kubeval VS helm

I don't use it myself, but it seems what are you looking for. https://github.com/instrumenta/kubeval

1. Validate Using ValidKube, you can Validate your YAML files. It can help you fix the indentation also add, remove and rearrange things according to the actual YAML and Kubernetes schema. It is available as a open source repository as Kubeval . https://github.com/instrumenta/kubeval

The idea behind Validkube is to fuse together the capabilities of three other popular open-source projects (kubeval, kubectl-neat & trivy) and present them in a single view, providing users with a way to ensure YAML code hygiene and security, in one place, with just a few clicks of the button.

Kubeval - Well known, It only validates against the given Kubernetes Version but doesn’t provide a migration path

Kubeval and kubeconform are command-line tools that were developed with the intent to validate Kubernetes manifests without the requirement of having a running Kubernetes environment. Because kubeconform is based on kubeval, they operate similarly — verification is performed against pre-generated JSON schemas that are created from the OpenAPI specifications (swagger.json) for each particular Kubernetes version. All that remains to run the schema validation tests is to point the tool executable to a single manifest, directory or pattern.

What is Helm

Pro Tip: Use Helm charts to manage Kubernetes configurations and deployments more efficiently.

Helm

In this lab, we deploy kube-ops-view via *Helm *. Helm is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts, which means a preconfigured Kubernetes resource package. The purpose of managing charts with Helm is to manage various manifest files easily.

You might want to choose a different name and branding. [Helm](https://helm.sh/) is already a package manager for Kubernetes with pretty similar branding.

I don't plan on covering Helm here as I think it adds complexity over already quite complex K8s manifests. Surely it might be useful for large-scale stuff, but let's keep things simple here. I have combined knowledge from the articles with the updated charts in order to created a trimmed-down version of the required manifests (it would be good to add liveliness and readiness probes though):

Migrating all my Kubernetes files to Helm would be a good idea as well.

A Helm Chart is a collection of templates and settings that describe a set of Kubernetes resources.

Today, we will continue our journey with Nuke by adding new targets to the solution presented in Nuke: Deploy ASP.NET Web App to Azure. This time, we will deploy our application to a local Kubernetes cluster using Helm.
