Extend infrastructure roles handling
Postgres Operator uses infrastructure roles to provide access to a database for
external users e.g. for monitoring purposes. Such infrastructure roles are
expected to be present in the form of k8s secrets with the following content:
inrole1: some_encrypted_role
password1: some_encrypted_password
user1: some_entrypted_name
inrole2: some_encrypted_role
password2: some_encrypted_password
user2: some_entrypted_name
The format of this content is implied implicitly and not flexible enough. In
case if we do not have possibility to change the format of a secret we want to
use in the Operator, we need to recreate it in this format.
To address this lets make the format of secret content explicitly. The idea is
to introduce a new configuration option for the Operator.
infrastructure_roles_secrets:
- secretname: k8s_secret_name
userkey: some_encrypted_name
passwordkey: some_encrypted_password
rolekey: some_encrypted_role
- secretname: k8s_secret_name
userkey: some_encrypted_name
passwordkey: some_encrypted_password
rolekey: some_encrypted_role
This would allow Operator to use any avalable secrets to prepare infrastructure
roles. To make it backward compatible simulate the old behaviour if the new
option is not present.
The new configuration option is intended be used mainly from CRD, but it's also
available via Operator ConfigMap in a limited fashion. For ConfigMap one can
put there only a string with one secret definition in the following format (as
a string):
infrastructure_roles_secrets: |
secretname: k8s_secret_name,
userkey: some_encrypted_name,
passwordkey: some_encrypted_password,
rolekey: some_encrypted_role
Note than only one secret could be specified this way, no multiple secrets are
allowed.
Eventually the resulting list of infrastructure roles would be a total sum of
all supported ways to describe it, namely legacy via
infrastructure_roles_secret_name and infrastructure_roles_secrets from both
ConfigMap and CRD.

Connection pooler support
Add support for a connection pooler. The idea is to make it generic enough to
be able to switch between different implementations (e.g. pgbouncer or
odyssey). Operator needs to create a deployment with pooler and a service for
it to access.
For connection pool to work properly, a database needs to be prepared by
operator, namely a separate user have to be created with an access to an
installed lookup function (to fetch credential for other users).
This setups is supposed to be used only by robot/application users. Usually a
connection pool implementation is more CPU bounded, so it makes sense to create
several pods for connection pool with more emphasize on cpu resources. At the
moment there are no special affinity or tolerations assigned to bring those
pods closer to the database. For availability purposes minimal number of
connection pool pods is 2, ideally they have to be distributed between
different nodes/AZ, but it's not enforced in the operator itself. Available
configuration supposed to be ergonomic and in the normal case require minimum
changes to a manifest to enable connection pool. To have more control over the
configuration and functionality on the pool side one can customize the
corresponding docker image.

* bump version to 1.4.0 + some polishing
* align version for UI chart
* update user docs to warn for standby replicas
* minor log message changes for RBAC resources
* add validation for PG resources and volume size
* check resource requests also on UPDATE and SYNC + update docs
* if cluster was running don't error on sync
This will set up a continuous wal streaming cluster, by adding the corresponding section in postgres manifest. Instead of having a full-fledged standby cluster as in Patroni, here we use only the wal path of the source cluster and stream from there.
Since, standby cluster is streaming from the master and does not require to create or use databases of it's own. Hence, it bypasses the creation of users or databases.
There is a separate sample manifest added to set up a standby-cluster.
* Minor improvements
* Document empty list vs null for users without privileges
* Change the wording for null values
* Add talk by Oleksii in Atmosphere
* Define sidecars in the operator configuration.
Right now only the name and the docker image can be defined, but with
the help of the pod_environment_configmap parameter arbitrary
environment variables can be passed to the sidecars.
* Refactoring around generatePodTemplate.
