k8s-gen

Code generator for Jsonnet Kubernetes libraries.

This repository contains the generator code and relevant bits to generate the jsonnet libraries. It can generate libraries directly from OpenAPI spec v2 (Swagger) or by providing CustomResourceDefinitions.

The CI job is set up to generate and update the content of a corresponding Github repository for each library. The management of these repositories is done through Terraform.

Usage

Create or update a new lib

Create a folder in libs/:

mkdir libs/<name>

Setup config.jsonnet, this example is for rendering a lib from CRDs:

# libs/<name>/config.jsonnet
local config = import 'jsonnet/config.jsonnet';

config.new(
  name='<name>',
  specs=[
    {
      # output directory, usually the version of the upstream application/CRD
      output: '<version>',

      # crds Endpoints of the CRD manifests, should be omitted if there is an openapi spec
      # Only resources of kind CustomResourceDefintion are applied; the default policy is to just
      # pass in the CRDs here though.
      crds: ['https://url.to.crd.manifest/<version>/manifests/crd-all.gen.yaml'],

      # openapi spec v2 endpoint
      # No need to define this if `crds` is defined
      openapi: 'http://localhost:8001/openapi/v2',

      # prefix Regex that should match the reverse of the CRDs spec.group
      # for example `group: networking.istio.io`
      # would become ^io\\.istio\\.networking\\..*"
      prefix: '^<prefix>\\.<name>\\..*',

      # localName used in the docs for the example(s)
      localName: '<name>',
    },
  ]
)

Dry run the generate process:

$ make build        # Build the image
$ make libs/<name>  # Generate the library

Set up CI and Terraform code:

$ make configure

That is it, commit the changes to a branch and make a PR to get things rolling. The CI should take care of the rest.

Customizing

Because the generator only creates the most minimal yet functional code, more sophisticated utilities like constructors (deployment.new(name, replicas, containers), etc) are not created.

For that, there are two methods for extending:

`custom` patches

The custom/ directory contains a set of .libsonnet files, that are automatically merged with the generated result in main.libsonnet, so they become part of the exported API.

For example the patches in libs/k8s:


libs/k8s/
├── config.jsonnet                   # Config to generate the k8s jsonnet libraries
├── README.md.tmpl                   # Template for the index of the generated docs
└── custom
    └── core
        ├── apps.libsonnet           # Constructors for `core/v1`, ported from `ksonnet-gen` and `kausal.libsonnet`
        ├── autoscaling.libsonnet    # Extends `autoscaling/v2beta2`
        ├── batch.libsonnet          # Constructors for `batch/v1beta1`, `batch/v2alpha1`, ported from `kausal.libsonnet`
        ├── core.libsonnet           # Constructors for `apps/v1`, `apps/v1beta1`, ported from `ksonnet-gen` and `kausal.libsonnet`
        ├── list.libsonnet           # Adds `core.v1.List`
        ├── mapContainers.libsonnet  # Adds `mapContainers` functions for fields that support them
        ├── rbac.libsonnet           # Adds helper functions to rbac objects
        └── volumeMounts.libsonnet   # Adds helper functions to mount volumes

A reference for these must also be made in the config.jsonnet:

# libs/k8s/config.jsonnet
local config = import 'jsonnet/config.jsonnet';

config.new(
  name='k8s',
  specs=[
    {
        ...
        patchDir: 'custom/core',
    },
  ]
)

Extensions

Extensions serve a similar purpose as custom/ patches, but are not automatically applied. However, they are still part of the final artifact, but need to added by the user themselves.

Extensions can be applied as so:

(import "github.com/jsonnet-libs/k8s-libsonnet/1.21/main.libsonnet")
+ (import "github.com/jsonnet-libs/k8s-libsonnet/extensions/<name>.libsonnet")

A reference for these must also be made in the config.jsonnet:

# libs/k8s/config.jsonnet
local config = import 'jsonnet/config.jsonnet';

config.new(
  name='k8s',
  specs=[
    {
        ...
        extensionsDir: 'extensions/core',
    },
  ]
)
