kubernetes-snippets

Code snippets of kubernetes for visual studio code.

This image shows an example of what you can do with this extension. In 3 words: typing very fast!

To create secrets, we can just use the template and write them in plain text. Using the key combination of Cmd+k, Cmd+E if you're in OSX (Ctrl if you're in linux/windows) you can encode to Base64.

You want to decode a secret, the key combination is Cmd + K, Cmd + D.

There are snippets to quickly create pods, services, deployments,etc. As well, there are snippets to quickly add parts of the descriptor like ports, cmd and volumes

For example, if you start typing deployment a suggestion will be shown (deployment, deployment_simple), if you expand the snippet you will get something like this:

    apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
    kind: Deployment
    metadata:
    name: Enter deployment name
    spec:
    replicas: Enter the number of replicas
    template:
        metadata:
        labels:
            editor: vscode
        spec:
        containers:
        - name: name
            image: Enter containers image

The template allow to quickly add the name of the Deployment, number of replicas and, the image of the container. The Deployment and the container use the same name.

Once you have the template filled, you can add ports using the ports snippet, for example.

    apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
    kind: Deployment
    metadata:
    name: nginx-test
    spec:
    replicas: 1
    template:
        metadata:
        labels:
            editor: vscode
        spec:
        containers:
        - name: nginx-test
            image: nginx
            ports:
            - name: nginx
            port: 80
            protocol: TCP
