ReplicaSet

This declares one ReplicaSet to be managed by Orkestra.

Minimal example — static values only:

onCreate:
  replicasets:
    - image: nginx:1.25
      replicas: "3"
      port: "8080"

Full example — dynamic values from the CR:

onCreate:
  replicasets:
    - name: "{{ .metadata.name }}-app"
      image: "{{ .spec.image }}"
      replicas: "{{ .spec.replicas }}"
      port: "{{ .spec.port }}"
      namespace: "{{ .metadata.namespace }}"
      labels:
        - key: app
          value: "{{ .metadata.name }}"
        - key: managed-by
          value: orkestra
      resources:
        requests:
          cpu: 100m
          memory: 128Mi
        limits:
          cpu: 500m
          memory: 512Mi

Lifecycle

Declare this resource under onCreate for an idempotent, one-time create: Orkestra creates it on the first reconcile and leaves it untouched afterward. Set reconcile: true on the same entry to also apply it as drift correction on every subsequent reconcile. This is a shorthand for declaring the identical entry under onReconcile as well — there’s no need to do both.

Declare a resource under onDelete to run explicit cleanup before the CR’s finalizer is removed. Most resources need no onDelete entry — they are garbage-collected automatically through owner references when the CR itself is deleted.

Fields

name

Type: string

Name — ReplicaSet and primary container name. Supports template expressions. Default when omitted: “{{ .metadata.name }}-replicaset”

image

Type: string

Image — container image. Required (must be declared here or resolvable from CR). Static: “nginx:1.25” Dynamic: “{{ .spec.image }}”

imagePullSecrets

Type: list

ImagePullSecrets is an optional list of references to secrets in the same namespace to use for pulling any of the images used by this PodSpec. If specified, these secrets will be passed to individual puller implementations for them to use.

replicas

Type: string

Replicas — number of pod replicas as a string. Static: “3” Dynamic: “{{ .spec.replicas }}” Default: “1”

port

Type: string

Port — primary container port as a string. Static: “8080” Dynamic: “{{ .spec.port }}” Omit to expose no port.

protocol

Type: string

Protocol — network protocol for the container port. Accepted values: TCP (default), UDP, SCTP. Omit to use TCP.

namespace

Type: string

Namespace — target namespace for the ReplicaSet. Default when omitted: “{{ .metadata.namespace }}” (same namespace as the CR).

labels

Type: map

Labels — applied to the ReplicaSet ObjectMeta and the pod template. Label values support template expressions. Orkestra always adds: managed-by=orkestra, orkestra-owner=<cr-name>

annotations

Type: map

Annotations — applied to the ReplicaSet ObjectMeta only. Annotation values support template expressions.

resources

Type: object

Resources — CPU and memory requests/limits for the primary container. Set resources.profile for a named preset, or resources.requests/limits for explicit values. Profile and explicit values are mutually exclusive.

resources:
  profile: burst

env

Type: list

Env — environment variables for the primary container, in Kubernetes-native list format. Each entry has a name and either a value or a valueFrom source. If omitted, no environment variables are added.

env:
  - name: LOG_LEVEL
    value: info
  - name: API_KEY
    valueFrom:
      secretKeyRef:
        name: myapp-secrets
        key: api-key

envFrom

Type: object

EnvFrom — bulk-load environment variables from Secrets and/or ConfigMaps into the primary container, in addition to any individual entries in env. Each secretRef/configMapRef entry names an existing Secret or ConfigMap; every key in it becomes an environment variable.

envFrom:
  secretRef:
    - name: myapp-secrets
  configMapRef:
    - name: myapp-config

nodeSelector

Type: map

NodeSelector is a selector which must be true for the pod to fit on a node. Selector which must match a node’s labels for the pod to be scheduled on that node. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/ +optional +mapType=atomic

serviceAccountName

Type: string

ServiceAccountName is the name of the ServiceAccount to use to run this pod. More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-service-account/ +optional

reconcile

Type: boolean

Reconcile: true — also apply this declaration as drift correction on every reconcile. Equivalent to declaring the same entry under both onCreate and onReconcile. When false (default), only runs on onCreate (idempotent create).

when

Type: list

Conditions (when) — AND semantics.

forEach

Type: object

ForEach declares dynamic expansion over a list field.

autoscale

Type: object

Autoscale declares workload autoscaling behaviour for this ReplicaSet.

anyOf

Type: list

AnyOf holds OR conditions — at least one must pass for this resource.

workingDirectory

Type: string

WorkingDirectory sets the container’s working directory (container.WorkingDir).

probes

Type: object

Probes — startup, liveness, and readiness probe configuration.

securityContext

Type: object

SecurityContext — container-level security settings. Set securityContext.profile for a named preset (baseline, restricted, hardened) or declare individual fields. Profile and explicit fields are mutually exclusive.

podSecurity

Type: object

PodSecurity — pod-level security settings applied to the pod spec. Set podSecurity.profile for a named preset or declare individual fields.

rollingUpdate

Type: object

RollingUpdate — rolling update strategy for this ReplicaSet. Set rollingUpdate.profile for a named preset (safe, fast, blue-green), or declare maxSurge/maxUnavailable explicitly.

volumes

Type: list

Volumes — pod volumes available for mounting into the container.

volumeMounts

Type: list

VolumeMounts — mounts for the primary container.

sleep

Type: string

Sleep injects an artificial delay into the reconcile of this resource. Useful for autoscale testing, latency simulation, and chaos engineering. Accepts extended duration units (s, m, h, d, w, mo, y).
