About This Tool

The Kubernetes YAML to Mermaid Diagram converter is a powerful, client-side utility designed for DevOps engineers, architects, and developers. It parses complex Kubernetes manifests (YAML) and automatically generates visual flowcharts using the Mermaid.js library.

Unlike other tools that simply list resources, our intelligent engine analyzes selectors, labels, and service definitions to draw meaningful connection lines between your Services, Deployments, Pods, Ingresses, and ConfigMaps. This helps you instantly validate your cluster architecture and debug networking issues.

How to Use

  • Paste YAML: Copy your Kubernetes manifest content into the left editor. You can paste multiple documents separated by ---.
  • Visualize: The tool automatically parses the code and renders a diagram on the right.
  • Customize: Use the dropdowns to change the diagram direction (Top-Down or Left-Right) or filter the complexity.
  • Export: Click "SVG" or "PNG" to download high-quality images for your documentation or presentations.

Features

  • Intelligent Linking: Automatically detects relationships based on matchLabels and selectors.
  • Privacy First: All processing happens in your browser. Your sensitive YAML data never leaves your device.
  • Multi-Doc Support: Handles full manifest files with multiple resources.
  • Export Ready: Generate crisp SVG vectors or standard PNG images instantly.
