cdk8s VS yq

Any, it doesn’t matter which as long as you don’t have to count spaces in yaml by hand.

If you really want a concrete recommendation try https://cdk8s.io/.

CDK8s - CDK8s is used to define Kubernetes resources and applications. CDK8s uses the high-level abstraction concept called constructs to represent various Kubernetes resources such as deployments, services, and configurations. Developers can write code in programming languages like TypeScript, Python, and Java, and CDK8s will translate this code into standard Kubernetes YAML manifests that can be directly applied to a Kubernetes cluster.

Have you looked into https://cdk8s.io/? I've been using it for a while now, and I must admit TypeSript does help a lot. Not really sold on your React syntax yet, but well done nevertheless

I, personally, prefer to wrap it in CDKTF/CDK8S in golang and manage with Crossplane Composition Functions, but your mileage may vary. I'm finding way too bugs in CDK's... but it calms me a bit, that Amazon folks actually looking into it.

Have you looked into cdk8s? That will let you get away from dealing with yaml and let you use code instead. Helm included.

My favorite is cdk8s + typescript.

What about https://cdk8s.io/?

What I often use to just get the full key paths is yq (https://github.com/mikefarah/yq), piping into grep when necessary

  yq -o=props

I've been trying to install and config a plugin (papis.nvim) for a couple of days and am having issues with a function that uses io.popen to run yq to convert yaml files to json. I know my install of yq is fine- I can run yq -oj info.yaml from the command line with no issue and it produces the correct json output. I know the function can find the yq executable, but it returns nil. I've saved the error from the yq golang code: panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

- yq has no if-then-else https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/issues/95 which is a poor design (or omission) in my opinion

After which, I use openapi-generator to make a yaml output.

- yq version 3.4.1 (Worth noting, the example uses an out of date yq, so a few modifictaions might be needed)

jq is awesome and thanks to the new team for their recent efforts and energy, it massively appreciated.

For anyone looking for such a script, there's some CLIs that make it easy. One is `yq -o props` [1], another way is to use `yq -j` or `yj` [2] to convert to JSON and pipe it to `gron` [3].
