Project status about kopf HOT 3 CLOSED

@Lawouach Thanks for your feedback ;-)

The project is fully alive, but still in the proof-of-concept stage (0.x versions). What is missing for the 1.0 release is:

• Tests. A lot of tests. #13 — I would say 80% is done (merged & in my fork).
• Silent spy-handlers (#30) and built-in resources support.
• And some less critical issues from milestone 1.0.

I work hard on that. The framework was published ~20.03.19, the initial estimation was 2 months — by ~20.05.19 (due). But I was quite occupied with other tasks in the past month, so the new estimation of 1.0 is maybe one more month later — by ~30.06.19. If we are lucky, maybe by mid-June.

The roadmap beyond 1.0 release (i.e. coverage and stability) is not defined, any ideas are welcome (e.g. as issues). I guess, I will think of extending Kopf even further: to handle the validations via AdmissionControllers (#55), which requires some internal web-server running for hooks (a new way of interacting with the cluster), and basically all issues not in the milestones yet — to improve the ease of use and to expand to scope of application.

The decision will be done based on the feedback from the early adopters, if any. If you have any specific concerns for the usage of the framework — feel free to share, they will be addressed.

Regarding the long-term, I have really big plans on Kopf to bring the huge & diverse world of Python to the growing world of K8s — K8s ecosystem can benefit from this. But let's not look too far (yet). One step at a time.

Thank you @nolar for the clear and honest answer :)

I think knowing a 1.0 could be released in the next few weeks/months is great by me. It reassures me.
I'll be starting working using kopf more often now and will report as I see problems .

Cheers,

from kopf.

+1 great work!
