Kubernetes configuration & Docker images to manage an Ark : Survival Evolved server.
The most common way to run Ark is using a single statefull set with a service attached.
This statefullset request at least 1 cpu core & 4 Gb ram free for running, you can customize this in the statefulset yaml files if needed.
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/namespace.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/service.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/statefulset.yaml
This configuration include a pvc of 50GB and a public LoadBalancer with udp ports exposed.
Customize yaml files from gke/ directory or apply it directly from github :
$ kubectl apply -f gke/namespace.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f gke/pvc.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f gke/service.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f gke/stafulset.yaml
or
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/gke/namespace.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/gke/pvc.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/gke/service.yaml
$ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyrilbkr/k8s-ark/master/gke/statefulset.yaml
Alternative configurations are available in the k8s-alternative-config directory.

Disk space depend of the map, but usually you need between 15 GB and 30 GB to be safe. This do not include mods if you hack this configuration.
