In order to start our migration to SSA, I am suggesting to generate applyconfigurations using the upstream
applyconfiguration-gen
from https://github.com/kubernetes/code-generator. This tool is a bit user-unfriendly IMO, so a few tweaks to our Go-code is required to make this happen.I have long been waiting for kubernetes-sigs/controller-tools#818 to land, but it seems to take "forever", and there are too many benefits from migrating to SSA to wait any longer. If/when this feature becomes available in controller-gen we can migrate to use it.
Since the generated applyconfigurations are initially going to be used by internal controllers, I suggest to put them in an internal package for now. We can consider making them public later on.
