Setting up the webhooks

Our conversion is in place, so all that’s left is to tell controller-runtime about our conversion.

Normally, we’d run

kubebuilder create webhook --group batch --version v1 --kind CronJob --conversion

to scaffold out the webhook setup. However, we’ve already got webhook setup, from when we built our defaulting and validating webhooks!

Webhook setup...

Go imports
package v1

import (
	"github.com/robfig/cron"
	apierrors "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/api/errors"
	"k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime"
	"k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime/schema"

	"sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime/pkg/webhook"
)
var cronjoblog = logf.Log.WithName("cronjob-resource")

This setup is doubles as setup for our conversion webhooks: as long as our types implement the Hub and Convertible interfaces, a conversion webhook will be registered.

func (r *CronJob) SetupWebhookWithManager(mgr ctrl.Manager) error {
	return ctrl.NewWebhookManagedBy(mgr).
		For(r).
		Complete()
}
Existing Defaulting and Validation
var _ webhook.Defaulter = &CronJob{}

func (r *CronJob) Default() {

	// structured validation errors.

func validateScheduleFormat(schedule string, fldPath *field.Path) *field.Error {

...and main.go

Similarly, our existing main file is sufficient:

	mgr, err := ctrl.NewManager(ctrl.GetConfigOrDie(), ctrl.Options{
		Scheme:             scheme,
		MetricsBindAddress: metricsAddr,
		LeaderElection:     enableLeaderElection,
	})
	if err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to start manager")
		os.Exit(1)
	}

	if err = (&controllers.CronJobReconciler{
		Client: mgr.GetClient(),

	}).SetupWithManager(mgr); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to create controller", "controller", "Captain")
		os.Exit(1)
	}

Our existing call to SetupWebhookWithManager registers our conversion webhooks with the manager, too.

	if err = (&batchv1.CronJob{}).SetupWebhookWithManager(mgr); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to create webhook", "webhook", "Captain")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	// +kubebuilder:scaffold:builder
existing setup
	setupLog.Info("starting manager")
	if err := mgr.Start(ctrl.SetupSignalHandler()); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "problem running manager")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
}

Everything’s set up and ready to go! All that’s left now is to test out our webhooks.
