Description

Endpoints is a collection of endpoints that implement the actual service. Example:

 Name: "mysvc",
 Subsets: [
   {
     Addresses: [{"ip": "10.10.1.1"}, {"ip": "10.10.2.2"}],
     Ports: [{"name": "a", "port": 8675}, {"name": "b", "port": 309}]
   },
   {
     Addresses: [{"ip": "10.10.3.3"}],
     Ports: [{"name": "a", "port": 93}, {"name": "b", "port": 76}]
   },
]

Specification

Property Type Description

apiVersion

string

APIVersion defines the versioned schema of this representation of an object. Servers should convert recognized schemas to the latest internal value, and may reject unrecognized values. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#resources

kind

string

Kind is a string value representing the REST resource this object represents. Servers may infer this from the endpoint the client submits requests to. Cannot be updated. In CamelCase. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#types-kinds

metadata

ObjectMeta

Standard object’s metadata. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#metadata

subsets

array

The set of all endpoints is the union of all subsets. Addresses are placed into subsets according to the IPs they share. A single address with multiple ports, some of which are ready and some of which are not (because they come from different containers) will result in the address being displayed in different subsets for the different ports. No address will appear in both Addresses and NotReadyAddresses in the same subset. Sets of addresses and ports that comprise a service.

subsets[]

object

EndpointSubset is a group of addresses with a common set of ports. The expanded set of endpoints is the Cartesian product of Addresses x Ports. For example, given:

{ Addresses: [{"ip": "10.10.1.1"}, {"ip": "10.10.2.2"}], Ports: [{"name": "a", "port": 8675}, {"name": "b", "port": 309}] }

The resulting set of endpoints can be viewed as:

a: [ 10.10.1.1:8675, 10.10.2.2:8675 ], b: [ 10.10.1.1:309, 10.10.2.2:309 ]

array

Port numbers available on the related IP addresses.

ports[]

fieldValidation

string

fieldValidation instructs the server on how to handle objects in the request (POST/PUT/PATCH) containing unknown or duplicate fields. Valid values are: - Ignore: This will ignore any unknown fields that are silently dropped from the object, and will ignore all but the last duplicate field that the decoder encounters. This is the default behavior prior to v1.23. - Warn: This will send a warning via the standard warning response header for each unknown field that is dropped from the object, and for each duplicate field that is encountered. The request will still succeed if there are no other errors, and will only persist the last of any duplicate fields. This is the default in v1.23+ - Strict: This will fail the request with a BadRequest error if any unknown fields would be dropped from the object, or if any duplicate fields are present. The error returned from the server will contain all unknown and duplicate fields encountered.
