## custom resource definition
One can extend the k8s API by making a
Custom Resource Definition ([CRD spec]).
This defines a custom [resource] (CD), an entirely
new resource that can be used alongside _native_
resources like ConfigMaps, Deployments, etc.
Kustomize can customize a CD, but to do so
kustomize must also be given the corresponding CRD
so that it can interpret the structure correctly.

* [resources] - completely specified k8s API objects,

containing a [kustomization]. These bases may
be subjected to more customization, or merely
included in the output.
* [CRD]s - custom resource definition files, to allow use
of _custom_ resources in the _resources_ list.

* Generators, for creating more resources
(configmaps and secrets) which can then be
customized.

## patch
A _patch_ is a partially defined k8s resource with a
name that must match a resource already known per
traversal rules built into [kustomize].
General instructions to modify a resource.
_Patch_ is a field in the kustomization, distinct from
resources, because a patch file looks like a resource
file, but has different semantics. A patch depends on
(modifies) a resource, whereas a resource has no
dependencies. Since any resource file can be used as a
patch, one cannot reliably distinguish a resource from
a patch just by looking at the file's [YAML].
There are two alternative techniques with similar
power but different notation - the
[strategic merge patch](#patchstrategicmerge)
and the [JSON patch](#patchjson6902).
## patchStrategicMerge
A _patchStrategicMerge_ is [strategic-merge]-style patch (SMP).
An SMP looks like an incomplete YAML specification of
a k8s resource. The SMP includes `TypeMeta`
fields to establish the group/version/kind/name of the
[resource] to patch, then just enough remaining fields
to step into a nested structure to specify a new field
value, e.g. an image tag.
By default, an SMP _replaces_ values. This
usually desired when the target value is a simple
string, but may not be desired when the target
value is a list.
To change this
default behavior, add a _directive_. Recognized
directives include _replace_ (the default), _merge_
(avoid replacing a list), _delete_ and a few more
(see [these notes][strategic-merge]).
Fun fact - any resource file can be used as
an SMP, overwriting matching fields in another
resource with the same group/version/kind/name,
but leaving all other fields as they were.
TODO(monopole): add ptr to example.
## patchJson6902
A _patchJson6902_ refers to a kubernetes object and a [JSONPatch]
that can patch the object. A [JSONPatch] contains a list of operations to change the object's field directly.
This is different from [patch], which is
applied to a target kubernetes object by [strategic merge].
_patchesJson6902_ is a field in kustomization. It contains a list of
_patchJson6902_.
A _patchJson6902_ refers to a kubernetes [resource] and
a [JSONPatch] specifying how to change the resource.
A _patchJson6902_ can do almost everything a
_patchStrategicMerge_ can do, but with a briefer
syntax. See this [example][patchExampleJson6902].
## resource
A _resource_, in the context of kustomize, is a path to
a [YAML] or [JSON] file that completely defines a
functional k8s API object, like a deployment or a
configmap.
A _resource_ in the context of a REST-ful API is the
target object of an HTTP operation like _GET_, _PUT_ or
_POST_. k8s offers a REST-ful API surface to interact
with clients.
A _resource_, in the context of kustomization file,
is a path to a [YAML] or [JSON] file describing
a k8s API object, like a Deployment or a
ConfigmMap.
More generally, a resource can be any correct YAML file
that [defines an object](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/kubernetes-objects/#required-fields)
with a _kind_ and a _metadata/name_ field.
A _resource_ in the content of a REST-ful API is the
target of an HTTP operation like _GET_, _PUT_ or
_POST_. k8s offers a RESTful API surface to interact
with clients.
