Module SDK

SDK to easy compile your hooks as a binary and integrate with addon operator

Usage

One file example

This file must be in 'hooks/' folder to build binary (see examples for correct layout)

package main

import (
  "context"
  "log/slog"

  "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg"
  "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg/app"
  objectpatch "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg/object-patch"
  "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg/registry"
  v1 "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/apis/meta/v1"
)

var _ = registry.RegisterFunc(config, handlerHook)

var config = &pkg.HookConfig{
  Kubernetes: []pkg.KubernetesConfig{
    {
      Name:       "apiservers",
      APIVersion: "v1",
      Kind:       "Pod",
      NamespaceSelector: &pkg.NamespaceSelector{
        NameSelector: &pkg.NameSelector{
          MatchNames: []string{"kube-system"},
        },
      },
      LabelSelector: &v1.LabelSelector{
        MatchLabels: map[string]string{"component": "kube-apiserver"},
      },
      JqFilter: ".metadata.name",
    },
  },
}

func handlerHook(_ context.Context, input *pkg.HookInput) error {
  podNames, err := objectpatch.UnmarshalToStruct[string](input.Snapshots, "apiservers")
  if err != nil {
    return err
  }

  input.Logger.Info("found apiserver pods", slog.Any("podNames", podNames))

  input.Values.Set("test.internal.apiServers", podNames)

  return nil
}

func main() {
  app.Run()
}

Adding Readiness Probes

Readiness probes let your module report its ready status to the Deckhouse addon-operator.

How to Add a Readiness Probe

1. Create a Readiness Function

   Create a function that checks if your module is ready. This function should return nil if everything is okay or an error if the module is not ready.

   func checkReadiness(ctx context.Context) error {
     // Perform your ready checks here
     // Return nil if ready, or error if not ready
     return nil
   }

2. Register Your Readiness Probe

   Register your readiness function when initializing your application:

   func main() {
     readinessConfig := app.ReadinessConfig{
        // you can override it with environment variable
        // default: 15
        IntervalInSeconds: 12,
        ProbeFunc: checkReadiness,
     }
     
     app.RunWithReadinessProbe(readinessConfig)
   }

3. Example: HTTP Endpoint Check

   Here's a complete example that checks if an HTTP endpoint is available:

   package main
   
   import (
     "context"
     "fmt"
     "net/http"
     "time"
   
     "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg/app"
     "github.com/deckhouse/module-sdk/pkg/registry"
   )
   
   var _ = registry.RegisterFunc(config, handlerHook)
   
   // Your regular hook config and handler here
   
   func checkAPIEndpoint(ctx context.Context) error {
       client := input.DC.GetHTTPClient()
     
     req, err := http.NewRequestWithContext(ctx, http.MethodGet, "http://api.example.com/readyz", nil)
     if err != nil {
       return fmt.Errorf("failed to create request: %w", err)
     }
     
     resp, err := client.Do(req)
     if err != nil {
       return fmt.Errorf("API endpoint unreachable: %w", err)
     }
     defer resp.Body.Close()
     
     if resp.StatusCode != http.StatusOK {
       return fmt.Errorf("API endpoint returned non-OK status: %d", resp.StatusCode)
     }
     
     return nil
   }
   
   func main() {
     readinessConfig := app.ReadinessConfig{
       ProbeFunc: checkAPIEndpoint,
     }
     
     app.RunWithReadinessProbe(readinessConfig)
   }

Behavior

• When your readiness function succeeds (returns nil), the module status changes to Ready
• When it fails (returns an error), the status changes to Reconciling with the error message
• The module resource's IsReady condition is updated to reflect the current state
• This lets other components in Deckhouse know when your module is operational

Configuration Options

You can configure the readiness probe using environment variables:

Variable	Description	Default
READINESS_INTERVAL_IN_SECONDS	How often to check readiness (in seconds)	None
MODULE_NAME	Module name used in readiness reporting	default-module

Testing

If you want to test your JQ filter, you can use JQ helper like in example here

For deckhouse developers

Environment variables

Work sequence

Deckhouse register process

1. To register your hooks, add them to import section in main package like in examples
2. Compile your binary and deliver to "hooks" folder in Deckhouse
3. Addon operator finds it automatically and register all your hooks in binary, corresponding with your HookConfigs
4. When addon operator has a reason, it calls hook in your binary
5. After executing hook, addon operator process hook output

Calling hook

1. Addon operator creates temporary files for input and output data (see ENV for examples)
2. Addon operator executes hook with corresponding ID and ENV variables pointed to files
3. Hook reads all files and passes incoming data in HookInput
4. Hook executes and writes all resulting data from collectors contained in HookInput
5. Addon operator reads info from temporary output files

Development Commands

Here are some useful commands from the Makefile to help with development:

Command	Description
make test	Run all tests
make lint	Run linters to check code quality
make examples	Test example modules
make go-module-version	Get current commit "go get" command
