Postgres-operator: Instructions on how to run on GKE

[hjacobs]

It would be awesome to have a complete tutorial on how to run the PostgreSQL Operator on Google's Container Engine (GKE).

I would propose having a Markdown tutorial like External DNS provides for GKE: https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/external-dns/blob/master/docs/tutorials/gke.md

I have tested it and the only extra step required was adding my account as a cluster admin to the kubernetes cluster. Otherwise, I would get permission errors during service account creation.

This does the trick:

kubectl create clusterrolebinding me-as-admin --clusterrole=cluster-admin [email protected]

@aamederen do you want to contribute a tutorial for GKE incl. cluster creation and backup to object storage?

[aamederen]

@hjacobs no promises but I can type down the steps when I go through it once again.

Recently, I came across this nice guide to run the operator on GKE. No too different from our docs, I think. Closing this issue for now.
