cloud-provider
This repository defines the cloud-provider interface and mechanism to initialize a cloud-provider implementation into Kubernetes. Currently multiple processes use this code although the intent is that it will eventually only be cloud controller manager.
Note: go-get or vendor this package as k8s.io/cloud-provider
.
Purpose
This library is a shared dependency for processes which need to be able to integrate with cloud-provider specific functionality.
Compatibility
Cloud Providers are expected to keep the HEAD of their implementations in sync with the HEAD of this repository.
Where does it come from?
cloud-provider
is synced from
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/staging/src/k8s.io/cloud-provider.
Code changes are made in that location, merged into k8s.io/kubernetes and
later synced here.
Things you should NOT do
- Add an cloud provider specific code to this repo.
- Directly modify anything under vendor/k8s.io/cloud-provider in this repo. Those are driven from
k8s.io/kubernetes/staging/src/k8s.io/cloud-provider
. - Make interface changes without first discussing them with sig-cloudprovider.
