[DataDogSLO] Support for time slice SLO provisioning

[bauerm97]

Hello,

I'm currently exploring provisioning SLOs using the datadog monitor, as it fits best into our internal platform workflow to provision via K8s. It looks like there's currently no support for time slice SLOs, which we do intend to use at some point in the near future. Is this feature currently under development, and if not is there interest in accepting a contribution adding it?

Hi @bauerm97, we're not actively working on adding time slice SLOs at the moment, but I can add a feature request to our backlog for this. We're also open to contributions if you or someone else would like to create a PR to add support for them

[bauerm97]

Thanks for the quick response @khewonc . I'm generally competent enough in Go that I could give it a stab. I'll try to find some time this week or early next week assuming DD is open to the contrib. Is there any pointers you could send my way as a "here's a few files as a starting point for where to plumb things through"?

@bauerm97 The time slice type can be defined as part of DatadogSLOType. The main reconcile loop for the slo controller is here. If the slo in-app needs to be updated or created, the operator calls buildSLO that translates the slo crd into the API defined in the datadog go client. I think those would be the most relevant bits of the code that I'd start with

I realize that, I'm just responding as the @dd-octo-sts bot instructed me to:
