You should write a Tutor plugin that provides an override to the Kubernetes configuration.
Tutor uses Kustomize and provides a patch k8s-override that performs an strategic merge to the kubernetes manifests. You can read a little about how they work, but the gist of it would be to create a plugin that has the k8s-override patch with a partial definition of the resource you want to change.
from tutor import hooks
hooks.Filters.ENV_PATCHES.add_item(
(
"k8s-override",
"""
---
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: mydeployment
spec:
template:
spec:
# ... Fields I want to override
"""
)
)
