kubectl-pod-inspect
When you have a pod composed of multiple containers, it can be tedious to identify which container
is failing. kubectl describe is just too verbose. I got tired of searching the describe output for errors
to track down the failed container.
kubectl-pod-inspect gives you just enough information about the containers to figure out what is going on
quickly:
- a list of all containers and their current status and image
- all pod failure status conditions
- the most recent N pod events (defaults to 10)
- most recent N log lines from any non-ready containers (defaults to 5)
Example
In this example output, you can see that container msgqueue is not running, due to an image pull problem.
Container datagen is running, but hasn't completed startup yet.
