stern: Tail all pods with a specific status.
$ stern . --container-state ${select}
try on your machine
The command "stern . --container-state ${select}" is likely used to monitor and view logs of containers running inside a Kubernetes cluster. Stern is a command-line utility designed for tailing and searching logs.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "stern" is the executable command.
- "." refers to the current directory where stern is executed.
- "--container-state" is a flag or option used to specify the container state to filter the logs. "${select}" is a placeholder variable that is expected to be substituted with an actual container state value like "running", "terminated", or "waiting".
- For example: "--container-state running" will only display logs for containers that are currently running.
- The command will likely connect to the Kubernetes cluster and start streaming the logs that match the provided container state filter in real-time.
Make sure to replace "${select}" with an actual container state value when executing the command.
