Recommended usage conventions for kubectl. Using kubectl in Reusable Scripts For a stable output in a script: Request one of the machine-oriented output forms, such as -o name, -o json, -o yaml, -o go-template, or -o jsonpath. Fully-qualify the version. For example, jobs.v1.batch/myjob. This will ensure that kubectl does not use its default version that can change over time. Don't rely on context, preferences, or other implicit states. Subresources You can use the --subresource argument for kubectl subcommands such as get, patch, edit, apply and replace to fetch and update subresources for all resources that support them.

Synopsis The kubelet is the primary "node agent" that runs on each node. It can register the node with the apiserver using one of: the hostname; a flag to override the hostname; or specific logic for a cloud provider. The kubelet works in terms of a PodSpec. A PodSpec is a YAML or JSON object that describes a pod. The kubelet takes a set of PodSpecs that are provided through various mechanisms (primarily through the apiserver) and ensures that the containers described in those PodSpecs are running and healthy.
