  • Add HTTP GET /metrics on the Jumpstarter router (Prometheus/OpenMetrics text) via --metrics-bind-address (or equivalent).
  • Operator wires Router Deployment metrics bind address and container port.
  • Tests assert /metrics returns 200 and parseable exposition; no undocumented jumpstarter_* router series invented in this PR.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The router now supports an optional Prometheus metrics endpoint on port 8080. Build and deployment workflows target the router package. The operator hashes TLS secrets and watches certificate changes to trigger pod rollouts.

Changes

Router metrics and CI wiring

Layer / File(s) Summary
Metrics server implementation
controller/cmd/router/metrics.go, controller/cmd/router/metrics_test.go
Adds an HTTP /metrics endpoint with Prometheus output. Empty and zero addresses disable the endpoint. Tests validate metric families and shutdown behavior.
Router startup integration
controller/cmd/router/main.go
Adds the -metrics-bind-address flag. Starts the metrics server and shuts it down with a five-second timeout.
Deployment and CI build wiring
controller/deploy/operator/internal/controller/jumpstarter/..., controller/Containerfile, controller/Makefile
Configures the router Deployment to bind metrics on :8080. Container and Makefile commands build and run the router package. CI targets build images, deploy the operator, and run end-to-end tests.

TLS-aware deployment reconciliation

Layer / File(s) Summary
TLS secret resolution and hashing
controller/deploy/operator/internal/controller/jumpstarter/jumpstarter_controller.go
Resolves controller and router TLS secrets and computes deterministic SHA-256 hashes with length-prefixed fields.
Deployment annotations and configuration
controller/deploy/operator/internal/controller/jumpstarter/jumpstarter_controller.go
Adds configuration and TLS hashes to controller and router pod annotations while preserving user annotations. Router certificate mounts use shared secret resolution. Generated configuration includes DeprecatedLabels.
TLS secret indexing and watches
controller/deploy/operator/internal/controller/jumpstarter/jumpstarter_controller.go
Indexes and watches JWT CA, controller TLS, and router TLS secrets so certificate changes trigger reconciliation.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to ec9bf

The new router metrics endpoint is wired into the image build, but the current Docker build command excludes the file that implements it, so the router image cannot compile. This release-blocking build failure should be fixed before merge.

Review Summary — PR #933: Router Prometheus /metrics endpoint (JEP-0013 Phase 2)

Overall this is a clean, well-scoped PR. The metrics server implementation is solid with proper timeouts, graceful shutdown, and good test coverage. The previous review feedback from both CodeRabbit and the human reviewer has been addressed.

What looks good

  • Server hardening: ReadHeaderTimeout, ReadTimeout, WriteTimeout, and IdleTimeout are all set with sensible values. The IdleTimeout at 5 minutes is appropriate for Prometheus scrape keepalives.
  • Graceful shutdown: The shutdown function is properly returned from startMetricsServer and called with a timeout on signal. Clean lifecycle management.
  • Disable-by-default: The "0" default for --metrics-bind-address matches the operator's existing convention and keeps backward compatibility.
  • Test quality: Tests cover the happy path, disabled state, and shutdown behavior. The exposition format is validated with a proper Prometheus parser rather than substring heuristics. The jumpstarter_* guard is a nice contract enforcement.
  • Build changes: Switching from cmd/router/main.go to ./cmd/router in the Containerfile and Makefile is necessary now that the package has multiple .go files.

Findings

  1. go.mod indirect marker (minor): prometheus/client_golang is now directly imported but still marked // indirect in controller/go.mod. A go mod tidy should fix this.

  2. No ServiceMonitor for the router (question): The metrics port is exposed in the container spec, but no ServiceMonitor is created. Prometheus won't auto-discover the router's metrics without one. Is this planned for a follow-up?

  3. Default registry exposure (informational): Using promhttp.Handler() with the default gatherer means any future dependency that auto-registers collectors will surface metrics here. The test guards against undocumented jumpstarter_* series, which is good. A dedicated registry could provide stricter isolation if needed later.

  4. RouterService shutdown (pre-existing, not introduced by this PR): The router service context is never cancelled on signal — only the metrics server is cleanly shut down. Noted as a follow-up opportunity.

No blocking issues found. The comments are suggestions and questions for the authors.

looks great, I'd only would run go mod tidy before merging.

RoddieKieley and others added 4 commits August 19, 2026 17:05
- Add HTTP `GET /metrics` on the Jumpstarter router (Prometheus/OpenMetrics text) via `--metrics-bind-address` (or equivalent).
- Operator wires Router Deployment metrics bind address and container port.
- Tests assert `/metrics` returns 200 and parseable exposition; no undocumented `jumpstarter_*` router series invented in this PR.
Bound router metrics HTTP server timeouts, parse /metrics with a Prometheus
exposition parser in tests, and fold the router metrics-bind assertion into
a Ginkgo Describe consistent with sibling operator unit tests.

Return a shutdown callback from the router metrics server and invoke it on
SIGINT/SIGTERM, and log unexpected Serve errors. Timeouts and independent
metric-family assertions were already covered by the CodeRabbit follow-up.
