Contains breaking API change on api.Status#Details (type change)
Turn Details from string -> StatusDetails - a general
bucket for keyed error behavior. Define an open enumeration
ReasonType exposed as Reason on the status object to provide
machine readable subcategorization beyond HTTP Status Code. Define
a human readable field Message which is common convention (previously
this was joined into Details).
Precedence order: HTTP Status Code, Reason, Details. apiserver would
impose restraints on the ReasonTypes defined by the main apiobject,
and ensure their use is consistent.
There are four long term scenarios this change supports:
1. Allow a client access to a machine readable field that can be
easily switched on for improving or translating the generic
server Message.
2. Return a 404 when a composite operation on multiple resources
fails with enough data so that a client can distinguish which
item does not exist. E.g. resource Parent and resource Child,
POST /parents/1/children to create a new Child, but /parents/1
is deleted. POST returns 404, ReasonTypeNotFound, and
Details.ID = "1", Details.Kind = "parent"
3. Allow a client to receive validation data that is keyed by
attribute for building user facing UIs around field submission.
Validation is usually expressed as map[string][]string, but
that type is less appropriate for many other uses.
4. Allow specific API errors to return more granular failure status
for specific operations. An example might be a minion proxy,
where the operation that failed may be both proxying OR the
minion itself. In this case a reason may be defined "proxy_failed"
corresponding to 502, where the Details field may be extended
to contain a nested error object.
At this time only ID and Kind are exposed
This change adds additional test coverage for the kubecfg
command. There is now a test for the case when the auth info
file does not exist. LoadAuthInfo tests have been refactored
to use table testing.
Check for 1 path segment on create/list, 2 on update/delete, and
allow any number of path segments on get (for now).
Also pretty prints the list of actual types that are supported for
create/update, which today corresponds to the list of types that
are supported period.
This patch completes a TODO item for the kubecfg package test suite by
removing the expectNoError helper function, which does not reduce enough
typing to justify its usage.
