Available Commands

Generate

Generates Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) and other Kubernetes-related resources for your operator.

dotnet kubeops generate

The generate operator command creates all necessary resources for deploying your operator to Kubernetes:

• RBAC Rules: Role-based access control configurations
• Dockerfile: Container image definition for your operator
• Deployment: Kubernetes deployment configuration
• CRDs: Custom Resource Definitions based on your C# entities
• Namespace: A dedicated namespace for your operator
• Kustomization: Kustomize configuration for managing all resources

If your operator includes webhooks (mutations or validations), additional resources are generated:

• CA and Server Certificates: For secure webhook communication
• Webhook Configurations: For validation and mutation webhooks
• Service: For exposing webhook endpoints
• Secret Generators: For managing webhook certificates
