From Kubernetes CRD to Go import

Question

Imagine you want to get kind/struct called KubeadmControlPlane from the kubernetes API server.

This means you need to import the related struct into your code.

A matching import statement for KubeadmControlPlane would be:

kubeadm "sigs.k8s.io/cluster-api/controlplane/kubeadm/api/v1beta1"

Up to now I need to much time to find a matching import statement.

I use vscode.

How do you get from the CRD kind to an import statement?

Are the names of the all CRD kinds and their related structs, same ? – Insatiate

@BrokenArmor please elaborate your question. I don't understand it. – Kentigera

Answer 1

Not all Kubernetes CRDs were generated using Go tools, and as such, there may not always be things to import.

If you are unable to find matching type in a repo somewhere, you can use client-go/dynamic to get the values you need.
