Using the Knative sample repository

The Knative project provides a sample repository that contains a template for a basic event source controller and a receive adapter.

Prerequisites

  • You are familiar with Kubernetes and Go development.
  • You have installed Git.
  • You have installed Go.
  • You have cloned the sample-source repository.

Optional:

Sample files overview

Receiver adapter files

  • cmd/receive_adapter/main.go - Translates resource variables to the underlying adapter structure, so that they can be passed into the Knative system.

  • pkg/adapter/adapter.go - The functions that support receiver adapter translation of events to CloudEvents.

Controller files

  • cmd/controller/main.go - Passes the event source's NewController implementation to the shared main method.

  • pkg/reconciler/sample/controller.go - The NewController implementation that is passed to the shared main method.

CRD files

  • pkg/apis/samples/VERSION/samplesource_types.go - The schema for the underlying API types, which provide the variables to be defined in the resource YAML file.

Reconciler files

  • pkg/reconciler/sample/samplesource.go - The reconciliation functions for the receive adapter.

  • pkg/apis/samples/VERSION/samplesource_lifecycle.go - Contains status information for the event source’s reconciliation details:

    • Source ready
    • Sink provided
    • Deployed
    • EventType provided
    • Kubernetes resources correct

Procedure

  1. Define the types required in the resource’s schema in pkg/apis/samples/v1alpha1/samplesource_types.go.

    This includes the fields that are required in the resource YAML, as well as those referenced in the controller using the source’s clientset and API:

    // +genclient
    // +genreconciler
    // +k8s:deepcopy-gen:interfaces=k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime.Object
    // +k8s:openapi-gen=true
    type SampleSource struct {
        metav1.TypeMeta `json:",inline"`
        // +optional
        metav1.ObjectMeta `json:"metadata,omitempty"`
    
        // Spec holds the desired state of the SampleSource (from the client).
        Spec SampleSourceSpec `json:"spec"`
    
        // Status communicates the observed state of the SampleSource (from the controller).
        // +optional
        Status SampleSourceStatus `json:"status,omitempty"`
    }
    
    // SampleSourceSpec holds the desired state of the SampleSource (from the client).
    type SampleSourceSpec struct {
        // inherits duck/v1 SourceSpec, which currently provides:
        // * Sink - a reference to an object that will resolve to a domain name or
        //   a URI directly to use as the sink.
        // * CloudEventOverrides - defines overrides to control the output format
        //   and modifications of the event sent to the sink.
        duckv1.SourceSpec `json:",inline"`
    
        // ServiceAccountName holds the name of the Kubernetes service account
        // as which the underlying K8s resources should be run. If unspecified
        // this will default to the "default" service account for the namespace
        // in which the SampleSource exists.
        // +optional
        ServiceAccountName string `json:"serviceAccountName,omitempty"`
    
        // Interval is the time interval between events.
        //
        // The string format is a sequence of decimal numbers, each with optional
        // fraction and a unit suffix, such as "300ms", "-1.5h" or "2h45m". Valid time
        // units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h". If unspecified
        // this will default to "10s".
        Interval string `json:"interval"`
    }
    
    // SampleSourceStatus communicates the observed state of the SampleSource (from the controller).
    type SampleSourceStatus struct {
        duckv1.Status `json:",inline"`
    
        // SinkURI is the current active sink URI that has been configured
        // for the SampleSource.
        // +optional
        SinkURI *apis.URL `json:"sinkUri,omitempty"`
    }
    
  2. Define the lifecycle to be reflected in the status and SinkURI fields:

    const (
        // SampleConditionReady has status True when the SampleSource is ready to send events.
        SampleConditionReady = apis.ConditionReady
        // ...
    )
    
  3. Set the lifecycle conditions by defining the functions to be called from the reconciler functions. This is typically done in pkg/apis/samples/VERSION/samplesource_lifecycle.go:

    // InitializeConditions sets relevant unset conditions to Unknown state.
    func (s *SampleSourceStatus) InitializeConditions() {
        SampleCondSet.Manage(s).InitializeConditions()
    }
    
    ...
    
    // MarkSink sets the condition that the source has a sink configured.
    func (s *SampleSourceStatus) MarkSink(uri *apis.URL) {
        s.SinkURI = uri
        if len(uri.String()) > 0 {
            SampleCondSet.Manage(s).MarkTrue(SampleConditionSinkProvided)
        } else {
            SampleCondSet.Manage(s).MarkUnknown(SampleConditionSinkProvided, "SinkEmpty", "Sink has resolved to empty.%s", "")
        }
    }
    
    // MarkNoSink sets the condition that the source does not have a sink configured.
    func (s *SampleSourceStatus) MarkNoSink(reason, messageFormat string, messageA ...interface{}) {
        SampleCondSet.Manage(s).MarkFalse(SampleConditionSinkProvided, reason, messageFormat, messageA...)
    }
