How to set up and validate locally

  1. Enable the k8s_dashboard feature flag
      Feature.enable(:k8s_dashboard)
  1. Enable KAS on your GDK (steps 1-2 from the guide).

  2. Visit the Project -> Infrastructure -> Kubernetes clusters page and create an agent following the instruction from the modal.

    • Select the "Connect a cluster" button
    • The modal should pop up
    • In the modal select "Select an agent or enter a name to create new"
    • You probably won't have any configured agents to show up in the list, create a new one by typing the name of your choice
    • The button should appear at the bottom of the list saying "Create agent: <your-agent-name>"
    • Select the button and click "Register" in the next view.
    • Save the token to use it in the next point.
  3. Add the following configuration inside your project in .gitlab/agents/<your-agent-name>/config.yaml for the user_access agent:

    gitops:
      manifest_projects:
      - id: <your-group>/<your-project>
    user_access:
      access_as: 
        agent: {}
      projects:
      - id: <your-group>/<your-project-to-share-agent-with>
  4. Note that the shared agents should be connected to the cluster in order to appear in the list. Please follow points 3-8 from the guide and then the Deploy the GitLab Agent (agentk) with k3d section to create a local cluster and connect your agent with the cluster.

  5. Navigate to https://gdk.test:3443/-/kubernetes/<your-agent-id>/jobs and https://gdk.test:3443/-/kubernetes/<your-agent-id>/cronjobs

  6. Verify the pages, data, and the drawer appearing on the table row click.
