Kubernetes Fluent Client for Node

The Kubernetes Fluent Client for Node is a fluent API for the Kubernetes JavaScript Client with some additional logic for Server Side Apply, Watch with retry/signal control, and Field Selectors. In addition to providing a human-friendly API, it also provides a simple way to create and manage resources in the cluster and integrate with K8s in a type-safe way.

See below for some example uses of the library.

import { K8s, kind } from "kubernetes-fluent-client";

// Let's create a random namespace to work in
const namespace = "my-namespace" + Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000);

// This will be called after the resources are created in the cluster
async function demo() {
  // Now, we can use the fluent API to query for the resources we just created

  // You can use watch to monitor resources in the cluster and react to changes
  const watcher = K8s(kind.Pod).Watch((pod, phase) => {
    console.log(`Pod ${pod.metadata?.name} is ${phase}`);
  });

  // This will run until the process is terminated or the watch is aborted
  await watcher.start();

  // Let's abort the watch after 5 seconds
  setTimeout(watcher.close, 5 * 1000);

  // Passing the name to Get() will return a single resource
  const ns = await K8s(kind.Namespace).Get(namespace);
  console.log(ns);

  // This time we'll use the InNamespace() method to filter the results by namespace and name
  const cm = await K8s(kind.ConfigMap).InNamespace(namespace).Get("my-configmap");
  console.log(cm);

  // If we don't pass a name to Get(), we'll get a list of resources as KubernetesListObject
  // The matching resources will be in the items property
  const pods = await K8s(kind.Pod).InNamespace(namespace).Get();
  console.log(pods);

  // Now let's delete the resources we created, you can pass the name to Delete() or the resource itself
  await K8s(kind.Namespace).Delete(namespace);

  // Let's use the field selector to find all the running pods in the cluster
  const runningPods = await K8s(kind.Pod).WithField("status.phase", "Running").Get();
  runningPods.items.forEach(pod => {
    console.log(`${pod.metadata?.namespace}/${pod.metadata?.name} is running`);
  });
}

// Create a few resources to work with: Namespace, ConfigMap, and Pod
Promise.all([
  // Create the namespace
  K8s(kind.Namespace).Apply({
    metadata: {
      name: namespace,
    },
  }),

  // Create the ConfigMap in the namespace
  K8s(kind.ConfigMap).Apply({
    metadata: {
      name: "my-configmap",
      namespace,
    },
    data: {
      "my-key": "my-value",
    },
  }),

  // Create the Pod in the namespace
  K8s(kind.Pod).Apply({
    metadata: {
      name: "my-pod",
      namespace,
    },
    spec: {
      containers: [
        {
          name: "my-container",
          image: "nginx",
        },
      ],
    },
  }),
])
  .then(demo)
  .catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
  });
