Terraform-provider-kubernetes: Workloads API support (DaemonSet, Deployment and StatefulSet)

[cemo]

Since Kubernetes 1.9 Workloads API is GA. Supporting them would be unbelievable.

Workloads API GA
We’re excited to announce General Availability (GA) of the apps/v1 Workloads API, which is now
enabled by default. The Apps Workloads API groups the DaemonSet, Deployment, ReplicaSet, and > StatefulSet APIs together to form the foundation for long-running stateless and stateful workloads > in Kubernetes. Note that the Batch Workloads API (Job and CronJob) is not part of this effort and > will have a separate path to GA stability.

PS:

I am not sure why kubernetes provider in the first place has been developed but now I think that it is best and clearest way to configure Kubernetes resources. Configuring and maintaining Helm is tedious and error prone. People are looking for [alternative] ways and I think that Terraform is the best option right now.

Started working on a PR here https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-kubernetes/pull/101

Now that Deployments is merged in is there anyone working on the other resources?

We're currently in need of DaemonSets in order to configure a new AWS based kubernetes cluster with Kube2IAM setup.

See this fork: https://github.com/sl1pm4t/terraform-provider-kubernetes if you need other configurations sooner rather than later. It works well, and is very, very easy to build with docker approach.

@sl1pm4t Do you have plans to package up the work in your fork as P/Rs on this repo? As mentioned here.

[aldoborrero]

I've using @sl1pm4t repository and I have to say that works quite well, so definitely I propose to use his work as a PR for the official provider (otherwise this one is half baked).

This seems to be closed since all resources are implemented.
