Struct kube_runtime::events::Event

pub struct Event {
    pub type_: EventType,
    pub reason: String,
    pub note: Option<String>,
    pub action: String,
    pub secondary: Option<ObjectReference>,
}

Minimal event type for publishing through Recorder::publish.

All string fields must be human readable.

Fields

type_: EventType

The event severity.

Shows up in kubectl describe as Type.

reason: String

The short reason explaining why the action was taken.

This must be at most 128 characters, generally in PascalCase. Shows up in kubectl describe as Reason.

note: Option<String>

A optional description of the status of the action.

This must be at most 1kB in size. Shows up in kubectl describe as Message.

action: String

The action that was taken (either successfully or unsuccessfully) against main object

This must be at most 128 characters. It does not currently show up in kubectl describe. A common convention is a short identifier of the action that caused the outcome described in reason. Usually denoted in PascalCase.

secondary: Option<ObjectReference>

Optional secondary object related to the main object

Some events are emitted for actions that affect multiple objects. secondary can be populated to capture this detail.

For example: the event concerns a Deployment and it affects the current ReplicaSet underneath it. You would therefore populate events using the object reference of the ReplicaSet.

Set secondary to None, instead, if the event affects only the object whose reference you passed to Recorder::new.

Naming note

secondary is mapped to related in Events API.
