## 🔧 **Core Components Deep Dive**
### **1. DevOpsProject Controller** 🏗️
**What it does:** The **orchestrator-in-chief** that creates your entire DevOps ecosystem.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.on.create(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, kind=consts.DEVOPS_PROJECT_KIND)
def on_devops_proj_created(name: str, namespace: Optional[str], body: Body, logger: Logger, **kwargs):
# When you create a DevOpsProject CR, this triggers:
# 1. Validates your Git repo and container registry config
# 2. Creates ArgoSetting CR (for ArgoCD management)
# 3. Creates JenkinsSetting CR (for CI/CD pipelines)
# 4. Creates ContainerRegistry CR (for image management)
# 5. Creates GitCredentials CR (for authentication)
```
**Your Actual Flow:**
```
User creates DevOpsProject CR
Reconciler validates Git repo + container registry
Creates ArgoSetting CR (manages ArgoCD projects/apps)
Creates JenkinsSetting CR (manages CI/CD pipelines)
Creates ContainerRegistry CR (manages Docker images)
Creates GitCredentials CR (manages authentication)
Your DevOps ecosystem is ready! 🎉
```
### **2. ArgoSetting Controller** 🚀
**What it does:** Manages your **ArgoCD infrastructure** - projects, repositories, and applications.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
# When ArgoSetting CR is created:
for project in as_spec.projects:
# Creates ArgoCD Project
desired_resources.append(ManagedResource(
resource_type="project",
resource_id=project.name,
description=project.desc,
metadata={
"source_repos": [repo.url for repo in as_spec.repositories],
"destinations": [{"server": dest.server, "namespace": dest.namespace}]
}
))
for app in as_spec.applications:
# Creates ArgoCD Application
desired_resources.append(ManagedResource(
resource_type="application",
resource_id=app.name,
metadata={
"project": app.project,
"repo_url": app.source.repo_url,
"path": app.source.path,
"target_revision": app.source.revision
}
))
```
**Your Actual ArgoCD Management:**
```
ArgoSetting CR created
Reconciler connects to ArgoCD API (argo.mathmast.com)
Creates ArgoCD Project (defines permissions, repos, destinations)
Creates ArgoCD Repository (connects to your Git repo)
Creates ArgoCD Application (deploys your app)
ArgoCD starts syncing your application! 🔄
```
### **3. JenkinsSetting Controller** ⚙️
**What it does:** Manages your **Jenkins CI/CD pipelines** - creates folders, pipelines, and credentials.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.timer(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, kind=consts.JENKINS_SETTINGS_KIND, interval=300)
def poll_project_config(name: str, namespace: str, body: Body, logger: logging.Logger, **kwargs):
# Every 5 minutes, the reconciler:
# 1. Fetches your project's YAML config from Git
# 2. Generates Jenkins Pipeline DSL
# 3. Creates/updates Jenkins pipelines
# 4. Manages pipeline credentials
```
**Your Actual Jenkins Management:**
```
JenkinsSetting CR created
Reconciler clones your Git repo
Reads your project's YAML configuration
Generates Jenkins Pipeline DSL (Groovy script)
Creates Jenkins folder structure (project/environment)
Creates Jenkins pipeline with your DSL
Your CI/CD pipeline is ready! 🚀
```
### **4. DeploymentRecord Controller** 🎯
**What it does:** Orchestrates **actual deployments** - triggers Jenkins builds, monitors ArgoCD sync, manages TTL.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.on.create(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, plural=consts.DEPLOYMENT_RECORD_PLURAL)
async def create_deployment_record(spec: Dict[str, Any], name: str, namespace: str, uid: str, logger: Logger, **kwargs):
# When you trigger a deployment:
# 1. Validates deployment request
# 2. Triggers Jenkins build
# 3. Monitors build progress
# 4. Triggers ArgoCD sync
# 5. Monitors deployment status
# 6. Manages TTL (Time To Live)
```
**Your Actual Deployment Flow:**
```
User clicks "Deploy" button
DeploymentRecord CR created
Reconciler triggers Jenkins build
Monitors build phases (building, testing, packaging)
Triggers ArgoCD sync when build completes
Monitors ArgoCD sync status
Creates IngressResource for external access
Deployment is live! 🌐
```
### **5. IngressResource Controller** 🌐
**What it does:** Manages **external access** - DNS records, SSL certificates, and ingress rules.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
async def create_ingress_resource(self, body: Body, name: str, namespace: str, **kwargs):
# When IngressResource CR is created:
# 1. Creates DNS record via GoDaddy API
# 2. Requests SSL certificate via cert-manager
# 3. Creates Kubernetes Ingress
# 4. Updates deployment URL
# 5. Sends heartbeat with live URL
```
**Your Actual Ingress Management:**
```
IngressResource CR created
Reconciler calls GoDaddy API
Creates DNS record (app.mathmast.com → 4.155.160.32)
Requests SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt
Creates Kubernetes Ingress rule
Your app is accessible at https://app.mathmast.com! 🔒
```
---
## 📡 **Messaging & Event System**
### **RabbitMQ Integration** 🐰
Your reconciler uses **RabbitMQ** for asynchronous communication and event-driven architecture.
**Event Types:**
```python
class EventType(Enum):
DEVOPS_INITIALIZE = "DevOpsInitialize" # New project setup
DEVOPS_RECONCILE = "DevOpsReconcile" # Deployment trigger
DEVOPS_RECONCILE_HEARTBEAT = "DevOpsReconcileJobHeartbeat" # Progress updates
```
**Real Event Flow:**
```
User triggers deployment
DevOpsReconcileEvent sent to RabbitMQ
Reconciler picks up event
Creates DeploymentRecord CR
Sends heartbeat every 30 seconds
User sees real-time progress! 📊
```
### **Heartbeat System** 💓
**What it does:** Provides **real-time deployment status** to your users.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
@dataclass
class DevOpsReconcileJobHeartbeatEvent:
operation: str = "heartbeat"
id: str = "" # deployment ID
status: str = "running" # running/success/failed/terminated
phase: str = "initializing" # current deployment phase
phase_message: str = "" # human-readable message
url: Optional[str] = None # live URL when deployment completes
```
**Your Actual Heartbeat Flow:**
```
Deployment starts
Heartbeat every 30 seconds:
- Phase: "initializing" → "building" → "deploying" → "verifying"
- Status: "running" → "success"
- URL: None → "https://app.mathmast.com"
User sees live progress in UI! 📈
```
---
## 🕒 **TTL (Time To Live) Management**
### **Automatic Cleanup** 🧹
Your reconciler includes **sophisticated TTL management** for temporary deployments.
**Real Code Example:**
```python
@dataclass
class TTLMonitoringState:
deployment_record_name: str
enabled: bool
ttl_seconds: int # Default: 3 hours (10800 seconds)
start_time: datetime
expiration_time: datetime
phase: TTLMonitoringPhase # monitoring/cleanup/completed
```
**Your Actual TTL Flow:**
```
Deployment completes
TTL monitoring starts (3 hours by default)
Every minute: Check if TTL expired
When expired: Trigger cleanup
Delete ArgoCD applications
Delete Kubernetes resources
Delete DNS records
Delete SSL certificates
Environment cleaned up! 🧹
```
---
## 🔗 **Relationship with Your DevOps Infrastructure**
### **How the Reconciler Extends Kubernetes** 🔧
Your reconciler doesn't just manage Kubernetes resources - it **extends Kubernetes** with custom DevOps capabilities:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
