if this is also generating Deployment --> RS --> POD --> etc ?

[mohakhan03uk]

Detect if the resource is a Deployment (kind: Deployment).

Inside that case,

Deployment
└── ReplicaSet
└── Pod(s)
├── InitContainers
├── Containers
├── Volumes
├── ConfigMaps
└── PVCs

         create these in output image

Hi @mohakhan03uk. Could you please specify the expected visual rendering in terms of clusters, nodes and edges? Could you provide a hand-drawn diagram?

[mohakhan03uk]

thanks for your reply.
Something like below:

Current Code generate like this:

[philippemerle]

I put this suggestion in my TODO list. As this should require a lot of works, this feature would not be available soon. I will need to restructure some parts of the current KubeDiagrams code in order to have this feature integrated seamlessly. Any contribution is welcome.

[mohakhan03uk]

thanks Philip :-)
I will try my best to do something.
I am not good in python but will try.

[philippemerle]

@mohakhan03uk I developed a first POC. When applied on examples/wordpress, this generates the following diagram:

What do you think about this diagram?

[mohakhan03uk]

Looks beautiful !
I also manged to do get below, but for sure your is good!

[philippemerle]

@mohakhan03uk I will create a new example to store the result of this discussion. I propose the inside-pod name for this new example as it will illustrate how KubeDiagrams could show the internal architecture of pods, i.e., containers (including init ones) and volumes. What do you think about this?

Could you share the icons for containers you use in your previous diagram?

Could you point out some public examples (or your own examples if possible) on which we could apply the inside-pod configuration?

[mohakhan03uk]

inside-deployment may be little better?

Icons , they are not same as originals one, not with transparent BG:

@mohakhan03uk

inside-deployment may be little better?

perhaps inside-workloads? as we could also show the internal architecture of any Job, CronJob, StatefulSet, or DaemonSet.

Icons , they are not same as originals one, not with transparent BG:

Right I will create a new icon from the Kubernetes Icons Set. I am not in favour to distinguish Container and InitContainer icons as they are both containers.

Thank you for this example.

[mohakhan03uk]

inside-workloads is better!
Sure Phillipe , if someone needed some specific icon they can override.

@mohakhan03uk Following is the current generated diagram for your demo1 example

It is a mess around mount volume edges as the example contains a lot of volumes mounted by containers.

For a more realistic example like WordPress, the diagram is more simpler

Perhaps some edge labels could be removed as they don't give new information such as uses ConfigMap, uses Secret, and uses PVC. In these cases, the edges are self-informative. Perhaps mounts Volume labels could be removed also. has Container and has InitContainer labels are informative but could be replaced by initContainers and containers clusters containing the respective containers.

What do you think about this?

[philippemerle]

@mohakhan03uk Following generated diagram illustrates the removal of some edge labels and the introduction of some clusters

What do you think about this?

[mohakhan03uk]

This one is too good,
can have different colour for different dotted box also edges? For clear grouping and tracking?

[philippemerle]

This is possible to set any graphical attributes. Following is an example:

Then the more difficult is to choice the appropriate colors ;)

[philippemerle]

@mohakhan03uk I committed this feature in https://github.com/philippemerle/KubeDiagrams/tree/main/examples/inside-workloads.

[philippemerle]

@mohakhan03uk Any feedback on this feature? Does anything to update/add?

[mohakhan03uk]

it is looking good!
the kdc files is doing some magic ... I want to understand in little detailed.
Do you have any doc to refer how this whole mechanism is working and designed ?
you can take this change as example and explain all all changes you did.

[philippemerle]

Hi @mohakhan03uk,

it is looking good!

Great news.

the kdc files is doing some magic ...

yes kdc files are a large part of the magic of KubeDiagrams ;-)

I want to understand in little detailed.

Do you have any doc to refer how this whole mechanism is working and designed ?

Unfortunately, this is not currently documented.

you can take this change as example and explain all all changes you did

Yes, I must do it asap.

[mohakhan03uk]

Hi,
Finding time to look into it.
Will come back.
