Latest Release: v4.7.3, 2021-08-19
The pgo-osb project is an implementation of the Open Service Broker API. This implementation uses the Crunchy PostgreSQL Operator as a means to provision services, in this case the service is a PostgreSQL database cluster.
pgo-osb allows users to also bind to a service instance which when invoked will return PostgreSQL credentials to a user they can use to connect to the PostgreSQL database instance.
Also, users can deprovision a PostgreSQL database cluster using the OSB API.
The pgo-osb broker was developed using the OSB Starter Pack and associated libraries.
See the following:
Starting with pgo-osb version 4.0.0, the release schedule and version number for pgo-osb will be aligned with the release schedule and version number for the the Crunchy PostgreSQL Operator. Therefore, to ensure compatibility between pgo-osb and the PostgreSQL Operator, please ensure the version number for pgo-osb matches the version number of the PostgreSQL Operator deployed in your environment. For instance, if you are using pgo-osb v4.7.3, please ensure the Crunchy PostgreSQL Operator v4.7.3 is also deployed in your environment.
golang 1.9 or above is required to build this project.
Running the pgo-osb service broker assumes you have successfully deployed the PostgreSQL Operator. See the PostgreSQL Operator documentation for documentation on deploying the PostgreSQL Operator:
https://access.crunchydata.com/documentation/postgres-operator/
Please note that if pgo-osb is deployed to a different namespace than the
PostgreSQL Operator, DNS must be utilized when specifying the URL for the
PostgreSQL Operator API server. This is done using environment variable
PGO_APISERVER_URL
in the pgo-osb deployment.yaml
file (located in
directory $OSB_ROOT/deploy
). For instance, if the PostgreSQL Operator is
deployed to namespace pgo
, the PGO_APISERVER_URL
environment variable would
be set in this file as follows:
- --PGO_APISERVER_URL
- "https://postgres-operator.pgo.svc.cluster.local:8443"
However, if pgo-osb is deployed to the same namespace as the PostgreSQL Operator, then the PostgreSQL Operator service name can simply be utilized:
- --PGO_APISERVER_URL
- "https://postgres-operator:8443"
Additionally, pgo-osb must also be configured with the certificates needed
to properly authenticate into and trust the PostgreSQL Operator API server. When
installing the PostgreSQL Operator API server these certificates are
automatically generated, and must be copied into directory $OSB_ROOT/deploy
prior to deploying pgo-osb. This allows the certificates to be stored in a
secret that can be utilized by pgo-osb when accessing the PostgreSQL
Operator API server. For instance, if the PostgreSQL Operator was installed
using the bash
installation method, the certificates can be copied as follows:
cp $PGOROOT/conf/postgres-operator/server.crt $PGOROOT/conf/postgres-operator/server.key $OSB_ROOT/deploy
Or if the PostgreSQL Operator was installed using Ansible, then the certificates can be copied from your home directory as follows:
cp "${HOME}"/.pgo/"${PGO_OPERATOR_NAMESPACE}"/output/server.crt $OSB_ROOT/deploy
cp "${HOME}"/.pgo/"${PGO_OPERATOR_NAMESPACE}"/output/server.pem $OSB_ROOT/deploy/server.key
This example also assumes you have created a Kube namespace called demo. Adjust
OSB_NAMESPACE to suit your specific namespace value. And lastly, the example
assumes you are using the PostgreSQL Operator default RBAC account called
username
with a password of password
. If this is not the case then you will
need to adjust the example service instance service-instance.yaml
.
The standalone and ha service plans require custom storage and container
resource configurations in the PostgreSQL Operator's pgo.yaml
definition.
Refer to the Operator documentation:
The Open Service Broker will request custom storage and container resources
corresponding to the size of plan, using the names osbsmall
, osbmedium
,
osblarge
. For example, the standalone_md
plan will use disk sizes defined by
the osbmedium
custom storage definition and the memory and CPU limits defined
by the osbmedium
container resource definition.

osbsmall:

To build the pgo-osb broker, place these additional environment variables
into your .bashrc
as they are used in the various scripts and deployment
templates:
export GOPATH=$HOME/odev
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$GOBIN:$PATH
export OSB_NAMESPACE=demo
export OSB_CMD=kubectl
export OSB_ROOT=$GOPATH/src/github.com/crunchydata/pgo-osb
export OSB_BASEOS=centos7
export OSB_VERSION=4.7.3
export OSB_IMAGE_TAG=$OSB_BASEOS-$OSB_VERSION
export OSB_IMAGE_PREFIX=crunchydata
Install the dep dependency tool:
mkdir $GOPATH/bin $GOPATH/src/github.com/crunchydata $GOPATH/pkg -p
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/golang/dep/master/install.sh | sh
Get the code:
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/crunchydata
git clone https://github.com/crunchydata/pgo-osb.git
cd pgo-osb
Install the service catalog into your Kubernetes cluster by following this link:
https://svc-cat.io/docs/install/
Instructions on that link are provided to also install the
very useful svcat
utility for inspecting and working
with the service catalog.
Deploy the pgo-osb broker:
make setup
make image
make deploy
Verify your deployment has been successful with:
kubectl get pod --selector=app=pgo-osb
which has output similar to:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
pgo-osb-69c76578b9-v7s9k 1/1 Running 0 16m
To use the pgo-osb broker, please follow the following instructions.
Note that if you want to specify a specific namespace for where your PostgreSQL
cluster is deployed to, you can use the PGO_CLUSTER_NAMESPACE
environmental
variable. Otherwise, pgo-osb will search across all namespaces to look up
where the cluster exists.
svcat marketplace

Note: Additional services installed in your environment may be listed as well.
cd $OSB_ROOT
make provision
kubectl get serviceinstance
make provision2
kubectl get serviceinstance
Please note the ServiceInstance
objects created when running the
make provision
and make provision2
commands above will create PostgreSQL
cluster's in the default namespace set for the PostgreSQL Operator according to
the PGO_NAMESPACE
environment variable set in your environment. If you would
like the clusters to be provisioned in another namespace, please set the proper
namespace using the PGO_NAMESPACE
parameter in files
$OSB_ROOT/manifests/service-instance.yaml
and
$OSB_ROOT/manifests/service-instance2.yaml
.
You should see a pod with that service instance name:
kubectl get pod --selector=name=testinstance
kubectl get pod --selector=name=testinstance2
make bind
kubectl get servicebinding
make bind2
kubectl get servicebinding
You can view the binding and the generated Postgres credentials using this command:
svcat describe binding testinstance-binding -n $OSB_NAMESPACE
which has output similar to:
Name: testinstance-binding
Namespace: demo
