// Package runtime includes helper functions for working with API objects
// that follow the kubernetes API object conventions, which are:
//
// 0. Your API objects have a common metadata struct member, TypeMeta.

//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 1. Your code refers to an internal set of API objects.
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 2. In a separate package, you have an external set of API objects.
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 3. The external set is considered to be versioned, and no breaking
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
// changes are ever made to it (fields may be added but not changed
// or removed).
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 4. As your api evolves, you'll make an additional versioned package
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
// with every major change.
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 5. Versioned packages have conversion functions which convert to
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
// and from the internal version.
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 6. You'll continue to support older versions according to your
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
// deprecation policy, and you can easily provide a program/library
// to update old versions into new versions because of 5.
//
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
// 7. All of your serializations and deserializations are handled in a
2020-05-04 14:59:48 +00:00
// centralized place.
2018-09-05 20:46:10 +00:00
//
// Package runtime provides a conversion helper to make 5 easy, and the
// Encode/Decode/DecodeInto trio to accomplish 7. You can also register
// additional "codecs" which use a version of your choice. It's
// recommended that you register your types with runtime in your
// package's init function.
//
// As a bonus, a few common types useful from all api objects and versions
// are provided in types.go.
