Demerzels-lab K8s Generator
Translating docker-compose to Kubernetes manifests is tedious YAML shuffling. Feed in your compose file and get proper K8s manifests back.
One command. Zero config. Just works.
Quick Start
npx ai-k8s docker-compose.yml
What It Does
- Converts docker-compose to Kubernetes manifests
- Generates from plain English descriptions
- Creates Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps
- Handles secrets and persistent volumes
Usage Examples
# From docker-compose
npx ai-k8s docker-compose.yml --namespace production
# From description
npx ai-k8s "3 replicas of a node app with redis and postgres"
# Save output
npx ai-k8s docker-compose.yml -o k8s-manifests.yml
Best Practices
- Use namespaces - organize your resources
- Set resource limits - prevent runaway pods
- Add health checks - liveness and readiness probes
- Use secrets properly - don't hardcode credentials
When to Use This
- Migrating from docker-compose to Kubernetes
- Setting up new K8s deployments
- Learning Kubernetes manifest structure
- Quick prototyping before fine-tuning
