On my helm experience, it’s unnecessary complex and overengineered, I always end up managing a huge bulk of templates with yet another template engine … I still believe that managing kubernetes configurations should be simpler

Hi! With all respect to dagger tool itself, I am still not convinced by this post in what dagger could give me for IaC? 1. If I need to run things locally I can use polumi cli 2. Dagger case in this post is just a wrapper around polumi comm

You can have all that by using yaml based pipeline framework _together_ with building blocks written on general purpose languages

Yes,debugging long running /complex / multistage pipelines is a tedious process, however imho it does not make a huge difference if one runs the same pipelines locally (they won’t turn into something more lightweight after that lo

You might want to check out the SparrowCI - it has combination of yaml AND standard programming languages ( Python/Ruby/GoLang/Powershell/Bash/Raku) giving you the best of two worlds - declarative style and extreme

The bottleneck is not a tool, but what it does by doing “configuration management”, most of the time it repeats the same, well idempotent operations, which take time. This should be addressed not by tool but by a proper design.

You just need to start using it. Raku is here and ready for many practical tasks. Again you don’t have to keep up with all Raku features, you may want to just start using it for something … )

Isn’t it the same as if to say - “you are given hammer and nails only because anything more complex would make it things harder to the rest of your team”? But Raku, by the way could be that way - very simple and you don’t have to use all it

well, yaml based DSLs seems are mainstream now (I don't say they are perfect), they have all the mentioned issues, however if they are substituted by pure programming languages, we have another issue - we tie ourselves to a specific la

You can try out SparrowCI ( https://github.com/melezhik/SparrowCI ) -it’s simple and could be self-hosted. It builds on docker images, so if you spin up an SparrowCI on arm64 host you should be probably good. It’s not po

On my view of the main disadvantages of go (however overall I find the language is quite good by itself), stopping me from using it in full, is it's very verbose language , where one need to write a lot of code for really simple things

That is all ok, however Dockerfile means one builds an image for a certain OS/Linux distribution ( base image or FROM directive) , not just a specific Golang version, I did not find how one can do so in the provided examples
