

以上就是初始化容器的基本的用法。

查看pod的事件也可以看到pod中容器运行的顺序

即先创建初始化容器,运行结束后,才是运行nginx这个应用容器。

初始化容器使用的说明

关于初始化容器的使用,有几点说明

  • 在pod中可以有一个或者多个初始化容器
  • 初始化容器执行成功后,应用的容器才能被执行
  • 初始化容器是仅运行一次的任务
