Kubernetes kustomize command giving error when we specify base manifest files in kustomization.yaml file under resources section
Kustomize doesn't allow you to directly include resource files that are not in the same directory or a subdirectory of where your kustomization.yml file is located.
The usual way to use a base in your overlay is to add a kustomization.yml file in the base and include the base directory in the kustomization.yml of your overlay. For example:
k8s/kustomize/base/kustomization.yaml:
resources:- deployment.yaml- service.yaml- configmap.yaml- secret.yamland in k8s/kustomize/overlays/test/kustomization.yaml:
resources:- ../../base- namespace.yamlnamespace: app-testcommonLabels: variant: test app: test-apppatchesStrategicMerge:- secret.yaml- configmap.yaml
Maybe something change because the following example does that the question was trying to do: https://kubectl.docs.kubernetes.io/references/kustomize/resource/
