State Tracking

How PHP K8s tracks resource synchronization state.

Resource States

Resources track two states:

• Synced (isSynced()) - Resource has been synced with cluster
• Exists (exists()) - Resource currently exists in cluster

Lifecycle

$pod = K8s::pod($cluster)->setName('test');

$pod->isSynced();  // false - not yet created
$pod->exists();    // false - doesn't exist

$pod->create();

$pod->isSynced();  // true - synced with cluster
$pod->exists();    // true - exists in cluster

$pod->delete();

$pod->exists();    // false - no longer exists

Use Cases

• Idempotency - Use createOrUpdate() for safe repeated operations
• Validation - Check state before operations
• Cleanup - Verify deletion success
