# Namespace
Author: [Nick Santos](https://github.com/nicks)
Helper functions for creating Kubernetes namespaces and manipulating
namespaces on Kubernetes objects.
## Functions
### `namespace_yaml(name: str): Blob`
Returns YAML for a Kubernetes namespace.
### `namespace_create(name: str, allow_duplicates: boolean = False)`
Deploys a namespace to the cluster. Equivalent to
```
load('ext://namespace', 'namespace_yaml')
k8s_yaml(namespace_yaml('name'), allow_duplicates=False)
```
### `namespace_inject(objects: Union[str, Blob], namespace: str): Blob`
Given YAML for Kubernetes objects, return new YAML with a different namespace.
## Example Usage
### For a fixed namespace:
```
load('ext://namespace', 'namespace_create', 'namespace_inject')
namespace_create('my-namespace')
k8s_yaml(namespace_inject(read_file('deployment.yaml'), 'my-namespace'))
```
### For a user-specific namespace:
```
load('ext://namespace', 'namespace_create', 'namespace_inject')
ns = 'user-%s' % os.environ.get('USER', 'anonymous')
namespace_create(ns)
k8s_yaml(namespace_inject(read_file('deployment.yaml'), ns))
```
## Caveats
- `namespace_inject` assumes all resources are namespaced-scoped.
The behavior is undefined for cluster-scoped resources.
- This extension doesn't do any validation to confirm that namespace names are valid.
The behavior is undefined on invalid namespaces.
