---

End-of-Support

AWS CDK v1 has reached End-of-Support on 2023-06-01. This package is no longer being updated, and users should migrate to AWS CDK v2.

For more information on how to migrate, see the Migrating to AWS CDK v2 guide.

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

  • Helm Version: 3.5.4

  • Kubectl Version: 1.20.0

Usage:

# KubectlLayer bundles the 'kubectl' and 'helm' command lines
from aws_cdk.lambda_layer_kubectl import KubectlLayer

# fn: lambda.Function

fn.add_layers(KubectlLayer(self, "KubectlLayer"))

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