Renaming a Controller

[ilangofman]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Currently, I am working on the Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus (AMP) controller. Right now, the name of the controller is prometheusservice-controller. I was wondering if it would be possible to rename a controller repository to something more fitting such as amp-controller.

Describe the solution you'd like

I understand right now that the name comes from the aws-sdk-go library. Which the controller imports are based on. Would there be any way to separate the controller name from the sdk import path?

Sorry but all of our tooling and documentation lines up with the current naming scheme. I opened a PR a while ago clarifying what each service uses as their identifiers and where they are used in ACK. It would be a pretty monumental effort for us to refactor this, even just for a single repository.

Already released controller cannot be renamed, however, current code-generator supports renaming the controller name/module which is permissible if the controller didn't receive a an official release. /close
