Rancher Upgrade Tool

The Rancher Upgrade Tool simplifies generating an upgrade plan for Rancher and Kubernetes versions. It uses compatibility rules stored in a JSON file to ensure smooth and efficient upgrades. Visit Rancher Tips for more insights.

Dependencies

• Go Fiber: Web framework for building APIs in Go
• Fiber Prometheus: Middleware for Prometheus metrics in Fiber
• HashiCorp Go Version: Library for version parsing and comparison

File Structure

• main.go: Contains the main logic for the upgrade planner
• data/upgrade-paths.json: JSON file containing the upgrade paths and compatibility rules

API Endpoints

• /api/plan-upgrade/:platform/:rancher/:k8s: Generates the upgrade plan for the provided Rancher and Kubernetes versions on a specific platform
• /healthz: Health check endpoint
• /metrics: Prometheus metrics endpoint

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/SupportTools/rancher-upgrade-tool.git
   cd rancher-upgrade-tool

2. Add the upgrade-paths.json file in the data/ directory with the upgrade paths and rules.
3. Install dependencies using Go modules:

   go mod tidy

4. Run the application:

   go run main.go

Usage

• Make a GET request to /api/plan-upgrade/:platform/:rancher/:k8s to get the upgrade plan for the specified platform, Rancher version, and Kubernetes version.
• Access Prometheus metrics data at /metrics.

Metrics

The application exposes custom metrics for monitoring and analysis:

• requests_in_last_60_seconds: Counts incoming requests in the last 60 seconds
• versions_submitted_total: Tracks the total number of Rancher and Kubernetes versions submitted
• request_duration_seconds: Measures the duration of each request
• active_requests: Tracks the number of active requests being processed
