Automatic merge from submit-queue Avoid double decoding all client responses Fixes #35982 The linked issue uncovered that we were always double decoding the response in restclient for get, list, update, create, and patch. That's fairly expensive, most especially for list. This PR refines the behavior of the rest client to avoid double decoding, and does so while minimizing the changes to rest client consumers. restclient must be able to deal with multiple types of servers. Alter the behavior of restclient.Result#Raw() to not process the body on error, but instead to return the generic error (which still matches the error checking cases in api/error like IsBadRequest). If the caller uses .Error(), .Into(), or .Get(), try decoding the body as a Status. For older servers, continue to default apiVersion "v1" when calling restclient.Result#Error(). This was only for 1.1 servers and the extensions group, which we have since fixed. This removes a double decode of very large objects (like LIST) - we were trying to DecodeInto status, but that ends up decoding the entire result and then throwing it away. This makes the decode behavior specific to the type of action the user wants. ```release-note The error handling behavior of `pkg/client/restclient.Result` has changed. Calls to `Result.Raw()` will no longer parse the body, although they will still return errors that react to `pkg/api/errors.Is*()` as in previous releases. Callers of `Get()` and `Into()` will continue to receive errors that are parsed from the body if the kind and apiVersion of the body match the `Status` object. This more closely aligns rest client as a generic RESTful client, while preserving the special Kube API extended error handling for the `Get` and `Into` methods (which most Kube clients use). ```
Cluster Federation
Kubernetes Cluster Federation enables users to federate multiple Kubernetes clusters. Please see the user guide and the admin guide for more details about setting up and using the Cluster Federation.
Building Kubernetes Cluster Federation
Please see the Kubernetes Development Guide
for initial setup. Once you have the development environment setup
as explained in that guide, you also need to install jq
Building cluster federation artifacts should be as simple as running:
make build
You can specify the docker registry to tag the image using the KUBE_REGISTRY environment variable. Please make sure that you use the same value in all the subsequent commands.
To push the built docker images to the registry, run:
make push
To initialize the deployment run:
(This pulls the installer images)
make init
To deploy the clusters and install the federation components, edit the
${KUBE_ROOT}/_output/federation/config.json
file to describe your
clusters and run:
make deploy
To turn down the federation components and tear down the clusters run:
make destroy
Ideas for improvement
-
Continue with
destroy
phase even in the face of errors.The bash script sets
set -e errexit
which causes the script to exit at the very first error. This should be the default mode for deploying components but not for destroying/cleanup.
