[LFX Fall '23 Mentorship]: Extend use-case of detecting deprecated Kubernetes API usage

Closed this issue · 14 comments

jwmatthews commented

This is a LFX mentorship project intended to run in Fall 2023

Description

We are looking for help on extending a use-case of detecting usage of deprecated and removed Kubernetes APIs in applications. We need help in creating analysis rules that work with our static code analyzer, help to create automated tests to ensure this functionality is working as expected, and documentation to share with the community on how to leverage Konveyor for this scenario.

This work will involve

  • determining what API resources have been deprecated or removed in each version of Kubernetes
  • building Analyzer LSP Rules to be contributed to our Rulesets repository
  • curation or development of sample applications in Golang, Java, and YAML to aid test scenarios
  • creation of a new test to be integrated into Konveyor's CI
  • documentation to show a guided walkthrough of this capability

You can see the beginning of this use-case being addressed with a sample rule in this demo of analyzer-lsp.

The development environment is based on Golang and Kubernetes. A minikube instance will work well for local development on Linux or Mac systems.

Note: https://github.com/rikatz/kubepug may help for seeing how they determine what APIs are deprecated

Hey,
I'm really interested in this project and I plan to apply as a Mentee once LFX Fall applications are open.
Also, I'm curious to know if there are any beginner-friendly issues available for me to start contributing and get to know more about Konveyor.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

I am Vishal Raj, a final year CSE student. The CNCF - Konveyor project to extend the use-case of detecting deprecated Kubernetes API usage excites me. I'm eager to contribute to this mentorship project by creating analysis rules, developing automated tests, and providing documentation for leveraging Konveyor to detect deprecated and removed Kubernetes APIs. Building Analyzer LSP Rules and curating sample applications will be my focus. Let's collaborate to enhance Konveyor and support the Kubernetes community with valuable tools and resources!

Note: https://github.com/devtron-labs/silver-surfer may help or at least knowing how they approach problem could be useful.

Thank you @savitharaghunathan for this suggestion
