KUBERNETES_TIMER_DELAY¶
- gafaelfawr.constants.KUBERNETES_TIMER_DELAY = 5¶
How long (in seconds) to delay timers after startup and changes.
Gafaelfawr uses a Kopf timer to periodically re-check service tokens stored in secrets and regenerate them if needed. This timer can conflict with the update handler if changes were made to the
GafaelfawrServiceToken
object while the operator was not running. Wait this long after startup and after any detected change to the object before processing it with the timer to try to avoid that conflict.This could be longer for production operation, but the test suite needs to wait for at least this long to test timer operation, so this is a compromise.
