On behalf of the Fabric8 team and everyone who has contributed, I'm happy to announce that the Fabric8 Kubernetes Client 6.6.0 has been released and is now available from Maven Central 🎉.

Thanks to all of you who have contributed with issue reports, pull requests, feedback, and spreading the word with blogs, videos, comments, and so on. We really appreciate your help, keep it up!

What's new?

Without further ado, let's have a look at the most significant updates:

  • Improved HTTP client logging experience
  • Support for raw, arbitrary HTTP calls to the cluster
  • General performance improvements
  • 🐛 Many other bug fixes and minor improvements

You can find the full changelog for this version in our GitHub release page.

Improved HTTP client logging experience

Until now, logging of HTTP requests and responses was done using the okhttp3.logging.HttpLoggingInterceptor. The main problem with this approach is that it was only supported for use with the default OkHTTP HttpClient implementation. In addition, there were some issues when logging streaming requests such as those used to perform an S2I build.

In this release, we include a new HTTP logging interceptor that works consistently across all HttpClient implementations. The easiest way to use it is by providing an Slf4J logger implementation and configure a trace log level. For example, if you can use the SimpleLogger implementation:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
  <version>${slf4j.version}</version>
</dependency>

And then configure the trace log level (globally):

-Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.defaultLogLevel=trace

Or specific to the io.fabric8.kubernetes.client.http package:

-Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.log.io.fabric8.kubernetes.client.http.HttpLoggingInterceptor=trace

Using this release

If your project is based on Maven, you just need to add the Fabric8 Kubernetes Client to your Maven dependencies:

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.fabric8</groupId>
  <artifactId>kubernetes-client</artifactId>
  <version>6.6.0</version>
</dependency>

If your project is based on Gradle, you just need to add the Fabric8 Kubernetes Client to your Gradle dependencies:

dependencies {
  api "io.fabric8:kubernetes-client:6.6.0"
}

Once your project is ready, you can create a new instance of the client to perform operations. In the following code snippet, I show you how to instantiate the client and retrieve a list of Pods:

try (KubernetesClient client = new KubernetesClientBuilder().build()) {
  client.pods().list().getItems().forEach(p -> System.out.println(p.getMetadata().getName()));
}

How can you help?

If you're interested in helping out and are a first-time contributor, check out the "good first issue" tag in the issue repository. We've tagged extremely easy issues so that you can get started contributing to Open Source.

We're also excited to read articles and posts mentioning our project and sharing the user experience. Giving a star to the project, and spreading the word in general, helps us reach more users and broaden the feedback. Feedback is the only way to improve.
