operator: update from operatorhub feedback #194
Conversation
WalkthroughChanges enhance operator metadata with expanded CRD descriptions and maintainer information, introduce sample resource manifests for Client, Exporter, ExporterAccessPolicy, and Lease resources, add a Makefile step to copy generated CRDs to operator configuration directories, document the Client resource, update manager image references, and provide a community contribution automation script.

5-157: Add Jumpstarter example to alm-examples in base CSV to match bundle manifest.The base CSV is missing the Jumpstarter example that exists in the bundle CSV. While other fields (minKubeVersion, CRD descriptions, maintainers, icon) are consistent, the
alm-examplessection differs:
- Base: 4 examples (Client, Exporter, ExporterAccessPolicy, Lease)
- Bundle: 5 examples (Client, Exporter, ExporterAccessPolicy, Lease, Jumpstarter)
Add the Jumpstarter example to the base's alm-examples to maintain full parity with the bundle manifest:
{ "apiVersion": "operator.jumpstarter.dev/v1alpha1", "kind": "Jumpstarter", "metadata": { "name": "jumpstarter-sample" }, "spec": null }

16-16: Add error handling tocdcommand.Per shellcheck warning SC2164, the
cdcommand should include error handling to prevent the script from continuing in an unexpected directory if the change fails.Apply this fix:
-cd community-operators +cd community-operators || exit 1
18-18: Add error handling to VERSION extraction.The VERSION extraction on line 18 could fail silently if the CSV file is missing or malformed, leaving
VERSIONempty and causing line 23 to create a directory with an empty name. Add validation to detect and report extraction failures.Apply this fix:
VERSION=$(grep "^ version:" ../../bundle/manifests/jumpstarter-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml | awk '{print $2}') + +if [ -z "$VERSION" ]; then + echo "Error: Failed to extract VERSION from ClusterServiceVersion manifest" + exit 1 +fiMakefile (1)
65-66: Consider adding defensive directory creation for the cp destination.The
cpcommand assumesdeploy/operator/config/crd/bases/exists. If the directory is missing, the copy will fail silently or produce an unclear error. Addmkdir -pto ensure the destination exists:# copy the crds to the operator bases directory + mkdir -p deploy/operator/config/crd/bases/ cp deploy/helm/jumpstarter/crds/* deploy/operator/config/crd/bases/Alternatively, verify this is a documented project setup requirement and that the directory is always present.

Timestamp: 2025-10-24T11:57:23.796Z
Learning: In the jumpstarter-controller operator (deploy/operator/), the design allows only one Jumpstarter CR per namespace, which will be enforced by a validation webhook. This constraint eliminates concerns about resource name collisions within a namespace.

Timestamp: 2025-10-13T09:05:03.088Z
Learning: In Kubebuilder-generated Kubernetes operators, RBAC manifests (RoleBindings, Roles, etc.) under config/rbac/ typically do not include explicit `metadata.namespace` fields. The namespace is injected at build time by Kustomize via the `namespace` field in config/default/kustomization.yaml (or whichever kustomization file is used). This is intentional design to keep base manifests namespace-agnostic. Do not flag missing namespaces in such RBAC manifests as issues when they are part of a Kustomize-based operator deployment structure.

Learning: In the Jumpstarter operator codebase (deploy/operator/internal/controller/jumpstarter/rbac.go), the Role created by `createRole()` defines RBAC permissions for the managed Jumpstarter controller application, not for the operator itself. The managed controller needs delete permissions on secrets for its runtime operations.

Learning: In the jumpstarter-controller project, migration annotations (jumpstarter.dev/migrated-namespace and jumpstarter.dev/migrated-uid) that override namespace and UID values in authentication tokens are acceptable without additional validation webhooks because the security model assumes only administrators have write access to Exporter and Client resources via K8s RBAC.

5-88: Well-structured sample resources in alm-examples.The four new samples (Client, Exporter, ExporterAccessPolicy, Lease) provide clear examples for users and follow consistent formatting with the existing Jumpstarter sample. The Client sample correctly illustrates OIDC provider integration via
username: "keycloak:user-name-in-keycloak", and the ExporterAccessPolicy sample demonstrates selector-based access control patterns.
99-129: Comprehensive CRD descriptions enhance operator discoverability.The new descriptions for Client, ExporterAccessPolicy, Exporter, and Lease are informative and include relevant documentation links (e.g., Exporter and Lease descriptions reference the Jumpstarter docs). The descriptions will improve user experience in OLM (Operator Lifecycle Manager) catalogs and community marketplaces.
470-478: Verify minKubeVersion 1.28.0 reflects actual project requirements.Two new maintainers have been added (Benny Zlotnik, Bella Khizgiyaev), and
minKubeVersionis now set to1.28.0. Confirm that this version constraint aligns with the minimum supported Kubernetes version across the codebase and CI/CD pipeline. Additionally, verify the base64-encoded SVG icon is valid when decoded (not critical but good practice).

Critical: Typo in image registry organization name.
Line 7 contains a typo in the image repository path: quay.io/jumpstarte-dev/ is missing an 'r' and should be quay.io/jumpstarter-dev/. This will cause image pull failures at deployment time.

In deploy/operator/config/manager/kustomization.yaml around line 7, the newName
image path contains a typo: "quay.io/jumpstarte-dev/jumpstarter-operator" is
missing an 'r' in the organization name; update the value to
"quay.io/jumpstarter-dev/jumpstarter-operator" so the image reference matches
the correct registry organization and prevents image pull failures.

I think the typo in the image may be related to the check-bundele failure.

@bkhizgiy You're absolutely correct! 🎯
The typo is indeed causing the check-bundle failure. Here's what's happening:
- The CI workflow runs
make bundle IMG="quay.io/jumpstarter-dev/jumpstarter-operator:${TAG}"with the correct image name - The bundle generation includes a kustomize command that updates
config/manager/kustomization.yamlwith the provided IMG value - Since the file currently has the typo (
jumpstarte-dev), the regeneration creates it with the correct name (jumpstarter-dev) - This produces a diff between what's committed and what's generated, causing the check to fail with "Uncommitted changes detected"
The fix is to revert the typo back to the correct image name as I suggested in my initial review comment. Once corrected, the check-bundle workflow will pass because there will be no diff between the committed file and the regenerated one.
