NATS datastore

[rmarku]

There is no info on how to use NATS datastore with k3s in https://docs.k3s.io/datastore

It would be great if the nats team would contribute some docs. They contributed the support to kine, and that has been pulled into k3s, but we don't have any good guidance on how exactly they recommend using it.

Absolutely. Assigning myself. Should have something this week. In the meantime, a basic setup would look like this:

k3s server --datastore-endpoint=nats://localhost:4222

The current set of endpoint parameters are listed here: https://github.com/k3s-io/kine/blob/master/examples/nats.md. Do note that the current release of k3s does not have the embedded NATS support yet (requires a build tag).
