enscope

Typically a configuration is comprised of a set of objects (e.g., a simple service, replication controller, and template). Within that configuration, objects may refer to each other by object reference (as with replication controller to template, as of v1beta3) and/or by label selector (as with service and replication controller to pods generated from the pod template).

If one wants to create multiple instances of that configuration, such as for dev and prod deployments (aka horizontal composition) or to embed in composite macro-services (aka hierarchical composition), the names must be uniquified and the label selectors must be scoped to just one instance of the configuration, by adding deployment-specific labels and label selector requirements (e.g., env=prod, app==coolapp).

Enscope is a standalone minimally schema-aware transformation pass for this purpose. It identifies all names, references, label sets, and label selectors that must be uniquified/scoped. An alternative would be to use a generic templating mechanism, such as Mustache, but the scoping mechanism would need to be reimplemented in every templating language, and it would also make configurations more complex.

Currently targets only v1beta3, which isn't yet fully implemented.

Usage

$ enscope specFilename configFilename

Scope schema

type EnscopeSpec struct {
	NameSuffix string            `json:"nameSuffix,omitempty"`
	Labels     map[string]string `json:"labels,omitempty"`
}

Example

The following name suffix and labels applied to the output from the contrib/srvexpand example:

nameSuffix: -coolapp-prod
labels:
  app: coolapp
  env: prod
