KUBERNETES(1)(kubernetes)

💖 KUBERNETES(1)(kubernetes) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the kubernetes corner of the manual pages, section 1 ✨ this one was originally written by Eric Paris back in January 2015, and it's giving "old but iconic." let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

kubeadm config print init-defaults — prints the default init configuration, like, the starter pack that can be used for 'kubeadm init' 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

kubeadm config print init-defaults [OPTIONS]

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so this command prints objects, for example the default init configuration that gets used for 'kubeadm init'. it's the vibe-check version of your config — everything laid out, nothing spicy 👑

ngl there's a lil catch: sensitive values, like the Bootstrap Token fields, get replaced with placeholder values like "abcdef.0123456789abcdef". the reason is lowkey genius — it lets stuff pass validation without doing the real computation for actually creating a token. so it's safe to peek at, fr fr 🔥

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• --component-configs=[] — a comma-separated list of component config API objects you want the default values printed for. the available values are: [KubeProxyConfiguration KubeletConfiguration]. and bestie, if this flag is not set, no component configs will be printed. periodt 🙈

---

🦋 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🦋

these ones come from the parent command, so they're not this command's own thing, but they still apply:

• --kubeconfig="/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf" — the kubeconfig file to use when talking to the cluster. if the flag is not set, a set of standard locations can be searched for an existing kubeconfig file 🔍
• --rootfs="" — the path to the 'real' host root filesystem. this will cause kubeadm to chroot into the provided path. it's giving "let me step into the real world" 🧚
• --version=false — --version, --version=raw prints version information and quits; --version=vX.Y.Z... sets the reported version 🌈

💜 HISTORY 💜

January 2015, originally compiled by Eric Paris (eparis at redhat dot com) based on the kubernetes source material, but hopefully they have been automatically generated since! 😭 iconic honestly.
