🤖 agent

Sidecar agent for MariaDB that co-operates with mariadb-operator. Remotely manage Galera via HTTP instead of configuration *.cnf files.

• HTTP API to manage Galera and expose the MariaDB state to mariadb-operator
• Query and update Galera state without mounting /var/lib/mysql/grastate.dat
• Perform Galera cluster recovery remotely
• Bootstrap new Galera cluster as a result of the cluster recovery
• Idiomatic Go HTTP client pkg/client
• Authentication using Kubernetes service accounts via TokenReview API
