Overview#

The kubeconform function wraps the kubeconform binary to validate resources
against their json schemas.

This function is often used in the following scenarios:

  • Validating resources as part of the local development workflow.
  • Validating resources in CI.

Usage#

This function validates each resource using its json schema. If the json schema
is not available for a resource, the function will complain unless
the ignore_missing_schemas field is true or the kind of this resource
appears in the skip_kinds field.

This function can be used both declaratively and imperatively.

FunctionConfig#

The function configuration must be a ConfigMap.

The following keys can be used in the data field of the ConfigMap, and all of
them are optional:

  • schema_location: The base URI used to fetch the json schemas.
    This feature only works with imperative runs, since declarative runs
    allow neither network access nor volume mount.
  • additional_schema_locations: List of secondary base URIs used to fetch the
    json schemas. These URIs will be used if the URI specified
    by schema_location did not have the required schema. The default is empty.
    This feature only works with imperative runs.
  • ignore_missing_schemas: Skip validation for resources without a schema. The
    default is false.
  • skip_kinds: Comma-separated list of case-sensitive kinds to skip when
    validating against schemas. The default is empty.
  • strict: Disallow additional properties that are not in the schemas. The
    default is false.

The following is an example function configuration:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: my-func-config
data:
  schema_location: "file:///abs/path/to/your/schema/directory"
  additional_schema_locations: "https://kubernetesjsonschema.dev,file:///abs/path/to/your/other/schema/directory"
  ignore_missing_schemas: "false"
  skip_kinds: "DaemonSet,MyCRD"
  strict: "true"

If neither schema_location nor additional_schema_locations is provided,
the default baked-in schema will be used for validaton. The existing baked-in
schema was taken from the master branch of the kubernetes-json-schema
repository, at this commit.

Convert OpenAPI to JSON Schema#

If you want to convert OpenAPI to json schema, you can use
openapi2jsonschema.
