description
Install HyperShift Operator with private AWS and external-dns settings.
# Install HyperShift Operator (HO) Use this skill to install HyperShift Operator with a custom image, external-dns, and private AWS settings. ## When to Use This Skill Use when: - You need to install HO with a custom image - You want external-dns configured for AWS - You are using private AWS settings for the management cluster - Changes to the CRDs generated APIs don't need an image rebuild, just a make api && make build ## Prerequisites Source the environment file before using this skill: ```bash source dev/claude-env.sh ``` ## Environment Configuration Environment variables from `dev/claude-env.sh`: | Variable | Description | |----------|-------------| | `HO_IMAGE_REPO` | Container registry for HO images | | `AWS_CREDENTIALS` | Path to AWS credentials file | | `EXTERNAL_DNS_DOMAIN` | Domain filter for external-dns | | `OIDC_BUCKET` | S3 bucket for OIDC | | `AWS_REGION` | AWS region | | `MGMT_KUBECONFIG` | Path to management cluster kubeconfig | ## Parameters - `HO_IMAGE` should point to the image you want to install, for example `$HO_IMAGE_REPO:autonode`. ## Command Run make build first if needed ```bash KUBECONFIG=$MGMT_KUBECONFIG \ ./bin/hypershift install \ --hypershift-image $HO_IMAGE_REPO:YOUR_TAG \ --external-dns-provider=aws \ --external-dns-credentials $AWS_CREDENTIALS \ --external-dns-domain-filter=$EXTERNAL_DNS_DOMAIN \ --oidc-storage-provider-s3-bucket-name $OIDC_BUCKET \ --oidc-storage-provider-s3-credentials $AWS_CREDENTIALS \ --oidc-storage-provider-s3-region $AWS_REGION \ --private-platform=AWS \ --aws-private-creds $AWS_CREDENTIALS \ --enable-conversion-webhook=false \ --aws-private-region=$AWS_REGION ``` ## Notes - Build the CLI first: `make hypershift` (this produces `./bin/hypershift`). - Ensure the AWS credentials file exists and is readable. - The `MGMT_KUBECONFIG` must point to your management cluster.
