Support KRM in Kustomize plugin - Secretize

[aabouzaid]

Intro

Kustomize (the official tool to create K8s IaC) adopted the new Kubernetes declarative configurations known as KRM Functions. The new style is used as a unified way to interact with Kustomize plugins. There are 2 ways to use KRM in the plugins: Containerized KRM Functions and Exec KRM functions.

Not all Kustomize plugins adopted the new format; hence the goal of this task is to support the new method in existing plugins, namely, Secretize.

Acquired Skills

By doing this task, you will gain the following skills:

• Golang coding skills.
• Kustomize plugin ecosystem.
• Unerstanding of Kubernetes Resource Model (KRM).

The Challange

Support KRM in Secretize Kustomize plugin.

The Task

• Create an issue in Secretize to propose supporting KRM.
• Fork the Secretize repo and create a new branch to work on the task.
• Create a PR in the forked repo and assign me (@aabouzaid) as a reviewer.

Notes and Tips

• Get into KRM: Kustomize Enhancement with KRM Functions
• There are 2 libs to support KRM, kpt-functions-sdk/go/fn from Google and another kyaml/fn/framework from the Kustomize project. Please use the one from Kustomize. It makes it easy to write KRM functions.
• A good example of using kyaml/fn/framework (the one from Kustomize) is kustomize-kubeconformvalidator.
