🎀 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🎀

these aren't even her options, they're the family options she inherited, and honestly? iconic of her. 💅

• --as="" — username to impersonate for the operation. could be a regular user, could be a service account in a namespace, no judgement either way 🫶
• --as-group=[] — group to impersonate for the operation. this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups, so go off, collect them all 🌈
• --as-uid="" — UID to impersonate for the operation.
• --as-user-extra=[] — user extras to impersonate for the operation. repeatable, so you can specify multiple values for the same key 💅
• --cache-dir="/home/username/.kube/cache" — default cache directory. that's literally the default, character for character, don't come for me 🍓
• --certificate-authority="" — path to a cert file for the certificate authority 📜
• --client-certificate="" — path to a client certificate file for TLS
• --client-key="" — path to a client key file for TLS 🔑
• --cluster="" — the name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
• --context="" — the name of the kubeconfig context to use
• --disable-compression=false — if true, opt-out of response compression for all requests to the server. no zipping, no squeezing, just raw data fr fr
• --insecure-skip-tls-verify=false — if true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. and bestie? this will make your HTTPS connections insecure. like, actually insecure. not a vibe. 🚨
• --kubeconfig="" — use a particular kubeconfig file
• --kuberc="" — path to the kuberc file to use for preferences. this can be disabled by exporting KUBECTL_KUBERC=false feature gate or turning off the feature KUBERC=off. (yes, both ways, she's flexible ✨)
• --match-server-version=false — require server version to match client version. they gotta match or it's giving ✋
• -n, --namespace="" — if present, the namespace scope for this CLI request
• --password="" — password for basic authentication to the API server 🤫
• --profile="none" — name of profile to capture. one of (none|cpu|heap|goroutine|threadcreate|block|mutex|trace) — pick your fighter 👑
• --profile-output="profile.pprof" — name of the file to write the profile to
• --proxy-url="" — proxy URL to use for requests to the API server
• --request-timeout="0" — the length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). a value of zero means don't timeout requests. zero = infinite patience, main character energy honestly ⏳
• -s, --server="" — the address and port of the Kubernetes API server
• --tls-server-name="" — server name to use for server certificate validation. if it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used
• --token="" — bearer token for authentication to the API server 🎟️
• --user="" — the name of the kubeconfig user to use
• --username="" — username for basic authentication to the API server
• --version=false — --version, --version=raw prints version information and quits; --version=vX.Y.Z... sets the reported version
• --warnings-as-errors=false — treat warnings received from the server as errors and exit with a non-zero exit code. warnings? no ma'am, we take those seriously 💀

🧚 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! 🙈

and that's the tea, bestie 💅 this page lives in the Manuals section, under User, and it's part of KUBERNETES(1)(kubernetes) — with the date up there being January 2015 (well, the original compilation date, at least). slay, stay hydrated, and don't skip your TLS verification 🫶✨
