Kubernetes tips

☸️

kubectl accepts both YAML and JSON. JSON is easier to manipulate in scripts; YAML is easier for humans to read. Convert between them as your workflow needs.

💡

When debugging "kubectl apply" errors, converting to JSON often makes the actual structure clearer. YAML's whitespace-sensitivity can hide schema issues.

🔍

For programmatic API access (e.g., the K8s client-go library), JSON is the wire format. Use this tool to convert your manifests to JSON for direct API calls.

📋

When generating manifests from templates (Helm, Kustomize), the output is often YAML. Convert to JSON to feed into validators like kubeval or OPA Gatekeeper.
