WARNING: this is unstable. Pushes will be straight to main until 1.0.0.

rules_cdk8s generates yamls from cdk8s code.

cdk8s_charts(
    name = "main",
   
   # optionally can depend on npm packages...
   deps = [
        "@is-odd__3.0.1//:package", 
    ],

   
   # cdk8s code
   srcs = [
        "local-lib.ts", 
        "main.ts",
    ],

   # generates these kubernetes manifests!
    outs = [
        "a.yaml",
        "b.yaml",
    ],
)

A full, working example can be found in the e2e/smoke folder.

A large repository that generates a large number of manifests should split into many smaller cdk8s_charts, and then joined together. The package structure should look something like this:

graph TD
    A[Package A] --> Lib[Package lib]
    B[Package B] --> Lib[Package lib]
