odo catalog

[serenamarie125]

description to be updated by @kadel

Goal

Users should be able to use odo catalog command to list all operator-backed services. They should be able to filter by name or by category/label

Example

$ odo catalog

to show only databases

odo catalog --category database                                                                                                                      

to show filter items that mention "maria" in name , description, operator or resource filed

odo catalog --search maria

note: the above example output was generated using following kubectl command

``` $ cat template {{- range .items -}} {{ $item := . }} {{ range $item.spec.customresourcedefinitions.owned }} DisplayName: {{.displayName}} Category: {{$item.metadata.annotations.categories}} Description: {{.description}} Operator: {{$item.spec.displayName}} Resource: {{.name}}/{{.version}} {{ end }} {{- end -}} $ kubectl get csv -o go-template-file=template ```

Flags

• --catagory show only operators in a given category (see an example for where category comes from)
• --filter show only operators that have the given phrase in the information that odo is showing (displayName, category, description, operator, resource)
• --namespace display services in a given namespace (and cluster-wide).

Command behavior and error states

• If the command is executed in a directory with odo component (.odo/env.yaml exists and has namespace set). It should use namespace as defined there.
• If the command is executed in a directory that is not odo component it should use the default namespace as set in KUBECONFIG unless --namespace is used.
• It always displays operators that are installed cluster-wide.

@kadel the catalog command was removed in https://github.com/redhat-developer/odo/pull/5577, is the intent to add it back at some point?

Currently not. We removed all logic around creating operator-backed services from odo. TBH, the experience was not what we wanted it to be :-( I don't think that with the current state of the Operator ecosystem, we can make user-friendly CLI interface for installing operator-backed services. At some point, we will probably revisit this, but it is not in our short term list.
