## 🔧 **Core Components Deep Dive**

### **1. DevOpsProject Controller** 🏗️

**What it does:** The **orchestrator-in-chief** that creates your entire DevOps ecosystem.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.on.create(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, kind=consts.DEVOPS_PROJECT_KIND)
def on_devops_proj_created(name: str, namespace: Optional[str], body: Body, logger: Logger, **kwargs):
    # When you create a DevOpsProject CR, this triggers:
    # 1. Validates your Git repo and container registry config
    # 2. Creates ArgoSetting CR (for ArgoCD management)
    # 3. Creates JenkinsSetting CR (for CI/CD pipelines)
    # 4. Creates ContainerRegistry CR (for image management)
    # 5. Creates GitCredentials CR (for authentication)
```

**Your Actual Flow:**
```
User creates DevOpsProject CR
    ↓
Reconciler validates Git repo + container registry
    ↓
Creates ArgoSetting CR (manages ArgoCD projects/apps)
    ↓
Creates JenkinsSetting CR (manages CI/CD pipelines)
    ↓
Creates ContainerRegistry CR (manages Docker images)
    ↓
Creates GitCredentials CR (manages authentication)
    ↓
Your DevOps ecosystem is ready! 🎉
```

### **2. ArgoSetting Controller** 🚀

**What it does:** Manages your **ArgoCD infrastructure** - projects, repositories, and applications.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
# When ArgoSetting CR is created:
for project in as_spec.projects:
    # Creates ArgoCD Project
    desired_resources.append(ManagedResource(
        resource_type="project",
        resource_id=project.name,
        description=project.desc,
        metadata={
            "source_repos": [repo.url for repo in as_spec.repositories],
            "destinations": [{"server": dest.server, "namespace": dest.namespace}]
        }
    ))

for app in as_spec.applications:
    # Creates ArgoCD Application
    desired_resources.append(ManagedResource(
        resource_type="application",
        resource_id=app.name,
        metadata={
            "project": app.project,
            "repo_url": app.source.repo_url,
            "path": app.source.path,
            "target_revision": app.source.revision
        }
    ))
```

**Your Actual ArgoCD Management:**
```
ArgoSetting CR created
    ↓
Reconciler connects to ArgoCD API (argo.mathmast.com)
    ↓
Creates ArgoCD Project (defines permissions, repos, destinations)
    ↓
Creates ArgoCD Repository (connects to your Git repo)
    ↓
Creates ArgoCD Application (deploys your app)
    ↓
ArgoCD starts syncing your application! 🔄
```

### **3. JenkinsSetting Controller** ⚙️

**What it does:** Manages your **Jenkins CI/CD pipelines** - creates folders, pipelines, and credentials.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.timer(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, kind=consts.JENKINS_SETTINGS_KIND, interval=300)
def poll_project_config(name: str, namespace: str, body: Body, logger: logging.Logger, **kwargs):
    # Every 5 minutes, the reconciler:
    # 1. Fetches your project's YAML config from Git
    # 2. Generates Jenkins Pipeline DSL
    # 3. Creates/updates Jenkins pipelines
    # 4. Manages pipeline credentials
```

**Your Actual Jenkins Management:**
```
JenkinsSetting CR created
    ↓
Reconciler clones your Git repo
    ↓
Reads your project's YAML configuration
    ↓
Generates Jenkins Pipeline DSL (Groovy script)
    ↓
Creates Jenkins folder structure (project/environment)
    ↓
Creates Jenkins pipeline with your DSL
    ↓
Your CI/CD pipeline is ready! 🚀
```

### **4. DeploymentRecord Controller** 🎯

**What it does:** Orchestrates **actual deployments** - triggers Jenkins builds, monitors ArgoCD sync, manages TTL.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
@kopf.on.create(group=consts.GROUP, version=consts.VERSION, plural=consts.DEPLOYMENT_RECORD_PLURAL)
async def create_deployment_record(spec: Dict[str, Any], name: str, namespace: str, uid: str, logger: Logger, **kwargs):
    # When you trigger a deployment:
    # 1. Validates deployment request
    # 2. Triggers Jenkins build
    # 3. Monitors build progress
    # 4. Triggers ArgoCD sync
    # 5. Monitors deployment status
    # 6. Manages TTL (Time To Live)
```

**Your Actual Deployment Flow:**
```
User clicks "Deploy" button
    ↓
DeploymentRecord CR created
    ↓
Reconciler triggers Jenkins build
    ↓
Monitors build phases (building, testing, packaging)
    ↓
Triggers ArgoCD sync when build completes
    ↓
Monitors ArgoCD sync status
    ↓
Creates IngressResource for external access
    ↓
Deployment is live! 🌐
```

### **5. IngressResource Controller** 🌐

**What it does:** Manages **external access** - DNS records, SSL certificates, and ingress rules.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
async def create_ingress_resource(self, body: Body, name: str, namespace: str, **kwargs):
    # When IngressResource CR is created:
    # 1. Creates DNS record via GoDaddy API
    # 2. Requests SSL certificate via cert-manager
    # 3. Creates Kubernetes Ingress
    # 4. Updates deployment URL
    # 5. Sends heartbeat with live URL
```

**Your Actual Ingress Management:**
```
IngressResource CR created
    ↓
Reconciler calls GoDaddy API
    ↓
Creates DNS record (app.mathmast.com → 4.155.160.32)
    ↓
Requests SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt
    ↓
Creates Kubernetes Ingress rule
    ↓
Your app is accessible at https://app.mathmast.com! 🔒
```

---

## 📡 **Messaging & Event System**

### **RabbitMQ Integration** 🐰

Your reconciler uses **RabbitMQ** for asynchronous communication and event-driven architecture.

**Event Types:**
```python
class EventType(Enum):
    DEVOPS_INITIALIZE = "DevOpsInitialize"      # New project setup
    DEVOPS_RECONCILE = "DevOpsReconcile"        # Deployment trigger
    DEVOPS_RECONCILE_HEARTBEAT = "DevOpsReconcileJobHeartbeat"  # Progress updates
```

**Real Event Flow:**
```
User triggers deployment
    ↓
DevOpsReconcileEvent sent to RabbitMQ
    ↓
Reconciler picks up event
    ↓
Creates DeploymentRecord CR
    ↓
Sends heartbeat every 30 seconds
    ↓
User sees real-time progress! 📊
```

### **Heartbeat System** 💓

**What it does:** Provides **real-time deployment status** to your users.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
@dataclass
class DevOpsReconcileJobHeartbeatEvent:
    operation: str = "heartbeat"
    id: str = ""  # deployment ID
    status: str = "running"  # running/success/failed/terminated
    phase: str = "initializing"  # current deployment phase
    phase_message: str = ""  # human-readable message
    url: Optional[str] = None  # live URL when deployment completes
```

**Your Actual Heartbeat Flow:**
```
Deployment starts
    ↓
Heartbeat every 30 seconds:
    - Phase: "initializing" → "building" → "deploying" → "verifying"
    - Status: "running" → "success"
    - URL: None → "https://app.mathmast.com"
    ↓
User sees live progress in UI! 📈
```

---

## 🕒 **TTL (Time To Live) Management**

### **Automatic Cleanup** 🧹

Your reconciler includes **sophisticated TTL management** for temporary deployments.

**Real Code Example:**
```python
@dataclass
class TTLMonitoringState:
    deployment_record_name: str
    enabled: bool
    ttl_seconds: int  # Default: 3 hours (10800 seconds)
    start_time: datetime
    expiration_time: datetime
    phase: TTLMonitoringPhase  # monitoring/cleanup/completed
```

**Your Actual TTL Flow:**
```
Deployment completes
    ↓
TTL monitoring starts (3 hours by default)
    ↓
Every minute: Check if TTL expired
    ↓
When expired: Trigger cleanup
    ↓
Delete ArgoCD applications
    ↓
Delete Kubernetes resources
    ↓
Delete DNS records
    ↓
Delete SSL certificates
    ↓
Environment cleaned up! 🧹
```
