✨ KUBERNETES(1)(kubernetes) — the kubectl config get-contexts page ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for kubectl config get-contexts 💖 this is from the kubernetes manual, section 1, and it was originally written down by Eric Paris back in Jan 2015 — yeah, ancient history, but she still ate 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

kubectl config get-contexts — Describe one or many contexts

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

kubectl config get-contexts [OPTIONS]

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

It displays one or many contexts from the kubeconfig file. that's the whole vibe. you point it at your kubeconfig and it tells you what contexts are in there. iconic behavior honestly 💖

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• --no-headers=false — when you're using the default output format or the custom-column output format, this says don't print the headers. default is to print the headers, so like, they stay unless you tell them to leave 🙈
• -o, --output="" — Output format. One of: (name). that's it, that's the list. no cap.

---
