MintMaker

MintMaker is designed to automate the process of checking and updating dependencies for components in Konflux. It utilizes https://docs.renovatebot.com/, a dependency update tool.

Description

MintMaker introduces the DependencyUpdateCheck custom resource, which acts as a trigger for the dependency update process. When a DependencyUpdateCheck CR is created, MintMaker springs into action, examining all components within Konflux for dependency updates.

Konflux components originate from repositories on two types of platforms, GitHub and GitLab. MintMaker adapts its functionality based on the platform:

• GitHub: If the repository has Konflux's Pipeline as Code GitHub Application installed, MintMaker utilizes the token generated from the application to run Renovate.
• GitLab: MintMaker scans the component's namespace for a secret containing the Renovate token. Upon finding the token, MintMaker employs it to execute Renovate for components within the same namespace.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

make docker-build docker-push IMG=<some-registry>/mintmaker:tag

NOTE: This image ought to be published in the personal registry you specified. And it is required to have access to pull the image from the working environment. Make sure you have the proper permission to the registry if the above commands don’t work.

Install the CRDs into the cluster:

Deploy the Manager to the cluster with the image specified by IMG:

make deploy IMG=<some-registry>/mintmaker:tag

NOTE: If you encounter RBAC errors, you may need to grant yourself cluster-admin privileges or be logged in as admin.

Create instances of your solution You can apply the samples (examples) from the config/sample:

kubectl apply -k config/samples/

NOTE: Ensure that the samples has default values to test it out.

To Uninstall

Delete the instances (CRs) from the cluster:

kubectl delete -k config/samples/

Delete the APIs(CRDs) from the cluster:

make uninstall

UnDeploy the controller from the cluster:

make undeploy
