Switch Fission's storage over to the new CustomResourceDefinitions, from the deprecated ThirdPartyResources. This allows us to be compatible with Kubernets 1.8 and onwards.
This also adds a CLI tool for dumping state from an old fission version and restoring state into new CRDs.
The storage service is unaffected by this change.
Introduce _Archives_ as a type to reference arbitrary blobs.
_Packages_ are a pair of Source and Deployment archives. Packages have an environment reference.
Functions reference a package. Multiple functions can reference the same package.
Watch functions in the router and use that to trigger functionReferenceResolver cache invalidation.
We might want to rate-limit syncTriggers in a future change, since we might be triggering it more often than needed.
This changes the core fission function, environment and trigger types. It also changes Fission's storage to use ThirdPartyResources.
- Functions are now specified by packages. Functions can also have both source and deployment packages. A package can be specified by a literal, or by a URL.
- Environments have a build and runtime component.
- Triggers reference functions by a FunctionReference. This is a layer of indirection between triggers and functions, and will allow things like incremental function upgrades in future releases.
See Documentation/wip/env-v2.md for design discussion about points 1 and 2.
Changes:
* V2 Types
All types now have a spec, following the pattern of K8s objects.
Functions now have source and deployment packages. A Package can be
specified by literal, or by URL.
Environments now have a builder and runtime component.
All triggers use a new FunctionReference to specify the function. This
for now only uses a function name, but in the future can be extended
to be more flexible.
A new FunctionLoadRequest type is added for specialization requests to
the environment runtime.
* TPR types, TPR init code, and a "fission client"
Implements TPR types using the spec types in fission/types.go.
Adds code for adding creating TPR types, and convenient types for crud
operations on each of our resource types.
Adds code for connecting to K8s API and configuring a REST client with
fission types set up.
* Change old stateful controller into a thin apiserver
This apiserver is now simply a stateless api layer on top of the TPR
types. At the moment it doesn't do anything that couldn't be done by
simply talking to the TPR types. In the future we can have better
validation and potentially some higher level APIs (like versioning for
example) in here.
* Split controller client into files and update for v2 types.
* Update CLI for v2 types.
As far as possible we keep the CLI flags the same. We'll have to add
flags for source/deploy packages and builder/runtime
environments. That will come in the next change.
* Update poolmgr and fetcher for v2 types.
Also adds a poolmgr_test.
* Update router for new types.
Also adds a function reference resolver, which separates out the job
of resolving a FunctionReference to a function.
* Update kubewatcher and timer for v2 types.
* Update Message Queue trigger type for v2 types.
* Minor odds and ends.
* Fission bundle CLI updates
Remove controllerUrl flag, since we don't need it any more.
* Remove etcd deployment (replaced by storing state in TPR)
Also update the poolmgr commandline, and use an env var for the
fetcher image URL.
* Explicit ChecksumType and consts
* Clarify separation of environment interface types
Addresses issue #51. Makes versioning in poolmgr explicit, so its
cache needs no invalidation on version update. Functions in poolmgr
are always cached by name and UID.
Router now updates implictly versioned routes with the latest version
of a function.
This means that users will see requests to implicitly-versioned routes
go to the latest version of a function within 3 seconds. (Those 3 sec
will go away when we use a real watch instead of polling the
controller.)
There's no change in behaviour for routes that explictly specify a
function UID.
Idle pod reaper wakes up once a minute, looks in the functionServiceCache for pods that
haven't been accessed for more than idlePodReapTime, and deletes all such pods.
(This doesn't yet delete pods that may be leaked from previously terminated poolmgrs; it
only works with pods created by the current poolmgr instance.)
Move separate caches to one cache -- functionServiceCache. It can be
looked up by function, can update atime by address, and can be deleted
by podname. This removes the other caches. Some of the concurrency
logic is still a bit hairy; it might be better not to use fission.Cache.
Poolmgr needs to know usage statistics for a function's pod. This
change asynchronously taps poolmgr API when router uses a service.
Poolmgr can use this information to control pod expiry. It may also
be useful later as one of the metrics for autoscaling.
Switch to client-go package instead of pulling the from kubernetes.
Use a versioned client with sensible compatiblity.
This change breaks 'go get'. For now you have to manually checkout
the 'release-1.4' branch of the client-go package after 'go get'
fetches it. TODO: use one of the build tools to fix this.
GenericPool is a pool of generic containers for an environment.
GenericPoolManager keeps track of all GenericPools, creating them
on-demand.
The pool manager API is simply a "lookup" for the service URL of a
function. If one exists it is returned immediately; otherwise, a
generic pool is created, and then a pod is specialized from that pool.
poolmgr is designed to run from within the cluster, since it connects
to pod IP addresses directly.
This is a first cut with many pieces missing.
TODO:
* Use versioned kubernetes clients instead of the unversioned one
* Unit tests for GenericPoolMgr; improve unit test for GenericPool;
test for API.
* Handle cases where a service exists but pod backing it has failed.
* On start up, use existing deployments/pods/services if they exist;
in other words don't orphan resources on restart.
* Kill idle resources (services, pods, even generic pools)
* Autoscale generic pool (for example, by watching num ready pods)
