How it works

The selected workload kind is rendered with apiVersion, kind, metadata, and a kind-specific spec. Deployment, Service, ConfigMap, Secret, Ingress, CronJob, and PVC templates place supplied names, images, ports, replicas, or key-values into expected fields.

  • Stable API groups and a default namespace keep starters portable.
  • Generated manifests remain editable cluster-specific starting points.

Worked example

Deployment with probes + resource limits
Kubernetes Deployment for an Nginx API with 3 replicas, resource requests/limits, and health probes
Input
											Kind: Deployment
Name: my-api
Namespace: default
Image: nginx:1.25
Replicas: 3
Port: 80
Resources: true
Probes: true
Output
												apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: my-api
  namespace: default
  labels:
    app: my-api
spec:
  replicas: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: my-api
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: my-api
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: my-api
          image: nginx:1.25
          ports:
            - containerPort: 80
          resources:
            requests:
              cpu: 100m
              memory: 128Mi
            limits:
              cpu: 500m
              memory: 256Mi
          livenessProbe:
            httpGet:
              path: /healthz
              port: 80
            initialDelaySeconds: 15
            periodSeconds: 10…

When to use this

Deployment scaffolding, platform templates, and test clusters generate manifests.

Edge cases

  • Secret values are configuration text, not encoded or encrypted secrets.
  • Ingress needs a controller and TLS settings the generic template cannot infer.
  • An image tag does not prove availability or immutability.
