To improve the documentation we need to split it into smaller parts:
* quickstart (in the readme)
* general concepts
* tutorials
* how to
* references
And then add the missing information. So far I just split the existing
documentation and left references almost empty. I assume that references
may duplicate the rest of the documentation in a way that the doc will
have references to this section, that contains all the formal details.
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
* Bump up a Spilo version to use Patroni >= v1.4.4 ; this fixes issues with k8s 1.10 API changes
* Bump up an operator version to use the new 'etcd_host' default value
* Re-use 'zalando-postgres-operator' as a pod service account and add extra RBAC permissions to make it work
* Document in quickstart connecting to Postgres via psql
After an unsuccessful initial cluster sync it may happen that the
cluster statefulset is empty. This has been made more likely since
88d6a7be3, since it has introduced syncing volumes before statefulsets,
and the volume sync mail fail for different reasons (i.e. the volume has
been shrinked, or too many calls to Amazon).
Some special patroni postgresql parameters, like max_connections,
should reside in the bootstrap.dcs.postgresql.parameters section
to come into effect.
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.
Do not use statefulset number of pods to figure out running ones
for volume resizing, since the statefulset pointer could be nil.
Instead, look at the actual running pods.
Avoid sharing pointers to the same spec data between the informer
and the clusters. The only catch is that the error field is cleared
during deepcopy, since it is an interface that may contain private
fields that cannot be copied, however, the error is only used when
the manifest is parsed and before it is queued, therefore, we never
refer to that field in the cluster structure.
987b434 introduced a new function that modifies the cluster spec in
memory before the cluster processes it. Unfortunately, the instance
being modified appeared to be the one stored internally in the
PostgresInformer, resulting in those modifications to be propagated with
futher cluster events and producing update loops in some occasions.
This commit makes sure we copy the spec before putting it into the
clusterEventQueues.
