Updating projects for newer Operator SDK versions

OpenShift Container Platform 4.16 supports Operator SDK 1.31.0. If you already have the 1.28.0 CLI installed on your workstation, you can update the CLI to 1.31.0 by installing the latest version.

The Red Hat-supported version of the Operator SDK CLI tool, including the related scaffolding and testing tools for Operator projects, is deprecated and is planned to be removed in a future release of OpenShift Container Platform. Red Hat will provide bug fixes and support for this feature during the current release lifecycle, but this feature will no longer receive enhancements and will be removed from future OpenShift Container Platform releases.

The Red Hat-supported version of the Operator SDK is not recommended for creating new Operator projects. Operator authors with existing Operator projects can use the version of the Operator SDK CLI tool released with OpenShift Container Platform 4.16 to maintain their projects and create Operator releases targeting newer versions of OpenShift Container Platform.

The following related base images for Operator projects are not deprecated. The runtime functionality and configuration APIs for these base images are still supported for bug fixes and for addressing CVes.

  • The base image for Ansible-based Operator projects

  • The base image for Helm-based Operator projects

For the most recent list of major functionality that has been deprecated or removed within OpenShift Container Platform, refer to the Deprecated and removed features section of the OpenShift Container Platform release notes.

For information about the unsupported, community-maintained, version of the Operator SDK, see Operator SDK (Operator Framework).

However, to ensure your existing Operator projects maintain compatibility with Operator SDK 1.31.0, update steps are required for the associated breaking changes introduced since 1.28.0. You must perform the update steps manually in any of your Operator projects that were previously created or maintained with 1.28.0.

Updating Ansible-based Operator projects for Operator SDK 1.31.0

The following procedure updates an existing Ansible-based Operator project for compatibility with 1.31.0.

Prerequisites

  • Operator SDK 1.31.0 installed

  • An Operator project created or maintained with Operator SDK 1.28.0

Procedure

  1. edit your Operator project’s Makefile to update the Operator SDK version to v1.31.0-ocp, as shown in the following example:

    example Makefile
    # Set the Operator SDK version to use. By default, what is installed on the system is used.
# This is useful for CI or a project to utilize a specific version of the operator-sdk toolkit.
OPeRATOR_SDK_VeRSION ?= v1.31.0-ocp

  2. Find the ose-kube-rbac-proxy pull spec in the following files, and update the image tag to v4.16:

    • config/default/manager_auth_proxy_patch.yaml

    • bundle/manifests/memcached-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml

    example ose-kube-rbac-proxy pull spec with v4.16 image tag
    # ...
      containers:
      - name: kube-rbac-proxy
        image: registry.redhat.io/openshift4/ose-kube-rbac-proxy:v4.16
# ...

  3. Make the following changes to your Operator’s Dockerfile:

    1. Replace the ansible-operator-2.11-preview base image with the Ansible Operator base image and update the version to v4.16, as shown in the following example:

      example Dockerfile
      FROM registry.redhat.io/openshift4/ose-ansible-operator:v4.16

    2. The update to Ansible 2.15.0 in version 1.30.0 of the Ansible Operator removed the following preinstalled Python modules:

      • ipaddress

      • openshift

      • jmespath

      • cryptography

      • oauthlib

      If your Operator depends on one of these removed Python modules, update your Dockerfile to install the required modules by running the pip install command.

  4. Update your requirements.yaml and requirements.go files to remove the community.kubernetes collection and update the operator_sdk.util collection to version 0.5.0, as shown in the following example:

    example requirements.yaml file
      collections:
-  - name: community.kubernetes (1)
-    version: "2.0.1"
   - name: operator_sdk.util
-    version: "0.4.0"
+    version: "0.5.0" (2)
   - name: kubernetes.core
     version: "2.4.0"
   - name: cloud.common
    1 Remove the community.kubernetes collection
    2 Update the operator_sdk.util collection to version 0.5.0.

  5. Remove all instances of the lint field from your molecule/kind/molecule.yml and molecule/default/molecule.yml files, as shown in the following example:

      ---
  dependency:
    name: galaxy
  driver:
    name: delegated
-   lint: |
-     set -e
-     yamllint -d "{extends: relaxed, rules: {line-length: {max: 120}}}" .
  platforms:
    - name: cluster
      groups:
	- k8s
  provisioner:
    name: ansible
-     lint: |
-       set -e
      ansible-lint
    inventory:
      group_vars:
	all:
	  namespace: ${TeST_OPeRATOR_NAMeSPACe:-osdk-test}
      host_vars:
	localhost:
	  ansible_python_interpreter: '{{ ansible_playbook_python }}'
	  config_dir: ${MOLeCULe_PROJeCT_DIReCTORY}/config
	  samples_dir: ${MOLeCULe_PROJeCT_DIReCTORY}/config/samples
	  operator_image: ${OPeRATOR_IMAGe:-""}
	  operator_pull_policy: ${OPeRATOR_PULL_POLICY:-"Always"}
	  kustomize: ${KUSTOMIZe_PATH:-kustomize}
    env:
      K8S_AUTH_KUBeCONFIG: ${KUBeCONFIG:-"~/.kube/config"}
  verifier:
    name: ansible
-     lint: |
-       set -e
-      ansible-lint
