Convert Kubernetes YAML to Pulumi programs in Go, TypeScript, Python, C# and Java. Improve your Kubernetes development experience by taking advantage of strong types, compilation errors, full IDE support for features like autocomplete. Declare and manage the infrastructure in any cloud in the same program that manages your Kubernetes resources.
Check out the kube2pulumi web app to see kube2pulumi in action in your browser.
- Pulumi CLI
- Install the Pulumi Kubernetes plugin:
$ pulumi plugin install resource kubernetes v3.0.0If you wish to use kube2pulumi without developing the tool itself, you can use one of the binary
releases hosted on GitHub.
kube2pulumi can be installed on Mac from the Pulumi Homebrew tap.
brew install pulumi/tap/kube2pulumikube2pulumi uses Go modules to manage dependencies. If you want to develop kube2pulumi itself, you'll need to have Go installed in order to build.
Once this prerequisite is installed, run the following to build the kube2pulumi binary and install it into $GOPATH/bin:
$ go build -o $GOPATH/bin/kube2pulumi -ldflags="-X github.com/pulumi/kube2pulumi/pkg/version.Version=1.0.0" cmd/kube2pulumi/main.goThe ldflags argument is necessary to dynamically set the kube2pulumi version at build time. However, the version
itself can be anything, so you don't have to set it to dev.
Go should automatically handle pulling the dependencies for you. If $GOPATH/bin is not on your path, you may want to
move the kube2pulumi binary from $GOPATH/bin into a directory that is on your path.
In order to use kube2pulumi to convert Kubernetes YAML to Pulumi and then deploy it,
you'll first need to install the Pulumi CLI.
Once the Pulumi CLI has been installed, you'll need to install the Kubernetes plugin:
$ pulumi plugin install resource kubernetes v2.4.2Now, navigate to the same directory as the the YAML you'd like to convert and create a new Pulumi stack in your favorite language:
// For a Go project
$ pulumi new kubernetes-go -f
// For a TypeScript project
$ pulumi new kubernetes-typescript -f
// For a Python project
$ pulumi new kubernetes-python -f
// For a C# project
$ pulumi new kubernetes-csharp -f
// For a Java project
$ pulumi new kubernetes-java -fThen run kube2pulumi which will write a file in the directory that
contains the Pulumi project you just created:
// For a Go project
$ kube2pulumi go
// For a TypeScript project
$ kube2pulumi typescript
// For a Python project
$ kube2pulumi python
// For a C# project
$ kube2pulumi csharp
// For a Java project
$ kube2pulumi javaThis will generate a Pulumi program that when run with pulumi update will deploy the
Kubernetes resources originally described by your YAML. Note that before deployment you will need to configure Kubernetes so the Pulumi CLI can connect to a Kubernetes cluster. If you have previously configured the kubectl CLI, kubectl, Pulumi will respect and use your configuration settings.
Let's convert a simple YAML file describing a pod with a single container running nginx:

kind: Pod

resources:
limits:
memory: 20Mi
cpu: 0.2

)
func main() {
pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {

}kube2pulumi currently does not handle the conversion of CustomResourceDefinitions or CustomResources. However, our
new tool crd2pulumi, creates strongly-typed args for a Resource based on your CRD! If using CRD/CR's make sure to check out the following tool!
