cdk-constructs: Stable

This module exports a single class called KubectlV35Layer which is a lambda.LayerVersion that bundles the kubectl and the helm command line.

  • Helm Version: 4.1.3
  • Kubectl Version: 1.35.2

Usage:

// KubectlLayer bundles the 'kubectl' and 'helm' command lines
import { KubectlV35Layer } from '@aws-cdk/lambda-layer-kubectl-v35';
import * as lambda from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda';

declare const fn: lambda.Function;
const kubectl = new KubectlV35Layer(this, 'KubectlLayer');
fn.addLayers(kubectl);

kubectl will be installed under /opt/kubectl/kubectl, and helm will be installed under /opt/helm/helm.
