---------------------- To use a

kubectl

command in a Kubernetes deployment, you first need to have a Kubernetes cluster that you can deploy to. You should also have permissions to create namespaces in your cluster, and to create Deployments, Daemonsets, Services, and Ingresses within the namespaces. Here is a basic guide on how to create a Kubernetes cluster on some common cloud providers: - AWS () - GCP () - Azure () Once you have a Kubernetes cluster, you can perform basic operations on it with

kubectl

. For example, if you want to execute a command in a running

Deploy

container, you can use the

garden exec

command:

bash
garden exec my-deploy <command>

This command will execute the specified command in the

my-deploy

container. Please note that not all Garden commands can be run in workflows, and some option flags are not available. You can check the command reference () to see which commands are supported in workflows.

---------------------- Garden supports Kustomize out of the box for Kubernetes action types. You can apply your Kustomize manifests via the

kubernetes

deploy action type in Garden. Here's a basic example of how you can do this: 1. First, specify your Kubernetes manifests in your

garden.yml

configuration file. You can either point Garden to the actual manifest files via the

spec.files

directive or add the manifests inline in your Garden config under the

spec.manifests

directive.

yaml
kind: Deploy
type: kubernetes
name: test
spec:
  kustomization:
    path: ./kustomize-add-annotation
  files:
    - manifests/grafana-dashboardDefinitions.yaml

2. Then, run the

garden deploy

command to apply your manifests.

bash
garden deploy

This will apply your Kustomize manifests to your Kubernetes cluster. Please note that there are some open feature requests on GitHub to extend the Kustomize support in Garden, for example to the Helm module or to allow Kustomize with remote sources. These features are not yet implemented, but they are being considered by the Garden team.
