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 your current namespace unless you pass --all-namespaces.

Uninitialized objects are not shown unless --include-uninitialized is passed.

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.

To list kubectl get supported resources, type: kubectl api-resources

To list kubectl get options, type: kubectl get --help

To print the list of kubectl global command-line options (applies to all commands), type: kubectl options

Usage: kubectl get [(-o|--output=) format] (TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP] [NAME | -l label] | TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP]/NAME ...) [flags] [options]

-A, --all-namespaces=false
    If present, list the requested object(s) across all namespaces.
    Namespace in current context is ignored even if specified with --namespace.

-o, --output=''
    Output format.
    One of:
    json
    yaml
    wide
    name
    custom-columns=...
    custom-columns-file=...
    go-template=...
    go-template-file=...
    jsonpath=...
    jsonpath-file=...
    See custom columns [http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/kubectl-overview/#custom-columns],
    golang template [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview]
    and jsonpath template [http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/jsonpath].

    --no-headers=false
    When using the default or custom-column output format, don't print headers (default print headers).

    --allow-missing-template-keys=true
    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.

    --chunk-size=500
    Return large lists in chunks rather than all at once.
    Pass 0 to disable.
    This flag is beta and may change in the future.

    --field-selector=''
    Selector (field query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.
    (e.g. --field-selector key1=value1,key2=value2).
    The server only supports a limited number of field queries per type.

-f, --filename=[]
    Filename, directory, or URL to files identifying the resource to get from a server.

    --ignore-not-found=false
    If the requested object does not exist the command will return exit code 0.

-k, --kustomize=''
    Process the kustomization directory.
    This flag can't be used together with -f or -R.

-L, --label-columns=[]
    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=false
    Output watch event objects when --watch or --watch-only is used.
    Existing objects are output as initial ADDED events.

    --raw=''
    Raw URI to request from the server.
    Uses the transport specified by the kubeconfig file.

-R, --recursive=false
    Process the directory used in -f, --filename recursively.
    Useful when you want to manage related manifests organized within the same directory.

-l, --selector=''
    Selector (label query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.
    (e.g. -l key1=value1,key2=value2)

    --server-print=true
    If true, have the server return the appropriate table output.
    Supports extension APIs and CRDs.

    --show-kind=false
    If present, list the resource type for the requested object(s).

    --show-labels=false
    When printing, show all labels as the last column (default hide labels column)

    --sort-by=''
    If non-empty, sort list types using this field specification.
    The field specification is expressed as a JSONPath expression (e.g. '{.metadata.name}').
    The field in the API resource specified by this JSONPath expression must be an integer or a string.

    --template=''
    Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file.
    The template format is golang templates [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview].

-w, --watch=false
    After listing/getting the requested object, watch for changes.
    Uninitialized objects are excluded if no object name is provided.

    --watch-only=false
    Watch for changes to the requested object(s), without listing/getting first.
