kubectl get
Synopsis
Display one or many resources.
Prints a table of the most important information about the specified resources. You can filter the list using a label selector and the --selector flag. If the desired resource type is namespaced you will only see results in the current namespace if you don't specify any namespace.
By specifying the output as 'template' and providing a Go template as the value of the --template flag, you can filter the attributes of the fetched resources.
Use "kubectl api-resources" for a complete list of supported resources.
kubectl get [(-o|--output=)json|yaml|name|go-template|go-template-file|template|templatefile|jsonpath|jsonpath-as-json|jsonpath-file|custom-columns|custom-columns-file|wide] (TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP] [NAME | -l label] | TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP]/NAME ...) [flags]

-h, --help | |
help for get | |
--ignore-not-found | |
If the requested object does not exist the command will return exit code 0. | |
-k, --kustomize string | |
Process the kustomization directory. This flag can't be used together with -f or -R. | |
-L, --label-columns strings | |
Accepts a comma separated list of labels that are going to be presented as columns. Names are case-sensitive. You can also use multiple flag options like -L label1 -L label2... | |

--output-watch-events | |
Output watch event objects when --watch or --watch-only is used. Existing objects are output as initial ADDED events. | |
--raw string | |
Raw URI to request from the server. Uses the transport specified by the kubeconfig file. | |
-R, --recursive | |
Process the directory used in -f, --filename recursively. Useful when you want to manage related manifests organized within the same directory. | |
-l, --selector string | |
Selector (label query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.(e.g. -l key1=value1,key2=value2). Matching objects must satisfy all of the specified label constraints. | |
--server-print Default: true | |
If true, have the server return the appropriate table output. Supports extension APIs and CRDs. | |
--show-kind | |
If present, list the resource type for the requested object(s). | |

--show-managed-fields | |
If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format. | |
--sort-by string | |

If specified, gets the subresource of the requested object. This flag is beta and may change in the future. | |
