okay bestie, welcome to the kubernetes manual, section 1, bestie. this page was written by Eric Paris back in Jan 2015 and it's all about kubectl auth reconcile. let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
kubectl auth reconcile β Reconciles rules for RBAC role, role binding, cluster role, and cluster role binding objects
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
kubectl auth reconcile [OPTIONS]
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Reconciles rules for RBAC role, role binding, cluster role, and cluster role binding objects. literally its whole personality π
Missing objects are created, and the containing namespace is created for namespaced objects, if required. so if it's not there, it just... makes it. main character energy, no cap.
Existing roles are updated to include the permissions in the input objects, and remove extra permissions if --remove-extra-permissions is specified. π
Existing bindings are updated to include the subjects in the input objects, and remove extra subjects if --remove-extra-subjects is specified. β¨
This is preferred to 'apply' for RBAC resources so that semantically-aware merging of rules and subjects is done. it's giving upgrade, fr fr.
π OPTIONS π
--allow-missing-template-keys=trueβ If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only applies to golang and jsonpath output formats.--dry-run="none"β Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it.
