Getting Started

Issues

  • Open or search for issues.
  • If a related issue doesn't exist, you can open a new issue using a relevant issue form.

Pull Requests

All commits must be signed off with the footer:

Signed-off-by: Firstname Lastname <email@email.com>

Once you set your user.name and user.email in your git config, you can sign your commit automatically with git commit -s. When you think the code is ready for review, create a pull request and link the issue associated with it.

Owners of the repository will watch out for and review new PRs.

If comments have been given in a review, they have to be addressed before merging.

After addressing review comments, don’t forget to add a comment in the PR afterward, so everyone gets notified by Github and knows to re-review.

Development

Detailed instructions regarding the DevWorkspace Operator development are provided in this section.

Prerequisites

To build, test and debug the DevWorkspace Operator the following development tools are required:

Note: kustomize v4.0.5 is required for most tasks. It is downloaded automatically to the .kustomize folder in this repo when required. This downloaded version is used regardless of whether or not kustomize is already installed on the system.

Makefile

The repository contains a Makefile; building and deploying can be configured via the environment variables:

variable purpose default value
DWO_IMG Image used for controller quay.io/devfile/devworkspace-controller:next
DEFAULT_DWO_IMG Image used for controller when generating default deployment templates. Can be used to override the controller image in the OLM bundle quay.io/devfile/devworkspace-controller:next
NAMESPACE Namespace to use for deploying controller devworkspace-controller
ROUTING_SUFFIX Cluster routing suffix (e.g. $(minikube ip).nip.io, apps-crc.testing). Required for Kubernetes 192.168.99.100.nip.io
PULL_POLICY Image pull policy for controller Always
DEVWORKSPACE_API_VERSION Branch or tag of the github.com/devfile/api to depend on v1alpha1

Some of the rules supported by the Makefile:

rule purpose
docker build and push docker image
install install controller to cluster
restart restart cluster controller deployment
install_cert_manager installs the cert-manager to the cluster (only required for Kubernetes)
uninstall delete controller namespace devworkspace-controller and remove CRDs from cluster
help print all rules and variables

To see all rules supported by the makefile, run make help

DevWorkspace Operator first time development setup

  1. Fork devfile/devworkspce-operator and clone your fork locally
  2. Export the DWO_IMG environment variable. For example: 
    export DWO_IMG=quay.io/mloriedo/devworkspace-controller:dev
    ⚠️ You need write privileges on this container registry repository. The DevWorkspace controller image will be pushed there during build.
  3. If your changes include some update to the Devfile or DevWorkspace schema set some environment variables and run go mod to point to your fork instead of devfile/api: 
    export DEVFILE_API_REPO=github.com/l0rd/api   # <== your devfile/api fork
export DEVFILE_API_BRANCH=my-branch-name      # <== the branch of your fork
export DEVWORKSPACE_API_VERSION=$(git ls-remote https://${DEVFILE_API_REPO} | grep refs/heads/${DEVFILE_API_BRANCH} | cut -f 1)
go mod edit -replace github.com/devfile/api/v2=${DEVFILE_API_REPO}/v2@${DEVWORKSPACE_API_VERSION} && \
go mod download && \
go mod tidy
  4. Build the controller go code, build the container image and publish it to the container registry: 
    make docker
  5. Install cert-manager (can be skipped on OpenShift): 
    make install_cert_manager && \
kubectl wait --for=condition=Available -n cert-manager deployment/cert-manager
  6. Finally deploys the CRDs and the controller to the current cluster: 
    make install  # <== this command copies the CRDs definition
              #     creates the namespace for the controller in the cluster
              #     downloads and runs kustomize to build the manifests
              #     deploys all the manifests (CRDs and controller)

Test run controller

  1. Take a look samples devworkspace configuration in ./samples folder.
  2. Apply any of them by executing kubectl apply -f ./samples/code-latest.yaml -n <namespace>
  3. As soon as devworkspace is started you're able to get IDE url by executing kubectl get devworkspace -n <namespace>

Run controller locally

export NAMESPACE="devworkspace-controller"
make install
# Wait for webhook server to start
kubectl rollout status deployment devworkspace-controller-manager -n $NAMESPACE --timeout 90s
kubectl rollout status deployment devworkspace-webhook-server -n $NAMESPACE --timeout 90s
# Scale on-cluster deployment to zero to avoid conflict with locally-running instance
oc patch deployment/devworkspace-controller-manager --patch "{\"spec\":{\"replicas\":0}}" -n $NAMESPACE
make run

Note: The operator requires internet access from containers to work. By default, crc setup may not provision this, so it's necessary to configure DNS for Docker:

# /etc/docker/daemon.json
{
  "dns": ["192.168.0.1"]
}

By default, the controller will expose workspace servers without any authentication; this is not advisable for public clusters, as any user could access the created workspace via URL.

Run controller locally and debug

Debugging the controller depends on delve being installed (go install github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest). Note that $GOPATH/bin or $GOBIN must be added to $PATH in order for make debug to run correctly.

make install
# Wait for webhook server to start
kubectl rollout status deployment devworkspace-controller-manager -n $NAMESPACE --timeout 90s
kubectl rollout status deployment devworkspace-webhook-server -n $NAMESPACE --timeout 90s
oc patch deployment/devworkspace-controller-manager --patch "{\"spec\":{\"replicas\":0}}"
# Scale on-cluster deployment to zero to avoid conflict with locally-running instance
make debug

Run webhook server locally and debug

Debugging the webhook server depends on telepresence being installed (https://www.telepresence.io/docs/latest/install/). Teleprescence works by redirecting traffic going from the webhook-server in the cluster to the local webhook-server you will be running on your computer.

make debug-webhook-server

when you are done debugging you have to manually uninstall the telepresence agent

make disconnect-debug-webhook-server

Updating devfile API

devfile API is the Kube-native API for cloud development workspaces specification and the core dependency of the devworkspace-operator that should be regularly updated to the latest version. In order to do the update:

  1. update DEVWORKSPACE_API_VERSION variable in the Makefile and build/scripts/generate_deployment.sh. The variable should correspond to the commit SHA from the devfile API repository
  2. run the following scripts and the open pull request
make update_devworkspace_api update_devworkspace_crds # first commit
make generate_all # second commit

Example of the devfile API update PR

Remove controller from your K8s/OS Cluster

To uninstall the controller and associated CRDs, use the Makefile uninstall rule:

make uninstall

This will delete all custom resource definitions created for the controller, as well as the devworkspace-controller namespace.

Build a custom OLM bundle

In order to build a custom bundle, the following environment variables should be set:

variable purpose default value
DWO_BUNDLE_IMG Image used for Operator bundle image quay.io/devfile/devworkspace-operator-bundle:next
DWO_INDEX_IMG Image used for Operator index image quay.io/devfile/devworkspace-operator-index:next
DEFAULT_DWO_IMG Image used for controller when generating defaults quay.io/devfile/devworkspace-controller:next

To build the index image and register its catalogsource to the cluster, run

make generate_olm_bundle_yaml build_bundle_and_index register_catalogsource

Note that setting DEFAULT_DWO_IMG while generating sources will result in local changes to the repo which should be git restored before committing. This can also be done by unsetting the DEFAULT_DWO_IMG env var and re-running make generate_olm_bundle_yaml
