Purpose

Support passing per-trigger container arguments through the /trigger API for CronJob release bindings.

Approach

  1. Updated openapi/openchoreo-api.yaml with CronJobTriggerRequest and optional request body on the trigger endpoint.
  2. Regenerated OpenAPI server/client bindings (make openapi-codegen) and mockery mocks (make mockery-gen).
  3. Added TriggerEmptyBodyMiddleware for backward-compatible handling of body-less and empty-body requests.
  4. Updated TriggerCronJob service and buildJobFromCronJob with deep-copied Job template specs to safely override primary container arguments without mutating source CronJob maps.
  5. Added comprehensive builder, handler, and HTTP router tests covering all override semantics, error handling, and spec conformance.

Adds per-trigger container argument overrides to the CronJob release-binding /trigger API.

API surface

  • Adds the optional CronJobTriggerRequest JSON body.
  • Adds optional args overrides for the primary container.
  • Preserves body-less and empty-body requests through middleware.
  • Updates generated OpenAPI clients and mocks.
  • No CRD changes.
  • Compatibility risk: Low. Existing clients can omit the body.

Implementation

  • Forwards trigger arguments from the HTTP handler to TriggerCronJob.
  • Deep-copies the CronJob job template before applying overrides.
  • Replaces only the primary container arguments.
  • Preserves container commands and sidecar containers.
  • Supports inherited, replaced, cleared, and special-character arguments.
  • Validates missing or malformed container structures.
  • Prevents mutation of the source job template.

Tests

Added or updated tests cover:

  • Body-less and empty JSON trigger requests.
  • Populated and empty argument arrays.
  • Malformed JSON with 400 Bad Request.
  • OpenAPI response conformance.
  • Handler argument forwarding.
  • Forbidden, validation, conflict, not-found, and internal service errors.
  • Argument inheritance and replacement.
  • Command and sidecar preservation.
  • Invalid container structures.
  • Input immutability.

Critical paths without new dedicated tests include authorization behavior beyond existing service error mapping, RBAC enforcement, and deployment or upgrade integration paths.

Risk hotspots

  • Authn/authz: The authorization check remains in the service layer. The new argument field passes through that path and needs continued authorization coverage.
  • RBAC: No RBAC changes are included.
  • Secrets: No secret handling changes are included.
  • Reconciliation loops: No reconciliation logic changes are included.
  • Install/upgrade paths: No installation or upgrade changes are included.

Walkthrough

Changes

CronJob trigger arguments

Layer / File(s) Summary
API contract and request handling
openapi/openchoreo-api.yaml, internal/openchoreo-api/api/handlers/..., internal/occ/resources/client/mocks/...
The trigger endpoint now accepts optional args. Empty bodies become {}. The handler forwards arguments and returns 400 for malformed or unreadable bodies.
Service propagation and Job construction
internal/openchoreo-api/services/k8sresources/...
Optional arguments pass through authorization and trigger processing. Job construction deep-copies and validates the template, then replaces arguments only on the primary container. Tests cover overrides, validation, sidecars, and immutability.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 3ec85

The PR adds optional per-trigger CronJob arguments while preserving body-less requests and includes focused coverage for the new behavior. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains; the only noted follow-up is a minor readability refactor.

Explanation

The implementation addresses issue #4570 by adding an optional trigger request body, forwarding per-trigger arguments, overriding the primary container arguments, preserving existing behavior, and adding relevant tests. Full verification of generated API bindings is not possible because internal/openchoreo-api/api/gen/client.gen.go, models.gen.go, and server.gen.go were excluded by the !/gen/ and !internal/openchoreo-api/api/gen/** path filters.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 20.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 15 functions across 9 files. (2 skipped: 1 unsupported, 1 too large.)

Extract the args-override block into a helper function.

buildJobFromCronJob now combines deep-copy, name/uid validation, and four levels of nested type assertions for the args override in one function. This is flagged as high complexity by static analysis. Extract the args-override logic into a small helper to keep the function readable and testable in isolation.
