+# hydra-maester
+
+
+This project contains a Kubernetes controller that uses Custom Resources to manage Hydra Oauth2 clients.
+The project is based on [Kubebuilder](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubebuilder)
+
+
+# Design
+
+The controller listens for Custom Resource which defines client registration request. Once Custom resource is created, the controller register oauth2 client in hydra using hydra's REST API.
+Client Id, Client Secret and Identifier of the client in hydra are be stored in the kubernetes as a secret and referenced in the applied CR.
+Reference is used to identify in which kubernetes secret are stored mentioned properties. Secret iscreated in the same namespace of applied CR.
+By default controller should be deployed in the same pod as hydra. Service discovery will come in place in the future.
+
+
+## Synchronization mode
+
+Additionally, controller supports synchronization mode, where it tries to register all clients in hydra.
+Synchronization is an optional mode, enabled via config, which is meant for use cases where hydra is deployed with in memory storage.
+If hydra pod is restarted for some reason then it does not have client in its storage. With synchronization mode the controller makes sure that hydra has up to date clients.
+Synchronization is done by making POST request to hydra with payload describing all client information including clientID,clientSecret and Identifier of last applied client.
+If client exists in hydra storage 409 is returned which is considered as ok and synchronization continues with other clients.
