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.yaml
└── 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.yaml`:
```yaml
---
context: k8s.prod.mydomain.com
global:
globalVar: lizards
include:
- name: some-api
values:
version: 1.0-0e6884d
importantFeature: true
apiPort: 4567
```
Those values are then templated into the resource files of `some-api`.
## Installation
Assuming you have Go configured correctly, you can simply `go get github.com/tazjin/kontemplate/...`.
## Usage
You must have `kubectl` installed to use KonTemplate effectively.
```
NAME:
kontemplate run - Interpolate and print templates
USAGE:
kontemplate run [command options] [arguments...]
OPTIONS:
--file value, -f value Cluster configuration file to use
--limit value, -l value Limit templating to certain resource sets
```
At the moment KonTemplate will simply output the templated Kubernetes resource files, which can
then be piped into `kubectl`:
```
# Look at output and check to see if it's correct ...
kontemplate run -f example/prod-cluster.yaml -l some-api
# ... if it is, go ahead and apply it
kontemplate run -f example/prod-cluster.yaml -l some-api | kubectl apply -f -
# That's it!
```
