ConfigMaps

ConfigMap Generators

Creating a ConfigMap from a kustomization.yaml:

configMapGenerator:
  - name: some-cmap
    files:
      - ./blah.yaml
    options:
      disableNameSuffixHash: true

This will create a ConfigMap named some-cmap from the file ./blah.yaml. It will also disable the hash suffix on the name of the ConfigMap.
