Implements the Docker Swarm API surface backed by Kubernetes, allowing
existing Swarm toolchains (Docker CLI, Portainer) to transparently use
a Kubernetes cluster as a Swarm backend.
Endpoints implemented:
- GET/POST /swarm, /swarm/init, /swarm/leave
- GET/POST /nodes, /nodes/{id}, /nodes/{id}/update
- POST /services/create, GET /services, GET/POST/DELETE /services/{id}
- GET /services/{id}/logs (multiplexed stream with swarm details context)
- GET /tasks, GET /tasks/{id}
- POST/GET/DELETE /secrets, /configs
- GET /stacks, DELETE /stacks/{name}
- GET/POST/DELETE /networks (with label filtering)
Tested and confirmed working:
- docker service create/ls/scale/update/rm with progress convergence
- docker service logs and --follow with context cancellation
- docker stack deploy/ls/ps/rm alongside standalone services
- docker secret and docker config CRUD
- Portainer Swarm cluster view, networks, services, stacks
