Feat: Make RayCluster head node ingress optional

[fg91]

Why are the changes needed?

Currently, the flytepropeller ray plugin hardcodes the creation of an ingress for the ray cluster's head node, see here.

This is a potential security problem as the ray head node might be exposed to the public internet in clusters with a default ingress class without the user knowing.

What changes were proposed in this pull request?

• Add field EnableIngress to the ray plugin config
• Disable the creation of the ingress by default.

How was this patch tested?

• Added a unit test.

Check all the applicable boxes

• I updated the documentation accordingly.
• All new and existing tests passed.
• All commits are signed-off.

nit: I think we can put EnableIngress: & cfg.EnableIngress directly in HeadGroupSpec, as it's the only place that use this

[fg91]

We could but the ServiceType - which is also part of the RayCluster's HeadGroupSpec - is also in our top level plugin config. My preference would be to try to keep it consistent here at least?

This is not a strong opinion though.

@fg91 I think the flyteplugins test CI failed. Could you please take a look? Thanks!

#6905 and this PR tackled the same issue (ray clusters being hardcoded to create ingresses) in parallel with the difference that I argue for actually disabling the ingress by default, see PR description:

This is a potential security problem as the ray head node might be exposed to the public internet in clusters with a default ingress class without the user knowing.

As a platform engineer, I'd admittedly be quite alarmed to discover that jobs launched by platform users have been creating potentially public ingresses without me being aware. This is why I don't like the default of enabling the ingress.

@EngHabu here you said

I like booleans to default to false... So I think this should be DisableIngress

upon which you, @mickjermsurawong-openai, changed your initial EnableIngress (with default true) to DisableIngress with (default false).

Would you be ok with merging this PR too which goes back to EnableIngress but with default false?

This PR also adds a unit test for BuildResource + enabling/disabling the ingress.

Fabio, curious without ingress, is Ray dashboard still available? My understanding is no (pls correct me i just started using the ray plugin). My thought is i'd setup KubeRay API for dashboard instead, although it's experimental feature, and we can set pod-template for ray job to add the right annotation.

[mickjermsurawong-openai]

I'm fine changing the flag back to EnableIngress!

[Sovietaced]

Marking this as a breaking change since the behavior does change and requires folks to update things.

Hi @mickjermsurawong-openai,
Do you mean KubeRay "APIServer"? I think by using APIServer you can connect to Ray dashboard without needed to set the annotation

I think it's safer to keep the default as enable that aligns with the current behavior, to prevent users's confusion. For example when they upgrade the newer flyte version, and Ray Dashboard cannot be accessed, they might not know what's happening
