Mutate object in DELETE operation
AmirRezaSobhdel opened this issue · comments
I have set a finalizer to my resource and this resource will not be deleted before its finalizer is removed in my operator's reconciler.
(I am not using jspolicy controller, Im using go-operator-SDK for this purpose).
For UPDATE and CREATE operations Im using a jspolicy mutation to add request.userInfo.username to the annotations in metadata.
I am then using this annotation in my operator reconciler.
*** But for DELETE operation its not possible to mutate the object. The resource is still not deleted because it has a finalizer set to it.
I want to achieve the same functionality for the delete operation. am I missing something? can you add mutate support for DELETE operation?
@AmirRezaSobhdel thanks for creating this issue! Since DELETE does not modify the object besides setting the metadata.deletionTimestamp, this won't work with a mutating webhook according to my knowledge.
An alternative is to have a jspolicy controller that watches for deleted objects that have a certain finalizer and then remove those finalizers automatically.
@AmirRezaSobhdel did you get to try out the controller solution Fabian suggested above?
