KonTemplate - A simple Kubernetes templater
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/tazjin/kontemplate)
|
|
|
|
I made this tool out of frustration with the available ways to template Kubernetes resource files. All I want out of
|
|
such a tool is a way to specify lots of resources with placeholders that get filled in with specific values, based on
|
|
which context (i.e. k8s cluster) is specified.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
KonTemplate lets you describe resources as you normally would in a simple folder structure:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.
|
|
├── prod-cluster.json
|
|
└── some-api
|
|
├── deployment.yaml
|
|
└── service.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This example has all resources belonging to `some-api` (no file naming conventions enforced at all!) in the `some-api`
|
|
folder and the configuration for the cluster `prod-cluster` in the corresponding file.
|
|
|
|
Lets take a short look at `prod-cluster.json`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"context": "k8s.prod.mydomain.com",
|
|
"include": [
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "some-api",
|
|
"values": {
|
|
"importantFeature": true,
|
|
"apiPort": 4567
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Those values are then templated into the resource files of `some-api`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
You must have `kubectl` installed to use KonTemplate.
