Creating a project
A project is a logical resource organization unit that groups together several Kubernetes namespaces. With a project, you can manage access and quotas at the team or application level.
Getting started
Make sure you have the cluster administrator permissions. Only cluster administrators can create projects.
-
In the left-hand menu, select Projects.
-
In the top-right corner, click + Create.
-
Under Main parameters, specify the following:
- Name: Project name. It must be unique within the cluster. This is a required field.
- displayName: Project name displayed in the UI. This is an optional field.
- Description: Brief description of the purpose of the project. This is an optional field.
-
Under Quotas, you can optionally set quotas for the project's resources:
- Select the resource type from the Resource drop-down list, e.g.,
limits.cpu,limits.memory,requests.cpu,requests.memory. - Set the value in the Value field.
- To add another quota, click Add.
- To delete a quota's row, click the recycle bin icon at the end of the row.
- Select the resource type from the Resource drop-down list, e.g.,
-
Click Create.
Use the Project resource to create a project:
-
Create a manifest file, e.g.,
project.yaml:apiVersion: stackland.yandex.cloud/v1alpha1 kind: Project metadata: name: team-alpha spec: displayName: "Team Alpha Project" description: "Engineering team for Alpha product line" quotas: requests.cpu: "10" requests.memory: "32Gi" limits.cpu: "20" limits.memory: "64Gi" requests.storage: "500Gi"Where:
metadata.name: Project name. It must be unique within the cluster. This is a required field.spec.displayName: Displayed project name. This is an optional field.spec.description: Project description. This is an optional field.spec.quotas: Quotas for the project's resources. This is an optional field. For more information, see Setting project quotas.
-
Apply the manifest:
kubectl apply -f project.yaml
After you create a project, Stackland will automatically create a service namespace named project-<project_name>. It will contain the project management resources.
