Gardener Extension for OS Configurations

Go Report Card

Project Gardener implements the automated management and operation of Kubernetes clusters as a service. Its main principle is to leverage Kubernetes concepts for all of its tasks.

Recently, most of the vendor specific logic has been developed in-tree. However, the project has grown to a size where it is very hard to extend, maintain, and test. With GEP-1 we have proposed how the architecture can be changed in a way to support external controllers that contain their very own vendor specifics. This way, we can keep Gardener core clean and independent.

The oscommon offers a generic controller that operates on the OperatingSystemConfig resource in the extensions.gardener.cloud/v1alpha1 API group. It manages those objects that are requesting for an specific operating system.

---
apiVersion: extensions.gardener.cloud/v1alpha1
kind: OperatingSystemConfig
metadata:
  name: pool-01-original
  namespace: default
spec:
  type: <os type>
  units:
    ...
  files:
    ...

Please find a concrete example in the example folder.

After reconciliation the resulting data will be stored in a secret within the same namespace (as the config itself might contain confidential data). The name of the secret will be written into the resource's .status field:

...
status:
  ...
  cloudConfig:
    secretRef:
      name: osc-result-pool-01-original
      namespace: default
  command: <machine configuration command>
  units:
  - docker-monitor.service
  - kubelet-monitor.service
  - kubelet.service

The secret has one data key cloud_config that stores the generation.

The generation of this operating system representation is executed by a Generator. A default implementation for the generator based on go templates is provided in pkg/template.

In addition, oscommon provides set of basic tests which can be used to test the operating system specific generator.

Please find more information regarding the extensibility concepts and a detailed proposal here.


How to use oscommon in a new operating system configuration controller

When implemening a controller for a specific operating system, it is necessary to provide:

  • A command line application for launching the controller
  • A template for translating the cloud-config to the format requried by the operating system.
  • Alternatively, a new generator can also be provided, in case the transformations required by the operating system requires more complex logic than provided by go templates.
  • A test that uses the test description provided in [pkg/generator/test]
  • A directory with test files
  • The helm Chart for operator registration and installation

Please refer to the os-suse-jeos controller for a concrete example.
