kubectl-logs: Show logs for all containers in a pod.

kubectl

$ kubectl logs --all-containers=${true} ${pod_name}

try on your machine

The command you provided is used to retrieve the logs of all containers within a specific Kubernetes pod.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

kubectl logs: This is the kubectl command used to retrieve the logs of a pod or container.
--all-containers=${true}: This flag is used to specify that logs from all containers within the pod should be retrieved. By setting the value to ${true}, it means that all containers will be included.
${pod_name}: This is a placeholder for the name of the pod for which you want to retrieve the logs. You need to replace ${pod_name} with the actual name of the pod you want to target.

So, when you run this command with the ${pod_name} replaced by your pod's name, it will fetch the logs of all containers within that particular pod.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
