Blanketops Environments Install

Overview

Blanketops Environments Install provides the declarative installation manifests for BlanketOps Environments.

This repository is install-only. It exists to make installing, upgrading, and removing BlanketOps Environments boring, repeatable, and explicit.

It contains:

• CustomResourceDefinitions (CRDs)
• RBAC definitions
• Controller deployment manifests
• Network and monitoring configuration
• Kustomize overlays

It does not contain:

• Go code
• controllers or reconciliation logic
• CRD source definitions
• image build tooling

Repository Scope & Boundaries

This repository is intentionally limited in scope.

BlanketOps Environments is split into three layers:

blanketops-environments-api
└─ owns CRD schemas and Go types

blanketops-environments-operator
└─ owns controllers and runtime logic

blanketops-environments-install ← this repo
└─ owns installation manifests only

This separation ensures:

• APIs evolve independently
• operators are replaceable
• installs remain stable and auditable

⚠️ CRDs in this repo are artifacts, not sources of truth. They are generated and versioned in the API repository, then vendored here.

Tooling Requirements

End users need:

• kubectl
• access to a Kubernetes cluster

This repository vendors kustomize locally for reproducibility. No Go toolchain is required.

Common Operations

Show available commands

make help

Render manifests (no cluster access required)

make build

Render CRDs only:

make build-crds

Validate against a cluster (server-side dry run)

make validate

This does not persist any resources.

---

Install CRDs

make install

Deploy BlanketOps Environments

make deploy

This applies:

• CRDs
• RBAC
• Controller deployment
• Supporting resources

Show diff against live cluster

make diff

Uninstall

Remove deployed resources:

make undeploy

Remove CRDs:

make uninstall

Generating a Single Install Bundle

To produce a single, consolidated YAML file:

make build-installer

This creates:

dist/install.yaml

Users can then install BlanketOps Environments with:

kubectl apply -f install.yaml

This is useful for:

• Air-gapped environments
• GitOps pipelines
• Release artifacts
• Versioning & Releases

---

Versioning & Releases

• This repository pins CRD versions and operator image tags

• Releases should align with compatible versions of:

  • blanketops-environments-api
  • blanketops-environments-operator

No code is built here — releases are purely manifest updates.
