kubectl-edit: Edit a resource in JSON format.
$ kubectl edit ${resource}/${resource_name} --output json
try on your machine
This command is used to edit a Kubernetes resource in JSON format.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
kubectl
: This is the command-line tool for interacting with Kubernetes clusters.edit
: This is the command used to edit the specified resource.${resource}/${resource_name}
: This is the placeholder for the resource and resource name. You need to replace${resource}
with the actual resource type (e.g.,deployment
,pod
,service
) and${resource_name}
with the name of the resource you want to edit.--output json
: This flag specifies that the output of the command should be in JSON format.
When you run this command, it will open the specified resource in the default text editor of your system, allowing you to modify its configuration in JSON format. Once you make the necessary changes and save the file, the changes will be applied to the resource in your Kubernetes cluster.
