# Kubernetes Management

This document describes the Kubernetes Management UI — a Lens Desktop v5-equivalent Kubernetes management experience built into the Troubleshooting and RCA Assistant.

---

## Overview

The Kubernetes Management UI provides full feature parity with Lens Desktop v5.x (the last open-source release), delivering a complete cluster management IDE directly inside the application. The implementation is MIT-licensed and uses the bundled `kubectl` binary for all cluster operations.

**Current version: v1.1.0**

## Page Layout

The Kubernetes page uses a Lens-style shell layout:

## Backend Architecture

All Kubernetes operations use the bundled `kubectl` binary (v1.30.0) via `tokio::process::Command`. No direct Kubernetes API client library is used — this approach avoids TLS certificate management complexity and works with any cluster configuration.

### State

```rust
pub struct AppState {
    pub clusters: Arc<TokioMutex<HashMap<String, ClusterClient>>>,
    pub port_forwards: Arc<TokioMutex<HashMap<String, PortForwardSession>>>,
    pub watchers: Arc<Mutex<HashMap<String, WatcherHandle>>>,
    // ...
}
```

Clusters are stored in-memory only (not persisted). Kubeconfigs are stored encrypted in the database and written to temporary files at command execution time.

### Security

- **Input validation**: `validate_resource_name()` enforces Kubernetes DNS subdomain rules and prevents command injection
- **Temp file cleanup**: `TempFileCleanup` guard auto-deletes kubeconfig temp files on scope exit
- **No credential logging**: kubeconfig content never appears in audit logs
- **Three-tier command safety**: shell commands additionally classified by `classifier.rs` (Tier 1 auto, Tier 2 approval, Tier 3 deny)

### Commands (48 total)

#### Cluster Management (5)
- `add_cluster`, `remove_cluster`, `list_clusters`, `test_cluster_connection`, `discover_pods`

#### Port Forwarding (5)
- `start_port_forward`, `stop_port_forward`, `list_port_forwards`, `delete_port_forward`, `shutdown_port_forwards`

#### Resource Discovery (26)
- `list_namespaces`, `list_pods`, `list_services`, `list_deployments`, `list_statefulsets`, `list_daemonsets`
- `list_replicasets`, `list_jobs`, `list_cronjobs`
- `list_configmaps`, `list_secrets`, `list_nodes`, `list_events`
- `list_ingresses`, `list_persistentvolumeclaims`, `list_persistentvolumes`
- `list_serviceaccounts`, `list_roles`, `list_clusterroles`, `list_rolebindings`, `list_clusterrolebindings`
- `list_horizontalpodautoscalers`
- `list_storageclasses`, `list_networkpolicies`, `list_resourcequotas`, `list_limitranges` *(v1.1.0)*

#### Resource Management (8)
- `get_pod_logs`, `scale_deployment`, `restart_deployment`, `delete_resource`, `exec_pod`
- `cordon_node`, `uncordon_node`, `drain_node`

#### YAML Operations (2)
- `create_resource`, `edit_resource`

#### Rollback (1)
- `rollback_deployment`

#### Event Subscription (3)
- `subscribe_to_k8s_events`, `subscribe_to_all_k8s_events`, `unsubscribe_from_k8s_events`

## Frontend State Management

Store: `src/stores/kubernetesStore.ts` (Zustand, not persisted)

| State | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| `selectedClusterId` | Active cluster (drives namespace/resource loading) |
| `selectedNamespace` | Active namespace filter |
| `clusters`, `contexts` | Cluster metadata |
| `namespaces` | Cached namespace list per cluster |
| `loadedResources` | Set of resource types currently loaded |
| `terminalSessions` | Active xterm.js terminal sessions |
| `globalSearchQuery` | Cross-resource search state |
| `bulkSelection` | Multi-resource selection per type |

---

## Key Files

| Path | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `src/pages/Kubernetes/KubernetesPage.tsx` | Lens-like page shell (sidebar + hotbar + content) |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/ResourceBrowser.tsx` | Legacy resource browser (5 types) |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/ClusterOverview.tsx` | Live cluster summary |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/Terminal.tsx` | xterm.js pod exec terminal |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/YamlEditor.tsx` | Monaco YAML editor |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/MetricsChart.tsx` | recharts metrics visualization |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/RbacViewer.tsx` | Live RBAC resource viewer |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/RbacEditor.tsx` | RBAC create/edit via YAML |
| `src/components/Kubernetes/CommandPalette.tsx` | Ctrl+K command palette |

| `src-tauri/src/commands/kube.rs` | All 48 Kubernetes Tauri commands |
| `src-tauri/src/kube/` | Client, port forward, watcher, refresh modules |

---

## Dependencies

### Frontend (npm)
| Package | Version | Purpose |
|---------|---------|---------|
| `xterm` | 5.x | Terminal emulator |
| `xterm-addon-fit` | 0.8.x | Auto-resize |
| `xterm-addon-web-links` | 0.9.x | Clickable URLs |
| `@monaco-editor/react` | 4.x | YAML editor |
| `recharts` | 2.x | Metrics charts |

### Backend (Cargo)
No external Kubernetes client libraries. Uses `tokio::process::Command` + bundled kubectl binary.

## Known Limitations

1. **Metrics**: CPU/memory charts show placeholder data — requires metrics-server integration (future work)
2. **Real-time updates**: Watcher backend exists but frontend integration is polling-based; true watch streams pending
3. **Helm**: Not yet integrated (planned for v1.2.0)
4. **StorageClasses**: Cluster-scoped, no namespace filter
5. **Node metrics**: Cordon/drain requires cluster admin privileges
