Collection of small Go libraries used by NAIS operators.

• Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions
• Name generation functions
• ...more to come

Install dependency:

go get github.com/nais/liberator

To update to the latest version, run:

go get -u github.com/nais/liberator@HEAD

When developing applications using new Liberator features, you can point the application to link against your local Liberator by running the following command in the application repository:

go mod edit -replace github.com/nais/liberator=../liberator

This will add a line in your go.mod file. Make sure this change isn't checked in when committing, otherwise the code won't build in the CI tool. To revert your changes, run:

go mod edit -dropreplace github.com/nais/liberator
go get -u github.com/nais/liberator@HEAD

You can define fields as immutable using the field tag nais:"immutable":

type MySpec struct {
	MutableString string `json:"mutableString"`
	ImmutableString string `json:"immutableString" nais:"immutable"`
}

You can also use this on slices. When defined on a field with type slice, the entire slice is immutable and cannot be changed. If the slice contains structs, individual elements of the slice will be tested against each other. This requires another field flag, nais:"key", to identify which of the elements in the slice to match against each other. You can specify more than one in a "one of" matching process.

type Apps struct {
	Name string `json:"name" nais:"immutable,key"`
	Awesomeness int `json:"awesomeness" nais:"immutable"`
}

type AppList struct {
	Items []Apps `json:"name"`
}

Documenting immutable fields must be done using the comment // +nais:doc:Immutable=true:

type Apps struct {
	// +nais:doc:Immutable=true
	Name string `json:"name" nais:"immutable,key"`
	// +nais:doc:Immutable=true
	Awesomeness int `json:"awesomeness" nais:"immutable"`
}

type AppList struct {
	Items []Apps `json:"name"`
}

The controller-tools dependency in go.mod locks the versions of upstream libraries api, apiextensions, and apimachinery, effectively determining which Kubernetes version is compatible.

Check for compatibility here: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-tools/commits/master/go.mod

Make sure controller-gen is of a compatible version by doing go get sigs.k8s.io/controller-tools@VERSION

Run make generate to generate deep copy functions and CRD files.
