## Rationale
There are many comparable solutions for creating c4k deployments like `helm` or `kustomize`.
`kustomize` is great to manage your k8s manifests by splitting huge files into handy parts.
`helm` is great because of its large community.
Why do we need another one? Why do you continue the reading here?
We combine the simplicity of `kustomize` with the ability to do real programming like software developers would do.
Following the principle
"Use programming language for programming"
we clearly enjoy writing Kubernetes manifests with Clojure. In comparison to helms templating, things such as business logic, conventions, input validation, versions, dependencies and reuse are much easier and much more reliable to implement with c4k.
By the way, c4k means "convention for kubernetes".

#### Target Cli and Web Frontend
Set up your cli as follows
```clojure
(defn -main [& cmd-args]
(uberjar/main-common
"c4k-forgejo" ;; name of your app
core/config? ;; schema for config validation
core/auth? ;; schema for credential validation
core/config-defaults ;; want to set default values?
core/k8s-objects ;; the function generate the k8s manifest
cmd-args ;; command line arguments given
))
```
The full example can be found here: https://repo.prod.meissa.de/meissa/c4k-forgejo/src/branch/main/src/main/clj/dda/c4k_forgejo/uberjar.clj
You can create your manifest as web-application also (using page local js without server interaction)
```html
<html>
<head>
<link href="bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="c4k-content"></div>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
```

and: https://repo.prod.meissa.de/meissa/c4k-forgejo/src/branch/main/src/main/cljs/dda/c4k_forgejo/browser.cljs
#### Separate Configuration from Credentials
We think it is an good idea to have credentials separated from configuration. All our functions, cli and frontend are following this principle. Thus, for executing separated config and authentication infos have to be provided.
```bash
c4k-common config.edn auth.edn > k8s-manifest.yaml
```
#### Input as EDN or Yaml
c4k-common supports yaml and edn as format for all of its resources (input and output).
Hence, the following command line will also work:
```bash
c4k-common config.yaml auth.yaml > k8s-manifest.yaml
```
#### Inline k8s resources for versioning & dependencies
We inline all resources used in our libraries & applications. You can generate k8s manifests everywhere without additional external dependencies.
In case of
* java: Resources are included in the jar-file out of the box (see https://repo.prod.meissa.de/meissa/c4k-forgejo/src/branch/main/project.clj#L13).
* js: With a slim macro call we inline resources to the resulting js file (see https://repo.prod.meissa.de/meissa/c4k-forgejo/src/branch/main/src/main/cljc/dda/c4k_forgejo/forgejo.cljc#L72-L74)
* native: On native builds we also inline resources (see https://repo.prod.meissa.de/meissa/c4k-forgejo/src/branch/main/build.py#L126)
#### Work on structured Data instead of flat templating
To keep things simple, we also do templating. But we convert given k8s resources to structured data.
This allows us to have more control and do unit tests:
k8s-resource:
```yaml
apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1
kind: Middleware
metadata:
name: ratelimit
spec:
rateLimit:
average: AVG
burst: BRS
```
Replace values:
```clojure
(defn-spec generate-rate-limit-middleware pred/map-or-seq?
[config rate-limit-config?]
(let [{:keys [max-rate max-concurrent-requests]} config]
(->
(yaml/load-as-edn "forgejo/middleware-ratelimit.yaml")
(cm/replace-key-value :average max-rate)
(cm/replace-key-value :burst max-concurrent-requests))))
```
Have a unit-test:
```clojure
(deftest should-generate-middleware-ratelimit
(is (= {:apiVersion "traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1",
:kind "Middleware",
:metadata {:name "ratelimit"},
:spec {:rateLimit {:average 10, :burst 5}}}
(cut/generate-rate-limit-middleware {:max-rate 10, :max-concurrent-requests 5}))))
```
#### Validate your inputs
Have you recognized the `defn-spec` macro above? We use allover validation, e.g.
```clojure
(def rate-limit-config? (s/keys :req-un [::max-rate
::max-concurrent-requests]))
(defn-spec generate-rate-limit-middleware pred/map-or-seq?
[config rate-limit-config?]
...)
```
#### Namespaces
We support namespaces for ingress & postgres (monitoring lives in it's own namespace `monitoring`).
```clojure
(deftest should-generate-simple-ingress
(is (= [{:apiVersion "v1"
:kind "Namespace"
:metadata {:name "myapp"}}]
(cut/generate {:namespace "myapp"}))))
```
#### Ingress
In most cases we use `generate-ingress-and-cert` which generates an ingress in combination with letsencrypt cert for a named service.
```clojure
(deftest should-generate-ingress-and-cert
(is (= [{:apiVersion "cert-manager.io/v1",
...}
{:apiVersion "networking.k8s.io/v1",
:kind "Ingress",
...
:spec
{:tls [{:hosts ["test.jit.si"], :secretName "web"}],
:rules
[{:host "test.jit.si",
:http {:paths [{:path "/",
:pathType "Prefix",
:backend
{:service {:name "web",
:port {:number 80}}}}]}}]}}]
(cut/generate-ingress-and-cert {:fqdns ["test.jit.si"]
:service-name "web"
:service-port 80}))))
```
#### Postgres Database
If your application needs a database, we often use postgres:
```clojure
(deftest should-generate-deployment
(is (= [{:image "postgres:16"
:name "postgresql"
:env
[{:name "POSTGRES_USER" ...}
{:name "POSTGRES_PASSWORD" ...}
{:name "POSTGRES_DB" ...}]
:volumeMounts [{:name "postgre-data-volume" ...}]}]
(get-in (cut/generate-deployment
{:postgres-image "postgres:16"})
[:spec :template :spec :containers]))))
```
We optimized our db installation to run between 2Gb anf 16Gb Ram usage.
#### Monitoring with Grafana Cloud
With minimal config of
```clojure
(def conf
{:k3s-cluster-name "your-cluster-name"
:k3s-cluster-stage :prod
:grafana-cloud-url "your-url"})
(def auth
{:grafana-cloud-user "user"
:grafana-cloud-password "password"})
(monitoring/generate conf auth)
```
You can connect your application to grafana cloud.
