You can use this stack to spin up a private network as well as resource classes that will let you provision resources in that network.

Requirements:

• Crossplane should be installed.
• GCP Provider should be installed and its version should be at least 0.7.0

If you have crossplane-cli installed, you can use the following command to install:

# Do not forget to change <version> with the correct version.
kubectl crossplane package install --cluster -n crossplane-system 'crossplane/stack-gcp-sample:<version>' gcp-sample

If you don't have crossplane-cli installed, you need to create the following YAML to install:

apiVersion: packages.crossplane.io/v1alpha1
kind: ClusterPackageInstall
metadata:
  name: "gcp-sample"
  namespace: crossplane-system
spec:
  package: "crossplane/stack-gcp-sample:<version>"

You can create the following YAML to trigger creation of

• Network
• Subnetwork
• GlobalAddress
• Connection
• Provider that points to credentials secret reference you supply

and the following resource classes with minimal hardware requirements that will let you create instances that are connected to that network.

• GKEClusterClass
• CloudSQLInstanceClass
• CloudMemorystoreInstanceClass

apiVersion: gcp.stacks.crossplane.io/v1alpha1
kind: GCPSample
metadata:
  name: test
spec:
  region: us-west2
  projectID: crossplane-playground
  credentialsSecretRef:
    name: gcp-account-creds
    namespace: crossplane-system
    key: credentials

In Crossplane, the resource classes that are annotated with resourceclass.crossplane.io/is-default-class: "true" are used as default if the claim doesn't specify a resource class selector. The resource classes you create via the GCPSample instance above will deploy all of its resource classes as default. If you'd like those defaulting annotations to be removed, you need to add the following to GCPSample instance above:

templatestacks.crossplane.io/remove-defaulting-annotations: true

Run make

Run make and then run the following command to copy the image into your minikube node's image registry:

# Do not forget to specify <version>
docker save "crossplane/stack-gcp-sample:<version>" | (eval "$(minikube docker-env --shell bash)" && docker load)

After running this, you can use the installation command and the image loaded into minikube node will be picked up.
