Dependencies

kubectl needs to be installed and configured to connect to the cluster you want to deploy to.

Namespaces

If the namespace you specify does not exist, it will create it.

Environment variable substitution

It will run all Kubernetes configs through a template renderer before applying them,
so you can use Golang template format variables in your Kubernetes configs.

someParam: "{{ .SOME_ENV_VARIABLE }}"
