Agreed. Forgive a minor digression, but what OP wrote is my problem now. I'm looking for something like heroku's or fly's release command. I have an idea how to implement it in docker using swarm, but I can't figure out how to do that on k8s. I googled it some time ago, but all the answers were hacks.

Would someone be able to recommend an approach that's not a hack, for implementing a custom release command on k8s? Downtime is fine, but this one off job needs to run before the user facing pods are available.

Look at helm charts, they have become the de facto standard for packaging/distributing/deploying/updating whole apps on Kubernetes

Something like Jsonnet would serve one better, I think. The only part that kinda sucks is the "package management" but that's a small price to pay to avoid the YAML insanity. Helm is fine for consuming third-party packages.
