Update fields of a resource using strategic merge patch, a JSON merge patch, or a JSON patch.

JSON and YAML formats are accepted.

Syntax

werf kubectl patch (-f FILENAME | TYPE NAME) [-p PATCH|--patch-file FILE] [options]

Examples

  # Partially update a node using a strategic merge patch, specifying the patch as JSON
  kubectl patch node k8s-node-1 -p '{"spec":{"unschedulable":true}}'
  
  # Partially update a node using a strategic merge patch, specifying the patch as YAML
  kubectl patch node k8s-node-1 -p $'spec:\n unschedulable: true'
  
  # Partially update a node identified by the type and name specified in "node.json" using strategic merge patch
  kubectl patch -f node.json -p '{"spec":{"unschedulable":true}}'
  
  # Update a container's image; spec.containers[*].name is required because it's a merge key
  kubectl patch pod valid-pod -p '{"spec":{"containers":[{"name":"kubernetes-serve-hostname","image":"new image"}]}}'
  
  # Update a container's image using a JSON patch with positional arrays
  kubectl patch pod valid-pod --type='json' -p='[{"op": "replace", "path": "/spec/containers/0/image", "value":"new image"}]'
  
  # Update a deployment's replicas through the 'scale' subresource using a merge patch
  kubectl patch deployment nginx-deployment --subresource='scale' --type='merge' -p '{"spec":{"replicas":2}}'

Options

      --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.
      --dry-run="none"
            Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that   
            would be sent, without sending it. If server strategy, submit server-side request       
            without persisting the resource.
      --field-manager="kubectl-patch"
            Name of the manager used to track field ownership.
  -f, --filename=[]
            Filename, directory, or URL to files identifying the resource to update
  -k, --kustomize=""
            Process the kustomization directory. This flag can`t be used together with -f or -R.
      --local=false
            If true, patch will operate on the content of the file, not the server-side resource.
  -o, --output=""
            Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-template, go-template-file, template,      
            templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-json, jsonpath-file).
  -p, --patch=""
            The patch to be applied to the resource JSON file.
      --patch-file=""
            A file containing a patch to be applied to the resource.
  -R, --recursive=false
            Process the directory used in -f, --filename recursively. Useful when you want to       
            manage related manifests organized within the same directory.
      --show-managed-fields=false
            If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format.
      --subresource=""
            If specified, patch will operate on the subresource of the requested object. Must be    
            one of [status scale]. This flag is beta and may change in the future.
      --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].
      --type="strategic"
