I'm not trying to yuck your yum, but you'll want to be _very careful_ about the uncanny valley of squatting on k8s manifests since there is a ton of functionality in those files and (as best I can tell) only by reading your readme can one tell which features actually work versus are just silently(?) swallowed



I just remembered that a big reason I did this was because podman supports controlling pods directly via subset of some k8s resources manifests (podman kube play). Squatting, as you put it, on the same version.

https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-kube-play.1...

I suppose I could tighten things up at my end anyway though.


Yeah, you're right, I'd need to at least have some kind of table of supported attributes, or even mint my own schema with the subset that's valid for skate.


Perhaps a tool that processes a k8s manifest and produces a modified manifest containing only the attributes that are supported?


You mean so the user can see themselves what will be applied?


Sure. Looking at the output would make clear which properties are actually recognized, and it could be commited to version control to avoid confusion
