test(e2e): add AST-based scan to verify _operator ACL covers all operator commands - #392
Conversation
…ator commands Add internal/aclscan, a package that statically discovers the Valkey commands the operator's reconciliation code issues by scanning cmd/ and internal/ for valkey-go client calls (builder-pattern and Arbitrary()). Builder method names are resolved to command tokens by parsing valkey-go's own generated command builders on disk, so the mapping tracks whichever valkey-go version the operator is built against instead of being hand-maintained. Wire this into the e2e suite: a new test step in valkeycluster_test.go runs ACL DRYRUN against the "_operator" system user for every discovered command, padding each with the right number of placeholder arguments (via COMMAND INFO arity lookups) so wrong-arity replies don't get mistaken for permission denials. This catches the ACL in internal/controller/users.go silently drifting from the commands the code actually runs. Also add hack/aclscan, a small CLI for manually listing the commands aclscan discovers. Signed-off-by: Tim Karger <tkarger@users.noreply.github.com>

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Restrict Arbitrary detection to a B() receiver.
Line 212 accepts every method named Arbitrary. An unrelated call such as formatter.Arbitrary("X") becomes a discovered Valkey command. The e2e check can then fail or require an unnecessary ACL permission. Require isBuilderCall(sel.X) before collecting literal tokens. Add a regression test for a non-builder Arbitrary call.
Proposed fix
if sel.Sel.Name == "Arbitrary" {
- if tok := stringLiteralArgs(call.Args); tok != nil {
- commands = append(commands, Command{Tokens: tok, Pos: pos})
+ if isBuilderCall(sel.X) {
+ if tok := stringLiteralArgs(call.Args); tok != nil {
+ commands = append(commands, Command{Tokens: tok, Pos: pos})
+ }
}
return true

Do not pass the Secret value in logged command arguments.
Line 691 puts defaultPassword in valkey-cli -a. utils.Run logs the complete command argument list to GinkgoWriter, so every COMMAND INFO and ACL DRYRUN call exposes the decoded Kubernetes Secret in e2e and CI logs. Preserve explicit cmd.Env in utils.Run, then pass this value through VALKEYCLI_AUTH instead of -a.

Thanks for taking a look! I have some comments on this.
Some extra things to note:
- Can you add documentation on this to docs/developer-guide.md?
- It would be great to get this hooked into the CI pipeline too so that it can advise when an ACL is missing

Can you add a guard if there is no args available?
func stringLiteralArgs(args []ast.Expr) []string {
if len(args) == 0 {

ACL only needs the command and subcommand (if present), and not the arguments. Instead of requiring every arg to be a literal, we can take the leading literals and error if there aren't any:
if sel.Sel.Name == "Arbitrary" {
tok := leadingStringLiterals(call.Args) // literals up to the first non-literal, capped at 2
if len(tok) == 0 {
scanErr = fmt.Errorf("%s: Arbitrary call whose command is not a string literal; aclscan cannot resolve it", pos)
return false
}
commands = append(commands, Command{Tokens: tok, Pos: pos})
return true
}This would then resolve Arbitrary("CLUSTER", "SETSLOT", strconv.Itoa(slot)) as CLUSTER SETSLOT, which would resolve to the commandName cluster|setslot.

While isBuilderCall would match inline x.B().Method(), it does not match b := client.B(); b.Method().
Perhaps we can error if the b := client.B() is being used (and any other unmatched usage), so that we can track and add support for it if needed.
Since it is part of the e2e test it should be hooked in the CI pipeline. Do you mean as a dedicated check? |

Summary
Adds an AST-based scan that discovers every Valkey command the operator's reconciliation code issues, and wires it into the e2e suite so the _operator system user's ACL is verified against the live cluster via ACL DRYRUN instead of being checked by hand.
Features / Behaviour Changes
internal/aclscanpackage: statically scanscmd/andinternal/for valkey-go client calls (client.B().Xxx()...Build()builder chains and rawArbitrary(...)calls) and returns the set of Valkey commands the operator can issue.test/e2e/valkeycluster_test.go) that runsACL DRYRUN _operator <command>for every command aclscan discovers against a live cluster, and fails if any command is denied — catching drift between the_operatorACL ininternal/controller/users.goand what the code actually does.hack/aclscanCLI for manually listing the commands aclscan discovers (go run ./hack/aclscan), useful when updating the_operatorACL by hand.Implementation
internal/aclscan/aclscan.go: resolves valkey-go builder method names (e.g.ClusterSetConfigEpoch) to their literal command tokens (e.g.CLUSTER SET-CONFIG-EPOCH) by parsing valkey-go's own generated command builders on disk viago/ast/go/parser, rather than hand-maintaining the mapping — so it stays correct across valkey-go version bumps.Arbitrary(...)calls are matched separately since they forward a caller-supplied slice rather than a static literal.test/e2e/acl_dryrun_helper_test.go: helper that runsCOMMAND INFOonce for all discovered commands to look up each one's arity, then pads each command with the right number of placeholder arguments (e.g. CLUSTER SET-CONFIG-EPOCH x) before callingACL DRYRUN, so a "wrong number of arguments" reply isn't misread as a permission denial. Falls back to incrementally growing the padding (up tomaxAclDryRunPlaceholders) for any command whose arity couldn't be resolved up front._operatoruser's permissions intest/e2e/valkeycluster_test.go, reusing its cluster/pod setup.internal/aclscan/aclscan.go'sisBuilderEntryPoint/firstAppendLiterals/isBuilderCallare the core of the AST matching and are the parts most worth double-checking against valkey-go's actual generated code shape.Limitations
Arbitrary); a valkey-go call issued through some other pattern would silently not be picked up. This mirrors how the operator currently issues all of its commands, but is a blind spot if that changes.TestOperatorCommandsininternal/aclscan/aclscan_test.gopins the current command list; it needs a one-line update whenever the operator starts issuing a new command (intentional — it's meant to force a conscious ACL review, as noted in the test's doc comment).Testing
