Stack

Stack - Core Domain Model

The stack package defines the hierarchical domain model at the heart of Kure. It provides the Cluster, Node, Bundle, and Application abstractions used to describe a complete Kubernetes deployment topology.

Overview

Kure models Kubernetes infrastructure as a four-level hierarchy:

Cluster
  └── Node (tree structure)
        └── Bundle (deployment unit)
              └── Application (workload)

Each level maps to a concept in GitOps deployment:

Key Types

Cluster

The root of the hierarchy, representing a complete cluster configuration.

cluster := stack.NewCluster("production", rootNode)
cluster.SetGitOps(&stack.GitOpsConfig{
    Type: "flux",
})

Node

A tree structure for organizing bundles into logical groups. Nodes can have children (sub-nodes) and a package reference for multi-source deployments.

node := &stack.Node{
    Name:     "infrastructure",
    Children: []*stack.Node{childNode},
    Bundle:   []*stack.Bundle{monitoringBundle},
}

Bundle

A deployment unit corresponding to a single GitOps resource (e.g., a Flux Kustomization). Bundles support dependency ordering via DependsOn.

bundle, err := stack.NewBundle("monitoring", apps, labels)
bundle.DependsOn = []string{"cert-manager"}
bundle.Interval = "10m"

Application

An individual Kubernetes workload. Applications use the ApplicationConfig interface to generate their resources.

app := stack.NewApplication("prometheus", "monitoring", prometheusConfig)
resources, err := app.Generate()

ApplicationConfig Interface

Implement this interface to define how an application generates its Kubernetes resources:

type ApplicationConfig interface {
    Generate(*Application) ([]*client.Object, error)
}

Fluent Builder API

For ergonomic cluster construction, use the fluent builder:

cluster := stack.NewClusterBuilder("production").
    WithNode("infrastructure").
        WithBundle("monitoring").
            WithApplication("prometheus", appConfig).
        End().
    End().
    Build()

Workflow System

The package provides a pluggable workflow abstraction for GitOps tool integration:

// Create a workflow for your GitOps tool
wf, err := stack.NewWorkflow("flux")

// Generate GitOps resources from the cluster definition
objects, err := wf.GenerateFromCluster(cluster)

Supported workflow providers: "flux" / "fluxcd" and "argo" / "argocd".

Source References

Bundles and nodes can reference different source types for multi-source deployments:

node.SetPackageRef(&stack.SourceRef{
    Kind:      "OCIRepository",
    Name:      "my-registry",
    Namespace: "flux-system",
    URL:       "oci://registry.example.com/manifests",
    Tag:       "v1.0.0",
})
