Kubernetes Java client to generate yaml files for you

If you - like me - hate having to type YAML by hand, you can take advantage of a pre-built K8S Model and YAML serialization tool:

https://github.com/fabric8io/kubernetes-client

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.fabric8</groupId>
    <artifactId>kubernetes-client</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.3</version>
</dependency>

import io.fabric8.kubernetes.api.model.Pod;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.api.model.apps.DeploymentBuilder;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.client.DefaultKubernetesClient;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.client.KubernetesClient;
import io.fabric8.kubernetes.client.internal.SerializationUtils;

public class KubernetesClientTest {
 public static void main(String[] args) throws JsonProcessingException {
  String yaml = SerializationUtils.dumpAsYaml(new DeploymentBuilder().withNewSpec().endSpec().build());
  System.out.println(yaml);
  
  KubernetesClient client = new DefaultKubernetesClient();
  Pod pod = new Pod();
  System.out.println(pod);
  String podyaml = SerializationUtils.dumpAsYaml(pod);
  System.out.println(podyaml);
 }

}

The model is incredibly rich.... one has only to learn how to use it...
