K8sManifest

K8sManifest deploys arbitrary Kubernetes manifests to the target cluster. Use it for resources that don’t have a dedicated Kyku resource type, or for applying pre-existing YAML files.

Supports inline manifest strings, file paths, entire directories, or raw JavaScript objects.

Example

// Inline manifest
const dashboard = new K8sManifest({
  name: 'kubernetes-dashboard',
  cluster: myCluster,
  manifest: `
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: dashboard-admin
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
metadata:
  name: dashboard-admin

  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: cluster-admin
subjects:
  - kind: ServiceAccount
    name: dashboard-admin
    namespace: default
`,
})

// From file
const monitoring = new K8sManifest({
  name: 'prometheus-stack',
  cluster: myCluster,
  manifestFile: './manifests/prometheus.yaml',
  prune: false,
})

// From object
const crd = new K8sManifest({
  name: 'custom-resource',
  cluster: myCluster,
  manifestObject: {
    apiVersion: 'example.com/v1',
