Kubernetes Removed API Lint

Runs the same checker as the npm package @readystack/k8s-removed-api-lint on a Node.js runtime that pip installs for you (nodejs-wheel-binaries) - no system Node.js needed. Your files are checked locally.

15 checks for the apiVersions kubectl no longer serves, on the manifest open in your editor

Install

k8s-removed-api-lint file

Node 18+. The same 15 rules as the VS Code extension, from a terminal or CI.

Free

• Check the manifest open in the editor against all 15 rules and get the removal release and the replacement apiVersion for every hit - a finished answer for that file, no key
• --rules lists every rule

With a licence ($29 once)

• Sweep every manifest in the workspace and write one dated migration report ordered by removal version - the same 15 rules at repo scope

@readystack/k8s-removed-api-lint --dir ./templates --report html --out report.html

A freelance Kubernetes consultant bills about 120 US dollars an hour, and reading one chart repo for beta apiVersions before an upgrade is most of a day
