# terdut-operator

Kubebuilder/controller-runtime operator for terdut-server. See `DESIGN.md` for the
settled design (CRD catalog, reconciliation semantics, bootstrap/auth, RBAC) and
`ROADMAP.md` for the staged build plan this repo is following. `README.md` stays the
short pitch.

## Checks

`make fmt lint test helm-lint` is the CI gate (`.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml`'s `test`,
`security` and `chart` jobs call these targets rather than restating them, same
convention as terdut-server). `test` chains through the Kubebuilder-scaffolded
`manifests`/`generate` (`controller-gen`) and `setup-envtest` targets automatically —
everything needed lands in `bin/` (gitignored) on first run, no separate tool install
required beyond Go itself and network access to `proxy.golang.org`/`storage.googleapis.com`.
`security` runs `make security-go`/`security-secrets` (govulncheck/gitleaks), same as
terdut-server's own `security` job.

The kubebuilder-scaffolded `make test-e2e` (a disposable, generic smoke test) is separate
from the real golden-path `kind` e2e pass ROADMAP.md's Stage 5 describes (create every CRD
kind, verify against terdut-server's own API, delete, verify gone) — the latter is a
manual pass run and recorded in ROADMAP.md, not a CI job, matching Stage 1-4's own
precedent of validating against a real cluster outside CI.

## Release

Wired as of Stage 5 (ROADMAP.md): `.release.conf`, `make release-vars`/`helm-lint`/
`push`/`helm-package`/`helm-push`/`release`, and `.gitea/workflows/release.yaml`
(`test` → `image`/`chart` → `scan-image`) all follow terdut-server's established shape —
see that repo's Makefile/`.release.conf` for the shared reasoning, not restated here.

The chart is `charts/terdut-operator` (via kubebuilder's own `helm/v2-alpha` plugin,
regenerate with `kubebuilder edit --plugins helm.kubebuilder.io/v2-alpha --output-dir
charts --force` after `config/` changes, then re-review — `--force` does not touch
`Chart.yaml` but does touch `values.yaml`, which carries hand-written additions, most
importantly the optional `terdutServer` block, DESIGN.md §10). It installs the operator +
CRDs + RBAC, and optionally one `TerdutServer` CR (`terdutServer.enabled`, off by default).

That one-time manual step — hand-creating the initial `terdut-operator/` wrapper entry
under `Ryuvia/charts`, since `chart-bump` only ever bumps an existing one — is done. It
happened during this repo's actual first release (v0.1.1, 2026-10-01; v0.1.0 published but
never deployed anywhere, after its own `scan-image` found a CVE in the grpc version it had
just bumped to). Every release since bumps that wrapper entry like any other onboarded
repo's.
