Kahoy - easy and reliable Kubernetes manifest deployments

When Kubectl is too simple and available deployment solutions too complex.

• Docs
• Releases
• Docker images

Main features

• Simple, flexible, and lightweight. A single CLI.
• Deploy any kind of Kubernetes resource (core resources, CRDs...).
• Reliable Garbage collection.
• Adapts to any type of Kubernetes manifest structure (a single YAML, few manifests, big manifest repository...).
• Use to deploy as individual releases/services (Helm style) or group of manifest repository (Flux style).
• Gitops ready (apply only changed resources, diff, dry-run...).
• Multiple resource filtering options (file paths, resource namespace, types...).
• Reports of what applies and deletes (useful to combine with other apps, e.g: wait, checks, notifications…).

Getting started

Check concepts docs and start deploying any kind of Kubernetes resources:

# Dry run.
$ kahoy apply --dry-run --kube-provider-id "ci" -n "./manifests"

# Diff changes.
$ kahoy apply --diff --kube-provider-id "ci" -n "./manifests"

# Deploy.
$ kahoy apply --kube-provider-id "ci" -n "./manifests"
