Generate the PlantUML diagram from Kubernetes script

[VinayaSathyanarayana]

Is it possible to generate the diagram from the Kubernetes Script - may be with special flags/keys in comments?

That would be an awesome addition. That’s currently not implemented.

[VinayaSathyanarayana]

Thanks @dcasati . What do you suggest as the next steps to implement it?

[dcasati]

I'm investigating this. Open for suggestions though :)

@VinayaSathyanarayana what do you mean by "Kubernetes Script"? we have internally several ways of analyzing Helm Charts (the CRDs) which will result in PlantUML diagrams....this was one of the prototypes: https://github.com/amoAHCP/CRDtoUML/tree/master/crdTOuml

@amoAHCP, @dcasati - Thanks for responding. One creates a deployment yaml script for Kubernetes. I would like to visualize the dependencies of the yaml file through plantuml.

If we can generate plantuml diagrams from helm charts, that would be great

I came here to ask the same question about scripts to read k8s config files, including Helm Charts, apply a filter to extract the desired properties, and then convert to Kubernetes PlantUML.

It doesn't look like there's been any further discussion here. Have there been any further thoughts on this prospect?
