spicedb-operator

2 38 10.0 Go

Kubernetes controller for managing instances of SpiceDB

Project mention: Writing a Kubernetes Operator | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-03-09

This is a common frustration of mine as well!
In the latest release of the spicedb-operator[0], I added a feature that allows users to specify arbitrary patches over operator-managed resources directly in the API (examples in the link).
There are some other projects like Kyverno and Gatekeeper that try to do this generically with mutating webhooks, but embedding a `patches` API into the operator itself gives the operator a chance to ensure the changes are within some reasonable guardrails.
