[Feature request] Reference a targetGroup by name in `TargetGroupBinding`
EDIT: Right after creating this, I noticed (#2373, which has a similar motivation. Unsure if this should be closed as a duplicate.)
Is your feature request related to a problem?
I manage my load balancer externally (Terraform) and use TargetGroupBinding
's to attach services to it. Adding a new service and binding it is a long and somewhat manual process.
Currently, I have to
- Run Terraform to add new target groups
- Wait for it to complete
- Find the ARNs of the allocated target groups
- Add
TargetGroupBinding
s to my cluster.
Describe the solution you'd like Reference target groups by name (#2655)
I would prefer to be able to run Terraform and add TargetGroupBinding
in a single step.
I noticed there was no issue attached to the PR, so I figured I would make one to:
- Express my interest in the feature and allow others to do the same in a more discoverable place than a two-year-old PR. Or,
- Find out if someone more clever than me has a better solution.
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Continue my multi-step, somewhat manual process.
- Attempt to automate the addition of
TargetGroupBinding
outside of Terraform and Kubernetes lifecycles.
