State Management

Sloth Kubernetes uses Pulumi state as a database, storing complete deployment information including configuration, metadata, and history. This enables powerful features like configuration recovery, audit trails, and rollback.

What's Stored in State

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                     PULUMI STATE                                │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│  configJson        │ Full cluster configuration (sanitized)    │
│  lispManifest      │ Original Lisp configuration file          │
│  deploymentMeta    │ Deployment metadata with versioning       │
│  kubeConfig        │ Kubernetes access configuration           │
│  nodes             │ Detailed node information                  │
│  salt_master       │ Salt API credentials and status           │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Export Configuration from State

# Export as Lisp (recover lost config files!)
sloth-kubernetes export-config production --format lisp

# Export as JSON
sloth-kubernetes export-config production --format json

# Export deployment metadata
sloth-kubernetes export-config production --format meta

# Save to file
sloth-kubernetes export-config production --format lisp --output recovered.lisp

Backend Options

Local Backend (Development)

# State stored in ~/.pulumi (default)
sloth-kubernetes deploy --config cluster.lisp

S3 Backend (Production)

export PULUMI_BACKEND_URL="s3://my-bucket?region=us-east-1"
export PULUMI_CONFIG_PASSPHRASE="your-passphrase"
sloth-kubernetes deploy --config cluster.lisp

Persistent Configuration

mkdir -p ~/.sloth-kubernetes
cat > ~/.sloth-kubernetes/config << 'EOF'
PULUMI_BACKEND_URL=s3://my-bucket?region=us-east-1
PULUMI_CONFIG_PASSPHRASE=my-passphrase
EOF

Versioning System

The versioning system (pkg/versioning) provides schema versioning, migrations, and change tracking for cluster configurations.

DeploymentMetadata Structure

Every deployment stores comprehensive metadata:

{
  "createdAt": "2026-01-05T11:42:41Z",
  "updatedAt": "2026-01-05T11:42:41Z",
  "lastDeployedAt": "2026-01-05T11:42:41Z",
  "deploymentId": "deploy-1-2026-01-05",
  "deploymentCount": 1,

  "configVersion": {
    "schema_version": "2.0",
    "config_hash": "02c6ff2ebc979d1026e3cbb66627afcf552202f9caa6aea71b5fa2cfa1d0e2f0",
    "created_at": "2026-01-05T11:42:41.69762Z",

  },
  "schemaVersion": "2.0",
  "configChecksum": "fcf6d2664734ffeb623fade4b67a0846ff0cbfa32bcf50ce739513113c790cc1",

  "currentNodeCount": 3,
  "previousNodeCount": 0,
  "lastScaleOperation": "initial",

  "nodePoolsAdded": ["masters", "workers"],
  "nodePoolsRemoved": [],
  "nodePoolsScaled": [],

  "changeLog": [
    {
      "timestamp": "2026-01-05T11:42:41Z",
      "changeType": "cluster_created",
      "resourceId": "my-cluster",
      "description": "Initial cluster deployment with 3 nodes",
      "actor": "sloth-kubernetes"
    },
    {
      "timestamp": "2026-01-05T11:42:41Z",
      "changeType": "pool_added",
      "resourceId": "masters",
      "description": "Initial node pool 'masters' created",
      "actor": "sloth-kubernetes"
    }
  ],

  "previousDeployments": [],

  "parentStateId": "",

  "slothVersion": "1.0.0",
  "pulumiVersion": "3.x"
}

Schema Versioning

The system tracks schema versions and supports migrations:

// Current schema version
const CurrentSchema = "2.0"

// Schema versions
SchemaV1 = "1.0"  // Original schema
SchemaV2 = "2.0"  // Added manifest_tracking, versioning fields

ConfigVersion Structure

type ConfigVersion struct {
    SchemaVersion SchemaVersion     // Schema version (e.g., "2.0")
    ConfigHash    string            // SHA256 hash of configuration
    ParentHash    string            // Hash of previous version
    CreatedAt     time.Time         // When version was created
    UpdatedAt     time.Time         // Last update time
    Migrations    []string          // Applied migrations
    Metadata      map[string]string // Additional metadata
}

Change Log Entry Types

Change Type	Description
cluster_created	Initial cluster deployment
scale_up	Node count increased
scale_down	Node count decreased
config_updated	Configuration changed
pool_added	New node pool created
pool_removed	Node pool deleted
pool_scaled	Node pool count changed

// Register manifest
manifest, err := registry.Register(
    "nginx-deployment",
    manifests.ManifestTypeRaw,
    `apiVersion: apps/v1

  replicas: 3`,
    map[string]string{"env": "production"},
)

// Get manifest
m, exists := registry.Get("nginx-deployment")

// List by type
argoApps := registry.ListByType(manifests.ManifestTypeArgoCD)

// List by status

    Timestamp     time.Time                 // When snapshot was taken
    Status        string                    // active, archived, rolled_back
    ConfigHash    string                    // Configuration hash
    ResourceCount int                       // Number of resources

    Resources     map[string]*ResourceState // Resource states
    Metadata      map[string]string         // Additional metadata
    ParentID      string                    // Previous snapshot ID
}

State Manager Operations

// Create manager
manager := state.NewInMemoryManager(100) // Max 100 snapshots

// Save snapshot
snapshot := &state.StateSnapshot{
    DeploymentID:  "deploy-1",
    Status:        "active",
    ConfigHash:    "abc123",
    ResourceCount: 10,
    NodeCount:     3,
}
manager.SaveSnapshot(snapshot)

// Get snapshots

filter := &state.SnapshotFilter{
    Status:       "active",
    DeploymentID: "deploy-1",
    Limit:        10,
}
snapshots := manager.ListSnapshots(filter)

Package Reference

pkg/versioning

Configuration versioning with schema migrations.

import "github.com/chalkan3/sloth-kubernetes/pkg/versioning"

vm := versioning.NewVersionManager()
version, _ := vm.CreateVersion(config, parentHash)
migrated, _, _ := vm.Migrate(config, versioning.SchemaV1, versioning.SchemaV2)

pkg/manifests

Kubernetes manifest registry with versioning.

import "github.com/chalkan3/sloth-kubernetes/pkg/manifests"

registry := manifests.NewRegistry(50)
manifest, _ := registry.Register("name", manifests.ManifestTypeRaw, content, nil)

internal/state

State snapshot management with rollback support.

import "github.com/chalkan3/sloth-kubernetes/internal/state"

manager := state.NewInMemoryManager(100)
manager.SaveSnapshot(snapshot)
diff, _ := manager.DiffSnapshots(oldID, newID)

internal/audit

Comprehensive audit logging.

import "github.com/chalkan3/sloth-kubernetes/internal/audit"

logger := audit.NewInMemoryLogger(10000)
logger.LogDeployment(resourceID, actor, description, action, success, metadata)
