* ensure that minReplicas <= desiredReplicas <= maxReplicas no matter what
* before this change, if the number of runners was much larger than the max number, the applied scale down factor might still result in a desired value > maxReplicas
* if for resource constraints in the cluster, runners would be permanently restarted, the number of runners could go up more than the reverse scale down factor until the next reconciliation round, resulting in a situation where the number of runners climbs up even though it should actually go down
* by checking whether the desiredReplicas is always <= maxReplicas, infinite scaling up loops can be prevented
Enhances #57 to add support for organizational runners.
As GitHub Actions does not have an appropriate API for this, this is the spec you need:
```
apiVersion: actions.summerwind.dev/v1alpha1
kind: RunnerDeployment
metadata:
name: myrunners
spec:
minReplicas: 1
maxReplicas: 3
autoscaling:
metrics:
- type: TotalNumberOfQueuedAndProgressingWorkflowRuns
repositories:
# Assumes that you have `github.com/myorg/myrepo1` repo
- myrepo1
- myrepo2
template:
spec:
organization: myorg
```
It works by collecting "in_progress" and "queued" workflow runs for the repositories `myrepo1` and `myrepo2` to autoscale the number of replicas, assuming you have this organizational runner deployment only for those two repositories.
For example, if `myrepo1` had 1 `in_progress` and 2 `queued` workflow runs, and `myrepo2` had 4 `in_progress` and 8 `queued` workflow runs at the time of running the reconcilation loop on the runner deployment, it will scale replicas to 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 = 15.
Perhaps we might be better add a kind of "ratio" setting so that you can configure the controller to create e.g. 2x runners than demanded. But that's another story.
Ref #10
* feat: Repository-wide RunnerDeployment Autoscaling
This adds `maxReplicas` and `minReplicas` to the RunnerDeploymentSpec. If and only if both fields are set, the controller computes and sets desired `replicas` automatically depending on the demand.
The number of demanded runner replicas is computed by `queued workflow runs + in_progress workflow runs` for the repository. The support for organizational runners is not included.
