Handle two Modules owning the same resource

[petar-cvit]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Each Module will create its own set of resources. When two Modules create the same resource, one of the Modules will report that it has all the resources it should have, while the other one will just say it's empty and that it misses the resource.

Describe the solution you'd like
If a new Module is created and it wants to create a resource that is already owned by another Module, it should report on the UI that there is a clash in resources. I wouldn't go with overriding other Modules resource ownership

Additional context
Resource ownership is defined on each resource with the label cyclops.module. For example, Module demo created a Deployment app, and the app Deployment will have the label cyclops.module: demo

I can work on this issue

Thanks @hanshal101!

Hey, @petar-cvit, so my approach over here is to make a checkpoint before creating a module to check the resource already exists or not. If true, then return error; otherwise, pass.

What you think of this? Also, I'm having a hard time finding the Create Logic for Modules, the last code I reached was 😅:

cyclops/cyclops-ctrl/api/v1alpha1/client/modules.go

Lines 53 to 65 in f7f3691

	func (c *moduleClient) Create(project *cyclopsv1alpha1.Module) (*cyclopsv1alpha1.Module, error) {
	result := cyclopsv1alpha1.Module{}
	err := c.restClient.
	Post().
	Namespace(c.ns).
	Resource("modules").
	Body(project).
	Do(context.Background()).
	Into(&result)
	return &result, err
	}

Hey @hanshal101. K8s API will take care of duplicate Modules, so we don't have to worry about that. The problem is that two Modules can try the create the "same" object.

For example:

• Module A creates a Deployment called example
• Module B want to create the same Deployment example and overrides the cyclops.module label and takes over the Deployment

You will need to find a mechanism to track shared ownership of resources when creating/updating children resources

[hanshal101]

Okay correct me if I am wrong so before creating any module, we need to make sure the current deployment
label: cyclops.module=example should check if any existing deployment has the same label , if yes the stop and return err.

[petar-cvit]

Yes, so each time you want to create new resources from a Module, you have to check their cyclops.module label. If it's set to something else then the Module name, you should report an error
