You said something about main?

But first, remember how we said we’d come back to main.go again? Let’s take a look and see what’s changed, and what we need to add.

Imports
package main

import (
	"crypto/tls"
	"flag"
	"os"

	// Import all Kubernetes client auth plugins (e.g. Azure, GCP, OIDC, etc.)
	// to ensure that exec-entrypoint and run can make use of them.
	_ "k8s.io/client-go/plugin/pkg/client/auth"

	"k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime"
	utilruntime "k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/util/runtime"
	clientgoscheme "k8s.io/client-go/kubernetes/scheme"
	ctrl "sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime"
	"sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime/pkg/healthz"

	batchv1 "tutorial.kubebuilder.io/project/api/v1"
	"tutorial.kubebuilder.io/project/internal/controller"
	//+kubebuilder:scaffold:imports
)

The first difference to notice is that kubebuilder has added the new API group’s package (batchv1) to our scheme. This means that we can use those objects in our controller.

If we would be using any other CRD we would have to add their scheme the same way. Builtin types such as Job have their scheme added by clientgoscheme.

var (
	scheme   = runtime.NewScheme()
	setupLog = ctrl.Log.WithName("setup")
)

func init() {
	utilruntime.Must(clientgoscheme.AddToScheme(scheme))

	utilruntime.Must(batchv1.AddToScheme(scheme))
	//+kubebuilder:scaffold:scheme
}

The other thing that’s changed is that kubebuilder has added a block calling our CronJob controller’s SetupWithManager method.

	var enableLeaderElection bool

	flag.BoolVar(&enableLeaderElection, "leader-elect", false,
		"Enable leader election for controller manager. "+
			"Enabling this will ensure there is only one active controller manager.")
	flag.BoolVar(&secureMetrics, "metrics-secure", false,

	flag.BoolVar(&enableHTTP2, "enable-http2", false,
		"If set, HTTP/2 will be enabled for the metrics and webhook servers")

		Development: true,
	}
	opts.BindFlags(flag.CommandLine)
	flag.Parse()

	ctrl.SetLogger(zap.New(zap.UseFlagOptions(&opts)))

	// if the enable-http2 flag is false (the default), http/2 should be disabled

		c.NextProtos = []string{"http/1.1"}

	})
	if err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to start manager")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	if err = (&controller.CronJobReconciler{
		Client: mgr.GetClient(),
		Scheme: mgr.GetScheme(),
	}).SetupWithManager(mgr); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to create controller", "controller", "CronJob")
		os.Exit(1)
	}

We’ll also set up webhooks for our type, which we’ll talk about next. We just need to add them to the manager. Since we might want to run the webhooks separately, or not run them when testing our controller locally, we’ll put them behind an environment variable.

We’ll just make sure to set ENABLE_WEBHOOKS=false when we run locally.

	if os.Getenv("ENABLE_WEBHOOKS") != "false" {
		if err = (&batchv1.CronJob{}).SetupWebhookWithManager(mgr); err != nil {
			setupLog.Error(err, "unable to create webhook", "webhook", "CronJob")
			os.Exit(1)
		}
	}
	//+kubebuilder:scaffold:builder

	if err := mgr.AddHealthzCheck("healthz", healthz.Ping); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to set up health check")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	if err := mgr.AddReadyzCheck("readyz", healthz.Ping); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "unable to set up ready check")
		os.Exit(1)
	}

	setupLog.Info("starting manager")
	if err := mgr.Start(ctrl.SetupSignalHandler()); err != nil {
		setupLog.Error(err, "problem running manager")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
}

Now we can implement our controller.
