Developing Operators with the Kubernetes Operator Pythonic Framework (kopf)
Talkat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2019 · on Wednesday, 2019-11-20· at 16:25· Hall D - San Diego Convention Center·
summary
Kopf is a Python operator framework that claims you can implement an operator in three lines of code and run it locally with kopf run file.py. It provides async watch streams, adopts child resources with labels, keeps track of last handled state and diffs, retries exceptions with timeouts and records errors as Kubernetes events. Zalando uses it across hundreds of teams and many clusters; cross-cluster job execution is implemented as a working proof‑of‑concept, while admission hooks remain on the backlog.
