[Virtual Exclusive] PRO SESSION (CloudX):Beyond Bash: Nushell Opens Up Shell Scripting Paths for Kubernetes
Tuesday November 12, 2024 12:00pm - 12:25pm PST
VIRTUAL API World -- Workshop Stage A
Ryota Sawada, Civo, Principal Engineer

The CNCF ecosystem has exploded with a diverse array of tools, each solving a unique problem. However, integrating multiple projects often leads to challenges requiring manual intervention and custom solutions, with shell scripting commonly used as a temporary stopgap. This approach, predominantly utilising Bash, frequently results in maintenance headaches such as poor code readability and debugging difficulties.

Nushell presents a modern take on shell scripting, offering a more intuitive syntax by dropping POSIX-compliance. It includes YAML friendly data model as a fundamental design, built-in commands equivalent to curl and jq, supports simple and clear module structures, and eliminates the confusion of single vs. double quotes.

We will have a quick look at Bash vs. Nushell difference, some example case of how Nushell data model makes it easier to deal with YAML configs, and extra automation and CI/CD ideas using its module and test capabilities.
