kubectl api-resources
kubectl explain resource-name
kubectl run redis --image=redis123 --dry-run=client -o yaml > file_name.yaml
-> to extract yaml out of creat new resource || existing instance
KUBECTL CHEATSHEET : https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/cheatsheet/
##IMPERITIVE COMMANDS ARE THE BEST
--dry-run:
By default, as soon as the command is run, the resource will be created. If you simply want to test your command, use the --dry-run=client option. This will not create the resource. Instead, tell you whether the resource can be created and if your command is right.
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --dry-run=client -o yaml > nginx-pod.yaml
###POD Create an NGINX Pod
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx
OR
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --dry-run=client -o yaml
###Deployment Create a deployment
kubectl create deployment --image=nginx nginx
OR
kubectl create deployment --image=nginx nginx --dry-run -o yaml
Generate Deployment with 4 Replicas
kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx --replicas=4
Scale existing:
kubectl scale deployment nginx --replicas=4
Another way to do this is to save the YAML definition to a file and modify
kubectl create deployment nginx --image=nginx--dry-run=client -o yaml > nginx-deployment.yaml
and then update.
###Service Create a Service named redis-service of type ClusterIP to expose pod redis on port 6379
kubectl expose pod redis --port=6379 --name redis-service --dry-run=client -o yaml
(This will automatically use the pod's labels as selectors)
Or
kubectl create service clusterip redis --tcp=6379:6379 --dry-run=client -o yaml
(This will not use the pods' labels as selectors; instead it will assume selectors as app=redis. You cannot pass in selectors as an option. So it does not work well if your pod has a different label set. So generate the file and modify the selectors before creating the service)
Create a Service named nginx of type NodePort to expose pod nginx's port 80 on port 30080 on the nodes:
kubectl expose pod nginx --port=80 --name nginx-service --type=NodePort --dry-run=client -o yaml
(This will automatically use the pod's labels as selectors, but you cannot specify the node port. You have to generate a definition file and then add the node port in manually before creating the service with the pod.)
Or
kubectl create service nodeport nginx --tcp=80:80 --node-port=30080 --dry-run=client -o yaml
(This will not use the pods' labels as selectors)
Both the above commands have their own challenges. While one of it cannot accept a selector the other cannot accept a node port. I would recommend going with the kubectl expose
command. If you need to specify a node port, generate a definition file using the same command and manually input the nodeport before creating the service.
