Types and traits necessary for interacting with the Kubernetes API

This crate provides the minimal apimachinery necessary to make requests to the kubernetes API.

It does not export export a client, but it also has almost no dependencies.

Everything in this crate is re-exported from kube (even with zero features) under kube::core.


kube-core

Core traits and types necessary for interacting with the kubernetes API. The rust counterpart to kubernetes/apimachinery.

Usage

This crate is always re-exported from kube (even without features) under kube::core.

Docs

See the kube-core API Docs

Development

Help very welcome! We need generic utilities, helpers like those in apimachinery, testing improvements, or just documentation. See https://github.com/kube-rs/kube/labels/core
