🌸 ISTIOCTL-PROXY-CONFIG(1) 🌸

ok so bestie, welcome to the istioctl-proxy-config glow-up 💅 this is one of those istioctl manual pages, and honestly? it's giving backstage pass to Envoy. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

istioctl-proxy-config — retrieve information about proxy configuration from Envoy [kube only] 🦋

(yeah, <pink>kube only</pink> — meaning this one's a Kubernetes-kinda situation, no cap)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

istioctl proxy-config [flags]

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. flags go brrr ⭐

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this is a group of commands, right — a whole little squad 🫶 — and the entire job of the squad is to retrieve information about proxy configuration from the Envoy config dump. that's it. that's the mission. iconic behavior honestly 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for proxy-config. it's literally just here to help a bestie out 😭
  • -o, --output="short" — the output format, and you gotta pick one of json|yaml|short. the default is short, and like… shortest is usually cutest, but you do you 💖
  • --proxy-admin-port=15000 — the Envoy proxy admin port. it's 15000. remember it, love it, don't lose it 🎀

✨ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS ✨

these are the hand-me-downs from the parent command — not technically ours, but they absolutely show up to the party 🧚

  • --as="" — username to impersonate for the operation. user could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace 👀
  • --as-group=[] — group to impersonate for the operation, and bestie you can repeat this flag to specify multiple groups. stack 'em up 🌈
  • --as-uid="" — UID to impersonate for the operation. yes, the UID. no cap.
  • --context="" — the Kubernetes configuration context 🦋
  • -i, --istioNamespace="istio-system" — the Istio system namespace, default istio-system. yes it has a capital N in the middle, don't @ me, that's just how it's spelled ✨
  • --kubeclient-timeout="15s" — Kubernetes client timeout as a time.Duration string, defaults to 15 seconds. fifteen. seconds. be patient, but only a lil 💀
  • -c, --kubeconfig="" — the Kubernetes configuration file 🎀
  • -n, --namespace="" — the Kubernetes namespace 📁
  • --vklog=0 — a number for the log level verbosity. like the -v flag. ex: --vklog=9. turn it up to nine if you're feeling chaotic 🔥

✨ EXAMPLE ✨

fr fr here's how you actually use it:

  # Retrieve information about proxy configuration from an Envoy instance.
  istioctl proxy-config <clusters|listeners|routes|endpoints|ecds|bootstrap|log|secret> <pod-name[.namespace]>

see that <clusters|listeners|routes|endpoints|ecds|bootstrap|log|secret>? that's the menu, bestie — pick your fighter. then you give it a <pod-name[.namespace]> and you're off 🚀
