Also force the LDAP server pod to restart whenever the LDIF file
changes, so whenever you redeploy the tools deployment with a new test
user password the server will be updated.
Unfortunately, Secrets do not seem to have a Generation field, so we
use the ResourceVersion field instead. This means that any change to
the Secret will cause us to retry the connection to the LDAP server,
even if the username and password fields in the Secret were not
changed. Seems like an okay trade-off for this early draft of the
controller compared to a more complex implementation.
This early version of the controller is not intended to act as an
ongoing health check for your upstream LDAP server. It will connect
to the LDAP server to essentially "lint" your configuration once.
It will do it again only when you change your configuration. To account
for transient errors, it will keep trying to connect to the server
until it succeeds once.
This commit does not include looking for changes in the associated bind
user username/password Secret.
- The ldap_upstream_watcher.go controller validates the bind secret and
uses the Conditions to report errors. Shares some condition reporting
logic with its sibling controller oidc_upstream_watcher.go, to the
extent which is convenient without generics in golang.
