You have to love a design so simple and so robust that I can build the Bicep cli and a new set of packages from source, then reference them in my Bicep Local extension, and publish with the new cli: the resulting extension works perfectly in the shipping version of the cli.
Generating Bicep types happens when publishing the extension. In the current shipping code, the generator prevents using a type twice, including arrays. Or from using collections or dictionaries. Al fixed back in December.
I haven't really pushed it too hard. The code in github looks very sound. But the dictionaries in the screenshots will tell you that these issues are looking very fixed.
This all started because I wanted to make a fancy way to deploy the example app for my dotnet operator library. So, I added an Aspire app host project. THAT led me to submitting a pull request to Aspire so its Kubernetes integration will generate valid and working Helm charts. If you need that too, you can pull it here: https://github.com/dotnet/aspire/pull/13800#issuecomment-3721402681.
After that I figured I could tackle the issues in the type generator for Bicep Local.... And while reading the code; I realized it had already been fixed. π€£
I just needed to build the code and use it. The Bicep team has all the scripts in their repo to make that very easy.
And after metric loads of fun with #bicep local, and some fixing of #aspire #kubernetes support: I can deploy my #KrazyK8s operator to Kubernetes from a bicep template when aspire produces a valid helm chart.
So, I wrote a library for making Kubernetes operators in C# like you'd make MVC controllers moons ago. I call it KrazyK8s, and I've been bringing it up to date to put out on GitHub.
The example I'm shipping with it is what I made with it first, and the whole reason why I made it in the first place: An ingress operator that acts as a MDNS transponder for `.local` hostnames. Since I didn't have DNS on my home network back then, and it seemed like a real easy way to just "make it all work". I've updated its packages and added an Aspire project to produce a helm chart.
But Aspire can't build the helm chart and then deploy it in one shot. A normal person would just write a script with the 4 commands it takes to build the container, push it, create the chart, and then deploy that chart. First thing, I'm not normal and second; a script gets the job done. But it doesn't depict the deployment as steps being performed, it's just the commands it takes to do it.
I rather like Bicep. And not just because ARM was frequently painful to write (even with tooling). But because it does a decent job of representing the logical steps and what is being done at the same time and has extensibility and quality of life features around code sharing.
So, I made Flexor (yes its another arm pun and I'm only minimally sorry).
Flexor enables Bicep templates to:
- Run CLI commands, which enables running Bicep multiple times.
- Run script files with Cmd, Pwsh, or Bash
- Pull Git Repos
And because good enough wasn't enough:
- Define resources handled by scripts, and
- "Deploy" those resources.
Developing a Bicep local extension with the minimal documentation was certainly interesting. The example code demonstrates the pattern and behaviors, but you can only see that once you've had to figure out what those are on your own. Plenty of blogs, but very little substance in them. I'll probably have to write something up myself that just tells you whats what. I'd like to see local deployments eventually evolve from an experiment to a supported feature, and people kicking those tires is how that happens.
And now I have 2 repos to prep XD
Single Dumbbell Bicep Curls πͺ
Understanding these points matters because bicep growth isnβt about curling heavier, itβs about creating the right stimulus.

The single-arm cable bicep curl is an isolation movement designed to build strength and hypertrophy in the biceps by providing constant tension throughout the entire range of motion.
