Operator Guidelines

This project aims to follow the Kubernetes Operator pattern

It uses Controllers which provides a reconcile function responsible for synchronizing resources until the desired state is reached on the cluster

Test It Out

1. Install the CRDs into the cluster:

make install

2. Run your controller (this will run in the foreground, so switch to a new terminal if you want to leave it running):

make run

NOTE: You can also run this in one step by running: make install run

Modifying the *_types.go

After modifying the *_types.go file always run the following command to update the generated code for that resource type:

make generate

Modifying the API definitions

If you are editing the API definitions, generate the manifests such as CRs or CRDs using:

make manifests

NOTE: Run make --help for more information on all potential make targets
