Description

Lots of teams we work with have significant bash/python wrappers around Tilt that

  • do some cluster setup
  • run tilt up or tilt down
  • change the arguments to tilt
  • do cleanup when tilt exists

I really like Tidepool's wrapper, which has a good menu of the things people typically do with these wrappers
https://github.com/tidepool-org/development/blob/master/bin/tidepool

I wonder if it's worth abstracting out some common patterns into a python SDK to make this a bit easier.

This ticket is to help us collect feedback about what this sdk might look like and what useful stuff it would contain
