Description

ProblemStatement: As a DevOps engineer, I want a k8s controller that accepts values from various sources and provides a final set of merged values that can in turn be used to arrive at a desired state of a Pod.

For example:

  • PodConfig A provides taints & tolerations for Pod
  • PodConfig B provides resource limits (memory & cpu) for Pod
  • PodConfig C provides environment variables for containers of the Pod
  • PodConfigResult F should merge all the above & present a final state that is a 3 way merge of all the above based on priority.

Now there can be custom controllers that make use of resource F to build the desired Pod state & subsequently apply this Pod state against the kubernetes cluster.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's existing Kubernetes controller and metacontroller patterns, then compare them with the proposed PodConfig and PodConfigResult resources. Before implementation, define the resource schemas, priority and three-way merge semantics, and the observable completion criteria for a controller consuming the merged result.
