LimitRange YAML Generator

Build a valid Kubernetes LimitRange (core/v1) with CPU/memory defaults, minimums and maximums.

Runs entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded and no cluster connection is made.

About LimitRange YAML Generator

A LimitRange sets sane defaults and guardrails for the resources pods and containers can use in a namespace. The LimitRange YAML Generator writes that manifest from a form so you do not have to recall the core/v1 schema.

You set the LimitRange name and namespace, choose a limit type (Container, Pod or PersistentVolumeClaim), and then set the CPU and memory ceilings and floors you want: max, min, default and defaultRequest. Only the fields you fill are emitted. The resulting YAML is valid core/v1.

The name is validated as an RFC 1123 label and the namespace, if set, must be valid too. At least one resource constraint is required. Problems are reported in a clear panel. Everything runs locally and nothing is uploaded.

Features

  • Limit types - Container, Pod, PersistentVolumeClaim.
  • Per resource - cpu and memory with max, min, default, defaultRequest.
  • Flexible values - 500m, 1, 1Gi, 512Mi.
  • core/v1 - correct schema.
  • Validation - RFC 1123 name, namespace and at least one constraint.
  • Copy / Download / Print - get limitrange.yaml wherever you need it.

How to Use

  1. Name the LimitRange. Type a valid RFC 1123 name.
  2. Set the namespace and type.
  3. Fill the CPU/memory constraints. Only the fields you need.
  4. Watch the preview and export.

Examples

Example 1 - container defaults. type Container, default cpu 500m, default memory 512Mi.

Example 2 - bounds. max cpu 1, min memory 64Mi.

Example 3 - pod type. type Pod, max cpu 2.

Example 4 - default request. defaultRequest cpu 100m.

Example 5 - memory heavy. max memory 4Gi, min 128Mi.

Benefits

  • Correct schema - valid core/v1 LimitRange.
  • Default and bounds - max/min/default/defaultRequest.
  • Validated - names and at least one constraint checked.
  • Clean output - empty fields omitted.
  • Private - everything runs in the browser.
  • Copy, download or print - get the manifest where you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a LimitRange?
A LimitRange enforces default, minimum and maximum compute resources (and other constraints) for pods and containers in a namespace. It is a namespaced v1 resource.
What limit types are supported?
Container, Pod and PersistentVolumeClaim. Most users use Container to set per-container defaults and bounds.
Which fields can I set?
For each resource (cpu, memory) you can set max, min, default and defaultRequest. Leave any blank to omit it.
How are values written?
CPU is like 1 or 500m; memory is like 1Gi or 512Mi.
Is the name validated?
Yes. The LimitRange name must be a valid RFC 1123 label (lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens).
Does this connect to a cluster?
No. Everything is assembled in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
Can I download it?
Yes. Copy the YAML, download limitrange.yaml, or print it.
