Question

I d appreciate any examples of Go and kubernetes where everything is NOT in a large single main function I m trying to break down this giant sucker into smaller pieces to work through if I can and have very limited time to finish this pilot test to see if I can replace a drafted helm chart Any help would be appreciated as I ll have to go another direction if I can get my plan setup I have more terraform + helm templating experience than Pulumi So far I finished setting up a config file with dev input values and will want to do a deployment + render to yaml in the next day or so I used kube2pulumi to get started

I can t find Pulumi K8 Go v3 option to RenderToYaml either Is this still pending

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

<https www pulumi com docs guides adopting from kubernetes rendering kubernetes yaml> I did this and it worked to render the deployment Will look further at this

< chilly plastic 75584> I think you re looking for a ComponentResource

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Ahhh Nice Ok so i can break pieces up and then put these in the NewDeployment This would let me create a seperate func for each service so I could potentionally render and test stuff easier later

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

you can import them as libraries basically so you can break things apart cleanly

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

and yes ComponentResources are unit testable

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Any repo with examples I m crunched for time unfortunately and still want to give this a shot over investing more in helm Anything to jump start would be great For now even just rendering the yaml and using pulumi as glorified templater would be a step forward slightly smiling face

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Oh and with the renderer is there something I can do to just render and not run deployment itself so I can do comparisons of the helm to this

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I don t mind putting this in github discussions if better too for others to benefit whatever works Just gonna have some small questions to work through and need to know the best avenue thanks

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

what examples are you looking for specifically

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I know terraform so normally I d use prebuitl modules I understand that Pulumi is going to be more hands on right now with the registry being so new I want to see a repo with example of breaking services into seperate functions in Go even better if any unit testing examples included I ll want to eventually run in minikube kind locally but for now Im just sticking with the shared cluster i have I want to run pulumi up and just get the rendered yaml and not try to deploy yet so I can compare the generated yaml to the helm template rendering and make sure I m on track

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Hopefully that helps Stepping away Please feel free to have me post in github so others benefit or just here whatever is easiest for you pulumi pros slightly smiling face Right now I m trying to replace a CI text templating replacement approach with a code driven approach but for now I m trying to emulate this exact deployment it s almost the same as a brand new helm template but has some more security features added

thanks

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

unfortunately I won t have the time to put that together but the component resource example i sent above should be a good starting point

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Ok That s honestly my biggest point of feedback as a user wanting to adopt Lots of good examples but definitely would love to see more including testing patterns I ll look on github too I also need to know if I can render the yaml without trying to deploy I want to preview this but before I trying to deploy I can t figure out how to do that

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

renderYamltoDirectory won t do a deploy at all if that helps only outputs the yaml

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

< billowy army 68599> yes I mean to get the rendering to run I seem to have to run `pulumi up` refresh preview don t seem to render the yaml

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Oh are you saying when I set the provider to have rendertoyaml as an option that overrides actually trying to deploy it

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I think i see I need to add the renderer to the components not just deployment looking now as I bet that s it

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

So far so good NewRole for example added ` pulumi Provider renderProvider ` and i think this solves the issue

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

BOOM

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

worked I like it Now at least I can render and mature it from there just taking a small step to confirm my yaml matches expectations The Component stuff is a bit deep so I m going to have to look into this plus Integration unit testing soon too Any resources welcomed

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

< billowy army 68599> ok now that I have yaml rendered any idea on how pass an option to either use the renderer for yaml or go ahead and deploy I m going to try using pulumi directly later today so not sure if I can do both since the yaml file target is the managed resource with that provider being set I m assuming I can t do both and set a yaml only flag I m assuming I d have to create another provider that is just the k8 target and use a switch to pick which one to pass

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

the renderyaml option is designed to be used if you re doing something with a gitops executor like flux or argocd

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

you d need a second provider to do the deploy directly with pulumi

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I have a new config flag in yaml that is `onlyyaml true` and when I flip it seems to be correctly identifying the change

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

Let me confirm I can t use pulumi for dual output to yaml since it s actually managing the yaml like it would any resource It s not really any type of Export but an actual managed resource As a result I can render like I showed but when I flip over to deploying to actual k8 I m not going to be able to render to yaml + deploy at the same time It s a 1 or the other option right

billowy-army-68599 · Answer

correct

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

< billowy army 68599> i put a follow up in more long form here to confirm I m not missing anything else so others benefit I ll try to post more of that on github since it s visible to all and myself when I repeat the same questions later wink
