About Fleet CLI

Fleet CLI creates and inspects deployment bundles from Helm charts, Kubernetes manifests, and Kustomize files, then evaluates cluster targeting or deploys bundles to a cluster.

Strengths

  • Creates bundles from Helm charts, Kubernetes manifests, and Kustomize folders.
  • Previews bundles and evaluates cluster targeting rules.
  • The apply command can create or preview bundles without a cluster.

Limitations

  • Cluster interaction and deployment require Fleet installed in the cluster.
