## Writing Controllers

The `controllers` package offers a variety of helpers for writing controllers.
These operate in a similar manner as [`controller-runtime`](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime) but are *far* smaller and less abstract.

With a few exceptions, Istio controllers typically are split in two phases: construction and running.

### Controllers overview

Below provides a high level overview of controllers in Istiod. For more information about each controller, consulting the controllers Go docs is recommended.

  // controller refers to the name of the controller that should handle this
  // class. This allows for different "flavors" that are controlled by the
  // same controller. For example, you may have different parameters for the
  // same implementing controller. This should be specified as a
  // domain-prefixed path no more than 250 characters in length, e.g.

- The `horizontalpodautoscaling` and `clusterrole-aggregation` controllers now assume the `autoscaling/v1` and `rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1` APIs are available. If you disable those APIs and do not want to run those controllers, exclude them by passing `--controllers=-horizontalpodautoscaling` or `--controllers=-clusterrole-aggregation` to `kube-controller-manager`.
