Crunchy Bridge Operator

Building the Operator

if you are using podman instead of docker set CONTAINER_ENGINE as podman export CONTAINER_ENGINE=podman

  • Build Operator make build
  • For build and push the operator image, operator-bundle image and operator-catalog image to a registry run: make releasemake sure change the registry under - Makefile and set ORG with your own Quay.io Org!
  • make release is commented out while the release process is being considered
  • For more make commands run make help
  • see operator-sdk documentation for further info

Running the Operator

Prerequisite Tools

Run as a local instance:

  • make install run INSTALL_NAMESPACE=<your_target_namespace>

Deploy & run on a cluster:

  • oc project <your_target_namespace>
  • make deploy
  • When finished, remove deployment via:
    • make undeploy

Deploy via OLM on cluster:

  • Make sure to edit Makefile and set ORG with your own Quay.io Org!
  • Next edit the catalog-source.yaml template to indicate your new Quay.io org image
  • make release catalog-update
  • search the Crunchy Bridge Operator in OperatorHub, click on install.

Test Database as a Service (DBaaS) on OpenShift

The Crunchy Bridge Operator is integrated with the Red Hat Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) Operator which allows application developers to import database instances and connect to the databases through the Service Binding Operator. More information can be found here.

Note that both the DBaaS Operator and Crunchy Bridge Operator should be installed through the Operator Lifecyle Manager (OLM).

1. Check DBaaS Registration

If the DBaaS Operator has been deployed in the OpenShift Cluster, the Crunchy Bridge Operator automatically creates a cluster level DBaaSProvider custom resource (CR) object crunchy-bridge-registration to automatically register itself with the DBaaS Operator.

apiVersion: dbaas.redhat.com/v1alpha1
kind: DBaaSProvider
metadata:
  name: crunchy-bridge-registration
  labels:
    related-to: dbaas-operator
    type: dbaas-provider-registration
spec:
  provider:
    name: Red Hat DBaaS / Crunchy Bridge
    displayName: Crunchy Bridge managed PostgreSQL
    displayDescription: The Crunchy Bridge Fully Managed Postgres as a Service.
    icon:
      base64data: <>
      mediatype: image/png
  inventoryKind: CrunchyBridgeInventory
  connectionKind: CrunchyBridgeConnection
  credentialFields:
    - key: publicApiKey
      displayName: Public API Key
      type: string
      required: true
    - key: privateApiSecret
      displayName: Private API Secret
      type: maskedstring
      required: true

If the crunchy bridge Operator is undeployed with the OLM, the above registration CR gets cleaned up automatically.

2. Creating a Secret

Administrator will first create the secret with Application ID and Application Secret, for creating a secret. See more, API Reference

kubectl create secret generic crunchy-bridge-api-key  --from-literal="publicApiKey=<Application ID>"   --from-literal="privateApiSecret=<Application Secret>"   -n crunchy-bridge-operator-system

3. Creating CrunchyBridgeInventory Custom Resource

Administrator will creates a DBaaSInventory CR for CrunchyBrige. The DBaaS Operator automatically creates a CrunchyBridgeInventory CR, and the crunchy-bridge Operator discovers the clusters and instances, and sets the result in the CR status.

The CRs status will be updated with list of clusters, as seen below

example:

Instances:
    Extra Info:
      Cpu:            1
      created_at:     2021-04-01 19:36:19.937782 +0000 UTC
      is_ha:          false
      major_version:  13
      Memory:         2
      provider_id:    aws
      region_id:      us-east-1
      Storage:        100
      team_id:        vp6hlxjcl5g73furjiztcrr2vi
      updated_at:     2021-06-04 21:30:57.53937 +0000 UTC
    Instance ID:      475ow3natngrhaffymv7fbxmha
    Name:             sampledatabasse

3. Creating CrunchyBridgeConnection Custom resource

Now the application developer can create a DBaaSConnection CR for connection to the Crunchy database instance using from the list of instances, the DBaaS Operator automatically creates CrunchyBridgeConnection CR. The crunchy Operator stores the db user credentials in a kubernetes secret, and the remaining connection information in a configmap, and then updates the CrunchyBridgeConnection CR status.

The CRs status will be updated with connection details of specified instance ID as seen example:

  connectionInfoRef:
   name: crunchy-bridge-db-conn-cm-k8rkv // name of configmap contains connection info like host, port, datbase name
  credentialsRef:
   name: crunchy-bridge-db-credentials-vmml2 // name of secret contains username and password
