kubectl convert

Convert config files between different API versions

Synopsis

Convert config files between different API versions. Both YAML and JSON formats are accepted.

The command takes filename, directory, or URL as input, and convert it into format of version specified by --output-version flag. If target version is not specified or not supported, convert to latest version.

The default output will be printed to stdout in YAML format. One can use -o option to change to output destination.

kubectl convert -f FILENAME

Examples

# Convert 'pod.yaml' to latest version and print to stdout.
$ kubectl convert -f pod.yaml

# Convert the live state of the resource specified by 'pod.yaml' to the latest version
# and print to stdout in json format.
$ kubectl convert -f pod.yaml --local -o json

# Convert all files under current directory to latest version and create them all.
$ kubectl convert -f . | kubectl create -f -

Options

  -f, --filename=[]: Filename, directory, or URL to file to need to get converted.
      --local[=true]: If true, convert will NOT try to contact api-server but run locally.
      --no-headers[=false]: When using the default output, don't print headers.
  -o, --output="": Output format. One of: json|yaml|wide|name|go-template=...|go-template-file=...|jsonpath=...|jsonpath-file=... See golang template [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview] and jsonpath template [http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/docs/user-guide/jsonpath.md].
      --output-version="": Output the formatted object with the given version (default api-version).
      --schema-cache-dir="~/.kube/schema": If non-empty, load/store cached API schemas in this directory, default is '$HOME/.kube/schema'
  -a, --show-all[=false]: When printing, show all resources (default hide terminated pods.)
      --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].
      --validate[=true]: If true, use a schema to validate the input before sending it
