+# API server internals
+
+- Understanding the internals of the API server is useful.red[¹]:
+
+  - when extending the Kubernetes API server (CRDs, webhooks...)
+
+  - when running Kubernetes at scale
+
+- Let's dive into a bit of code!
+
+.footnote[.red[¹]And by *useful*, we mean *strongly recommended or else...*]
+
+---
+
+## The main handler
+
+- The API server parses its configuration, and builds a `GenericAPIServer`
+
+- ... which contains an `APIServerHandler` ([src](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/server/handler.go#L37
+))
+
+- ... which contains a couple of `http.Handler` fields
+
+- Requests go through:
+
+  - `FullhandlerChain` (a series of HTTP filters, see next slide)
+
+  - `Director` (switches the request to `GoRestfulContainer` or `NonGoRestfulMux`)
+
+- `GoRestfulContainer`  is for "normal" APIs; integrates nicely with OpenAPI
+
+- `NonGoRestfulMux` is for everything else (e.g. proxy, delegation)
+
+---
+
+## The chain of handlers
+
+- API requests go through a complex chain of filters ([src](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/server/config.go#L671))
+
+  (note when reading that code: requests start at the bottom and go up)
+
+- This is where authentication, authorization, and admission happen
+
+  (as well as a few other things!)
+
+- Let's review an arbitrary selection of some of these handlers!
+
+*In the following slides, the handlers are in chronological order.*
+
+*Note: handlers are nested; so they can act at the beginning and end of a request.*
+
+---
+
+## `WithPanicRecovery`
+
+- Reminder about Go: there is no exception handling in Go; instead:
+
+  - functions typically return a composite `(SomeType, error)` type
+
+  - when things go really bad, the code can call `panic()`
+
+  - `panic()` can be caught with `recover()`
+    <br/>
+    (but this is almost never used like an exception handler!)
+
+- The API server code is not supposed to `panic()`
+
+- But just in case, we have that handler to prevent (some) crashes
+
+---
+
+## `WithRequestInfo` ([src](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/request/requestinfo.go#L163))
+
+
+- Parse out essential information:
+
+  API group, version, namespace, resource, subresource, verb ...
+
+- WithRequestInfo: parse out API group+version, Namespace, resource, subresource ...
+
+- Maps HTTP verbs (GET, PUT, ...) to Kubernetes verbs (list, get, watch, ...)
+
+---
+
+class: extra-details
+
+## HTTP verb mapping
+
+- POST → create
+
+- PUT → update
+
+- PATCH → patch
+
+- DELETE
+  <br/> → delete (if a resource name is specified)
+  <br/> → deletecollection (otherwise)
+
+- GET, HEAD
+  <br/> → get (if a resource name is specified)
+  <br/> → list (otherwise)
+  <br/> → watch (if the `?watch=true` option is specified)
+
+---
+
+## `WithWaitGroup`, 
+
+- When we shutdown, tells clients (with in-flight requests) to retry
+
+  - only for "short" requests
+
+  - for long running requests, the client needs to do more
+
+- Long running requests include `watch` verb, `proxy` sub-resource
+
+(See also `WithTimeoutForNonLongRunningRequests`)
+
+---
+
+## AuthN and AuthZ
+
+- `WithAuthentication`:
+  the request goes through a *chain* of authenticators
+  ([src](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/filters/authentication.go#L38))
+
+- WithAudit
+
+- WithImpersonation: used for e.g. `kubectl ... --as another.user`
+
+- WithPriorityAndFairness or WithMaxInFlightLimit
+
+  (`system:masters` can bypass these)
+
+- WithAuthorization
+
+---
+
+## After all these handlers ...
+
+- We get to the "director" mentioned above
+
+- Api Groups get installed into the "gorestfulhandler"
+  ([src](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/server/genericapiserver.go#L423))
+
+- REST-ish resources are managed by various handlers
+  (in [this directory](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/))
+
+- These files show us the code path for each type of request
+
+---
+
+class: extra-details
+
+## Request code path
+
+- [create.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/create.go):
+  decode to HubGroupVersion; admission; mutating admission; store
+
+- [delete.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/delete.go):
+  validating admission only; deletion
+
+- [get.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/get.go) (get, list):
+  directly fetch from rest storage abstraction
+
+- [patch.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/patch.go):
+  admission; mutating admission; patch
+
+- [update.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/update.go):
+  decode to HubGroupVersion; admission; mutating admission; store
+
+- [watch.go](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiserver/blob/release-1.19/pkg/endpoints/handlers/watch.go):
+  similar to get.go, but with watch logic
+
+(HubGroupVersion = in-memory, "canonical" version.)
