About:
tfk8s is a command-line tool that parses Kubernetes YAML manifests and converts them into Terraform HCL configuration. This allows DevOps engineers to migrate existing Kubernetes resources into Terraform management without manual rewriting. It streamlines the adoption of infrastructure-as-code practices for clusters.
Key Features:
  • Parses standard Kubernetes YAML files
  • Generates valid Terraform HCL syntax
  • Supports piping input via stdin for automation
  • Handles standard resource types like Deployments and Services
Use Cases:
  • Importing existing cluster resources into a Terraform state
  • Converting static YAML configurations into dynamic infrastructure code
  • Automating the translation of manifests for CI/CD pipelines
Alternatives:
  • k2tf – Similar functionality written in Go; tfk8s is often cited for its specific CLI simplicity.
  • kubectl – Standard cluster CLI; does not perform Terraform conversion but is used to generate the YAML input.
