generatorOptions

Control behavior of ConfigMap and Secret generators.

Additionally, generatorOptions can be set on a per resource level within each generator. For details on per-resource generatorOptions usage see field-name-configMapGenerator and See field-name-secretGenerator.

apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization

generatorOptions:
  # labels to add to all generated resources
  labels:
    kustomize.generated.resources: somevalue
  # annotations to add to all generated resources
  annotations:
    kustomize.generated.resource: somevalue
  # disableNameSuffixHash is true disables the default behavior of adding a
  # suffix to the names of generated resources that is a hash of
  # the resource contents.
  disableNameSuffixHash: true
  # if set to true, the immutable property is added to generated resources
  immutable: true

Example I

Using ConfigMap

Input Files

apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization
configMapGenerator:
- name: my-application-properties
  files:
  - application.properties
generatorOptions:
  labels:
    kustomize.generated.resources: config-label
  annotations:
    kustomize.generated.resource: config-annotation
# application.properties
FOO=Bar

Output File

apiVersion: v1
data:
  application.properties: |-
    # application.properties
    FOO=Bar    
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  annotations:
    kustomize.generated.resource: config-annotation
