Error: json: cannot unmarshal object into Go struct field Kustomization.patchesStrategicMerge of type patch.StrategicMerge

[hanyouqing]

I wanted to add a sidecar container with kustomize, and following the docs here https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/blob/1dad3f09757130b4c1149a8e48eb5c076cd46c07/examples/patchMultipleObjects.md, but it doesn't work any more.

got the error blow:

Error: json: cannot unmarshal object into Go struct field Kustomization.patchesStrategicMerge of type patch.StrategicMerge

kubectl version:

$ kubectl version

Anyone have suggestions?

• kustomization.yaml

patches:
- path: patch_sidecar.yaml
  target:
    kind: Deployment

• patch_sidecar.yaml

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: web
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:

      - name: envoy
        image: envoyproxy/envoy

BTW, it seems that a large number of official documents are out of date.

Anyone can help? @phanimarupaka @novalagung @monopole

This could be the reason: #1373 (comment)

[hanyouqing]

reason

Yeah, thanks! it should be the reason, we've use kustomize instead of kubectl kustomize for a while.
