Summary

  • Replace hand-rolled logger with log/slog: The new implementation uses a custom slog.Handler that preserves roxie's CLI output style (elapsed MM:SS timestamps, per-level coloring, stdout/stderr routing) while delegating level filtering, concurrency safety, and message dispatch to the standard library.
  • Eliminate *logger.Logger parameter threading: Logger is now a package-level singleton (logger.Default()) with top-level functions (logger.Info, logger.Debug, etc.). This removes verbose and logger fields from Deployer and every other struct that carried them, and drops the logger parameter from ~30 function signatures across all packages.
  • Replace if verbose guards with Debug/Debugf: Verbose-only output previously required callers to check if d.verbose { d.logger.Dim(...) }. Now callers just call logger.Debug(...) — level filtering happens inside slog. This collapses dozens of 3-line if-blocks into single calls.
  • Add DebugMultilineYaml: Absorbs the removed helpers.LogMultilineYaml utility into the logger, with a built-in verbose guard so callers never need to check.
  • Verbose flag handled via PersistentPreRunE: Cobra root command sets logger.SetVerbose() once; individual commands no longer wire it through.

Test plan

  • make test — unit tests pass
  • make check — fmt, vet, lint clean
  • Manual: roxie deploy on a Kind cluster — verify output format unchanged (timestamps, colors, levels)
  • Manual: roxie deploy --verbose — verify debug lines appear
  • Manual: roxie teardown — verify teardown logs look correct

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Logging is now managed consistently across deployment, teardown, cluster setup, and image and chart operations.
    • Verbose mode controls additional diagnostic output, while debug messages are available for troubleshooting.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request replaces injected logger instances with a package-level default logger across command and internal APIs. It adds slog-based logging with verbose debug output. Helm operations now accept contexts directly and pass them through retry and action flows.

Changes

Logging and Context API Migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Default logger and logging handler
internal/logger/*
Adds a replaceable process-wide default logger, package-level logging functions, verbose and debug methods, and a synchronized slog handler with configurable output writers.
Logger-free helper and runtime APIs
internal/containerrt/*, internal/dockerauth/*, internal/env/*, internal/helpers/*, internal/imagecache/*, internal/k8s/*, internal/manifest/*, internal/ocihelper/*, internal/portforward/*
Removes logger parameters and stored logger fields from supporting APIs. Updates associated tests to call the revised signatures.
Context-based Helm operations
internal/helm/*, tests/e2e/*
Helm lifecycle functions now accept contexts and pass them through actions and retry waits. Integration and end-to-end helpers pass contexts directly.
Deployer and add-on logging
internal/deployer/*
Replaces deployer and add-on logger configuration with package-level logging. Removes Deployer.SetVerbose and AddOnConfig; deployment and teardown control flow remains in place.
Command and test wiring
cmd/*
Updates command handlers to call logger-free APIs. The root command applies the verbose flag to the package logger before command execution. Deployment configuration diagnostics use debug logging.

Change: Refactor

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b0d2c

The logging migration mostly preserves existing behavior. A stalled Helm uninstall or list request may not stop when the operation is cancelled. Verbose SecuredCluster output is also formatted inconsistently, with a timestamp on its first line only. Both are bounded follow-ups rather than likely deployment failures.

elapsed timestamp, matching the Central CR logging path.

Review comments at @internal/helm/helm.go:
- Line 230: Update newActionConfig and the doUninstall and doListByPrefix call
paths so active Kubernetes requests honor the caller’s context or a
context-derived request timeout; cancellation must stop in-flight requests, not
only be checked between retries.

Review comments at @internal/logger/default.go:
- Line 16: Update SetDefault to reject a nil logger or substitute a usable
logger before storing it in std, so package-level log calls cannot dereference
nil; preserve its existing return behavior for non-nil loggers.

…tation

Rewrite the logger on top of log/slog with a custom Handler that
preserves the existing MM:SS-prefixed, color-coded CLI output.

New capabilities over the old implementation:
- Debug/Debugf (visible only in verbose mode)
- LogMultilineYaml (debug-level YAML dump, no-op when not verbose)
- SetVerbose / IsVerbose on the instance
- Leveled output via slog.Level (LevelDim, LevelSuccess as custom levels)
- Errors routed to stderr, everything else to stdout

Add default.go with an atomic global singleton (mirrors slog.SetDefault
pattern) and package-level forwarding functions so callers can use
logger.Info(...) without threading a *Logger through every call site.

…ilineYaml

HelmCtx carried a context, a logger, and a verbose flag. With the
logger now a package-level singleton and verbose mode queryable via
log.IsVerbose() / log.Debug, HelmCtx collapses to plain context.Context.

helpers.LogMultilineYaml is superseded by logger.DebugMultilineYaml which
uses Debug level (auto-suppressed when not verbose).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove the `verbose bool` and `logger *logger.Logger` fields from:
- Deployer
- AddOnConfig
- helmAddOn
- imagePreloader / kindImagePreloader / minikubeImagePreloader /
  customImagePreloader

These are replaced by the package-level logger singleton. Constructor
signatures are updated accordingly: New() no longer takes a logger,
and AddOnConfig becomes an empty struct (retained as an extension point).

Also replaces all `d.logger.X()` / `if d.verbose` call sites within
these files with `log.X()` / `log.Debug()`.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mechanical change: every function that accepted a *logger.Logger
parameter now uses the package-level log.X() calls instead.

Affected packages: k8s, containerrt, ocihelper, manifest, helpers,
imagecache, dockerauth, portforward, env, and the remaining deployer
call sites (operator, crs, deploy_via_operator, kubectl).

The logger import is aliased as "log" throughout.

…mmands

- Add PersistentPreRunE on rootCmd to call log.SetVerbose(verbose) once,
  replacing per-command SetVerbose calls and d.SetVerbose(verbose).
- Remove globalLogger and per-command logger.New() instances.
- Update deploy, teardown, shell, subshell, env, config to use
  package-level log.X() calls.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove *logger.Logger arguments from test helper calls and constructor
invocations. Tests that need isolated logger output use
logger.NewWithWriters + logger.SetDefault.
