An official Kubernetes sample project demonstrating how to build a controller that watches and reconciles a custom resource type (Foo) defined via a CRD. It shows how to use client-go and code-generator to create typed clients, informers, and listers.

Use cases

  • learn how to write a kubernetes controller
  • example of watching custom resources with client-go
  • how to set up informers and listers for a CRD
  • generate typed clients with kubernetes code-generator
  • build a kube-style controller for a single resource type

When to choose

  • you are learning controller development patterns for Kubernetes
  • you need a reference implementation for a CRD-based controller
  • you want to see how client-go cache/informer machinery fits together

When to avoid

  • you need a production-ready controller framework (use controller-runtime/kubebuilder instead)
  • you want a runnable application rather than example code
  • you need direct contribution - this is a read-only staging mirror
