SkyWalking Kubernetes Event Exporter is able to watch, filter, and send Kubernetes events
into [Apache SkyWalking](https://github.com/apache/skywalking) backend, afterwards, SkyWalking associates the events
with the system metrics and thus gives you an overview about how the metrics are effected by the events.

## Configurations

Configurations are in YAML format, or config map if running inside Kubernetes,
otherwise, [the default configuration file](assets/default-config.yaml) will be used if there is neither `-c` option
specified in the command line interface nor config map created in Kubernetes.

All available configuration items and their documentations can be found
in [the default configuration file](assets/default-config.yaml).

## Exporters

The available exporters are listed [here](docs/exporters.md).

## Deployments

Go to [the /deployments/release](deployments/release) directory, modify according to your needs, and
run `kustomize build | kubectl apply -f -`.

You can also simply run `skywalking-kubernetes-event-exporter start` in command line interface to run this exporter from
outside of Kubernetes.

## Build and Test

In order to build and test the exporter before an Apache official release, you need set a Docker registry where you can
push the images, do this by `export HUB=<your-docker-hub-registry>`, and then run `make -C build/package/docker push`
to build and push the Docker images, finally, run `make -C deployments/dev deploy` to deploy the exporter.

```shell
export HUB=<your-docker-hub-registry>
make -C build/package/docker push
make -C deployments/dev deploy
```
