Client-go provides a https://github.com/kubernetes/code-generator package in order to provide the API to work with CRDs similar to the one available for built-in types, i.e. Pods, Statefulsets and so on.
Use this package to generate deepcopy methods (required for CRDs), instead of using an external deepcopy package; we also generate APIs used to manipulate both Postgres and OperatorConfiguration CRDs, as well as informers and listers for the Postgres CRD, instead of using generic informers and CRD REST API; by using generated code we can get rid of some custom and obscure CRD-related code and use a better API.
All generated code resides in /pkg/generated, with an exception of zz_deepcopy.go in apis/acid.zalan.do/v1
Rename postgres-operator-configuration CRD to OperatorConfiguration, since the former broke naming convention in the code-generator.
Moved Postgresql, PostgresqlList, OperatorConfiguration and OperatorConfigurationList and other types used by them into
Change the type of the Error field in the Postgresql crd to a string, so that client-go could generate a deepcopy for it.
Use generated code to set status of CRD objects as well. Right now this is done with patch, however, Kubernetes 1.11 introduces the /status subresources, allowing us to set the status with
the special updateStatus call in the future. For now, we keep the code that is compatible with earlier versions of Kubernetes.
Rename postgresql.go to database.go and status.go to logs_and_api.go to reflect the purpose of each of those files.
Update client-go dependencies.
Minor reformatting and renaming.
Previously, the operator put pg_hba into the bootstrap/pg_hba key of
Patroni. That had 2 adverse effects:
- pg_hba.conf was shadowed by Spilo default section in the local
postgresql configuration
- when updating pg_hba in the cluster manifest, the updated lines were
not propagated to DCS, since the key was defined in the boostrap
section of Patroni.
Include some minor refactoring, moving methods to unexported when
possible and commenting out usage of md5, so that gosec won't complain.

Run more linters in the gometalinter, i.e. deadcode, megacheck,
nakedret, dup.
More consistent code formatting, remove two dead functions, eliminate
naked a bunch of naked returns, refactor a few functions to avoid code
duplication.
* Allow configuring pod priority globally and per cluster.
Allow to specify pod priority class for all pods managed by the operator,
as well as for those belonging to individual clusters.
Controlled by the pod_priority_class_name operator configuration
parameter and the podPriorityClassName manifest option.
See https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/pod-priority-preemption/#priorityclass
for the explanation on how to define priority classes since Kubernetes 1.8.
Some import order changes are due to go fmt.
Removal of OrphanDependents deprecated field.

There are shortcuts in this code, i.e. we created the deepcopy function
by using the deepcopy package instead of the generated code, that will
be addressed once migrated to client-go v8. Also, some objects,
particularly statefulsets, are still taken from v1beta, this will also
be addressed in further commits once the changes are stabilized.
A repair is a sync scan that acts only on those clusters that indicate
that the last add, update or sync operation on them has failed. It is
supposed to kick in more frequently than the repair scan. The repair
scan still remains to be useful to fix the consequences of external
actions (i.e. someone deletes a postgres-related service by mistake)
unbeknownst to the operator.
The repair scan is controlled by the new repair_period parameter in the
operator configuration. It has to be at least 2 times more frequent than
a sync scan to have any effect (a normal sync scan will update both last
synced and last repaired attributes of the controller, since repair is
just a sync underneath).
A repair scan could be queued for a cluster that is already being synced
if the sync period exceeds the interval between repairs. In that case a
repair event will be discarded once the corresponding worker finds out
that the cluster is not failing anymore.

* During initial Event processing submit the service account for pods and bind it to a cluster role that allows Patroni to successfully start. The cluster role is assumed to be created by the k8s cluster administrator.
* Up until now, the operator read its own configuration from the
configmap. That has a number of limitations, i.e. when the
configuration value is not a scalar, but a map or a list. We use a
custom code based on github.com/kelseyhightower/envconfig to decode
non-scalar values out of plain text keys, but that breaks when the data
inside the keys contains both YAML-special elememtns (i.e. commas) and
complex quotes, one good example for that is search_path inside
`team_api_role_configuration`. In addition, reliance on the configmap
forced a flag structure on the configuration, making it hard to write
and to read (see
https://github.com/zalando-incubator/postgres-operator/pull/308#issuecomment-395131778).
The changes allow to supply the operator configuration in a proper YAML
file. That required registering a custom CRD to support the operator
configuration and provide an example at
manifests/postgresql-operator-default-configuration.yaml. At the moment,
both old configmap and the new CRD configuration is supported, so no
compatibility issues, however, in the future I'd like to deprecate the
configmap-based configuration altogether. Contrary to the
configmap-based configuration, the CRD one doesn't embed defaults into
the operator code, however, one can use the
manifests/postgresql-operator-default-configuration.yaml as a starting
point in order to build a custom configuration.
Since previously `ReadyWaitInterval` and `ReadyWaitTimeout` parameters
used to create the CRD were taken from the operator configuration, which
is not possible if the configuration itself is stored in the CRD object,
I've added the ability to specify them as environment variables
`CRD_READY_WAIT_INTERVAL` and `CRD_READY_WAIT_TIMEOUT` respectively.
Per review by @zerg-junior and @Jan-M.
* Switchover must wait for the inner goroutine before it returns.
Otherwise, two corner cases may happen:
- waitForPodLabel writes to the podLabelErr channel that has been
already closed by the outer routine
- the outer routine exists and the caller subscribes to the pod
the inner goroutine has already subscribed to, resulting in panic.
The previous commit fe47f9ebea
that touched that code added the cancellation channel, but didn't bother
to actually wait for the goroutine to be cancelled.
Per report and review from @valer-cara.
Original issue: https://github.com/zalando-incubator/postgres-operator/issues/342
Call Patroni API /config in order to set special options that are
ignored when set in the configuration file, such as max_connections.
Per https://github.com/zalando-incubator/postgres-operator/issues/297
* Some minor refacoring:
Rename Cluster ManualFailover to Swithover
Rename Patroni Failover to Switchover
Add more details to error messages and comments introduced in this PR.
Review by @zerg-junior
When there is an error happening upon deletion of the Kubernetes object
belonging to the cluster being removed, it makes no sense to abort the
deletion: the manifest will be removed anyway, therefore all the objects
after the one we aborted at will stay forever.
* Depreate old LB options, fix endpoint sync.
- deprecate useLoadBalancer, replicaLoadBalancer from the manifest
and enable_load_balancer from the operator configuration. The old
operator configuration options become no-op with this commit. For
the old manifest options, `useLoadBalancer` and `replicaLoadBalancer`
are still consulted, but only in the absense of the new ones
(enableMasterLoadBalancer and enableReplicaLoadBalancer).
- Make sure the endpoint being created during the sync receives proper
addresses subset. This is more critical for the replicas, as for the
masters Patroni will normally re-create the endpoint before the
operator.
- Avoid creating the replica endpoint, since it will be created automatically
by the corresponding service.
- Update the README and unit tests.

* Improve the pod moving behavior during the Kubernetes cluster upgrade.
Fix an issue of not waiting for at least one replica to become ready
(if the Statefulset indicates there are replicas) when moving the master
pod off the decomissioned node. Resolves the first part of #279.
Small fixes to error messages.
* Eliminate a race condition during the swithover.
When the operator initiates the failover (switchover) that fails and
then retries it for a second time it may happen that the previous
waitForPodChannel is still active. As a result, the operator subscribes
to the former master pod two times, causing a panic.
The problem was that the original code didn't bother to cancel the
waitForPodLalbel for the new master pod in the case when the failover
fails. This commit fixes it by adding a stop channel to that function.

Compare pods controller revisions with the one for the statefulset
to determine whether the pod is running the latest revision and,
therefore, no rolling update is necessary. This is performed only
during the operator start, afterwards the rolling update status
that is stored locally in the cluster structure is used for all
rolling update decisions.
* Remove 'team' label from the statefulset selector.
I was never supposed to be there, but implicitely statefulset
creates a selector out of meta.labels field. That is the problem
with recent Kubernetes, since statefulset cannot pick up pods
with non-matching label selectors, and we rely on statefulset
picking up old pods after statefulset replacement.
Make sure selector changes trigger replacement of the statefulset.
In the case new selector has more labels than the old one nothing
should be done with a statefulset, otherwise the new statefulset
won't see orphaned pods from the old one, as they won't match the
selector.
See https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/46901#issuecomment-356418393
Enhance definitions of infrastructure roles by allowing membership in multiple roles, role options and per-role configuration to be specified in the infrastructure role configmap, which must have the same name as the infrastructure role secret. See manifests/infrastructure-roles-configmap.yaml for the examples and updated README for the description of different types of database roles supposed by the operator and their purposes.
Change the logic of merging infrastructure roles with the manifest roles when they have the same name, to return the infrastructure role unchanged instead of merging. Previously, we used to propagate flags from the manifest role to the resulting infrastructure one, as there were no way to define flags for the infrastructure role; however, this is not the case anymore.
Code review and tests by @erthalion
* Track origin of roles.
* Propagate changes on infrastructure roles to corresponding secrets.
When the password in the infrastructure role is updated, re-generate the
secret for that role.
Previously, the password for an infrastructure role was always fetched from
the secret, making any updates to such role a no-op after the corresponding
secret had been generated.
There used to be a masterLess flag that was supposed to indicate whether the cluster it belongs to runs without the acting master by design. At some point, as we didn't really have support for such clusters, the flag has been misused to indicate there is no master in the cluster. However, that was not done consistently (a cluster without all pods running would never be masterless, even when the master is not among the running pods) and it was based on the wrong assumption that the masterless cluster will remain masterless until the next attempt to change that flag, ignoring the possibility of master coming up or some node doing a successful promotion. Therefore, this PR gets rid of that flag completely.
When the cluster is running with 0 instances, there is obviously no master and it makes no sense to create any database objects inside the non-existing master. Therefore, this PR introduces an additional check for that.
recreatePods were assuming that the roles of the pods recorded when the function has stared will not change; for instance, terminated replica pods should start as replicas. Revisit that assumption by looking at the actual role of the re-spawned pods; that avoids a failover if some replica has promoted to the master role while being re-spawned. In addition, if the failover from the old master was unsuccessful, we used to stop and leave the old master running on an old pod, without recording this fact anywhere. This PR makes the failover failure emit a warning, but not stop recreating the last master pod; in the worst case, the running master will be terminated, however, this case is rather unlikely one.
As a side effect, make waitForPodLabel return the pod definition it waited for, avoiding extra API calls in recreatePods and movePodFromEndOfLifeNode
Introduce a new lock called specMu lock to protect the cluster spec.
This lock is held on update and sync, and when retrieving the spec in
the API code. There is no need to acquire it for cluster creation and
deletion: creation assigns the spec to the cluster before linking it to
the controller, and deletion just removes the cluster from the list in
the controller, both holding the global clustersMu Lock.
* Scalyr agent sidecar for log shipping
* Remove the default for the Scalyr image
Now the image needs to be specified explicitly to enable log shipping to
Scalyr. This removes the problem of having to generate the config file
or publish our agent image repository.
* Add configuration variable for Scalyr server URL
Defaults to the EU address.
* Alter style
Newlines are cheap and make code easier to edit/refactor, but ok.
* Fix StatefulSet comparison logic
I broke it when I made the comparison consider all containers in the
PostgreSQL pod.
* Make sure the statefulset that is deleted manually gets re-created.
Per report and analysis by Manuel Gomez.
* Move the existence checks for other objects out of the Create functions.
create{Object} for services, endpoints and PDBs refused to continue if
there is a cached definition in the cluster, however, the only place
where it makes sense is when creating a new cluster. Note that contrary
to the statefulset this doesn't fix any issues, since those definitions
were nullified correspondingly when the sync code detected there is no
object present in the Kubernetes cluster.
- make sure that the secrets for the system users (superuser, replication)
are not deleted when the main cluster is. Therefore, we can re-create
the cluster, potentially forcing Patroni to restore it from the backup
and enable Patroni to connect, since it will use the old password, not
the newly generated random one.
- when syncing users, always check whether they are already in the DB.
Previously, we did this only for the sync cluster case, but the new
cluster could be actually the one restored from the backup by Patroni,
having all or some of the users already in place.
- delete endponts last. Patroni uses the $clustername endpoint in order
to store the leader related metadata. If we remove it before removing
all pods, one of those pods running Patroni will re-create it and the
next attempt to create the cluster with the same name will stuble on
the existing endpoint.
- Use db.Exec instead of db.Query for queries that expect no result.
This also fixes the issue with the DB creation, since we didn't
release an empty Row object it was not possible to create more than
one database for a cluster.
* Avoid overwriting critical users.
Disallow defining new users either in the cluster manifest, teams
API or infrastructure roles with the names mentioned in the new
protected_role_names parameter (list of comma-separated names)
Additionally, forbid defining a user with the name matching either
super_username or replication_username, so that we don't overwrite
system roles required for correct working of the operator itself.
Also, clear PostgreSQL roles on each sync first in order to avoid using
the old definitions that are no longer present in the current manifest,
infrastructure roles secret or the teams API.
