Class KubernetesApiDiscovery

java.lang.Object
com.loomcache.server.discovery.KubernetesApiDiscovery
All Implemented Interfaces:
DiscoveryStrategy

public final class KubernetesApiDiscovery extends Object implements DiscoveryStrategy
Kubernetes API-backed peer discovery.

This implementation stays within the existing discovery surface: it talks directly to the Kubernetes API server, discovers peer pod addresses, and periodically refreshes the cached peer list. It does not assume any operator, Helm chart, or external control plane.

    • discoverPeers

      public List<PeerAddress> discoverPeers()
      Description copied from interface: DiscoveryStrategy
      Discover available peers.

      Returns a snapshot of currently known peers. If no peers are available, an empty list is returned (not null). The returned list is mutable and modifications should not affect internal strategy state.

      Specified by:
      discoverPeers in interface DiscoveryStrategy
      Returns:
      list of discovered peer addresses; empty list if none available
    • start

      public void start() throws IOException, GeneralSecurityException
      Description copied from interface: DiscoveryStrategy
      Start the discovery strategy.

      Initializes the discovery mechanism and starts any background threads or I/O operations (e.g., watching files, listening to multicast, resolving DNS). Implementations must handle errors gracefully and should not leave resources in an inconsistent state if startup fails.

      Specified by:
      start in interface DiscoveryStrategy
      Throws:
      IOException
      GeneralSecurityException
    • stop

      public void stop()
      Description copied from interface: DiscoveryStrategy
      Stop the discovery strategy and release resources.

      Cleanly shuts down the discovery mechanism, including stopping any background threads and closing I/O resources. Safe to call multiple times and must be idempotent (calling twice should have no additional effect).

      Specified by:
      stop in interface DiscoveryStrategy
    • getName

      public String getName()
      Description copied from interface: DiscoveryStrategy
      Get the name of this discovery strategy.

      Used for logging, metrics, and debugging purposes.

      Specified by:
      getName in interface DiscoveryStrategy
      Returns:
      human-readable strategy name (e.g., "FileBasedDiscovery", "MulticastDiscovery")
