Mastering Kubernetes - Second Edition

Dissecting the CoreV1API group

Let's dive in and understand the CoreV1API group. The Python object has 481 public attributes:

>>> attributes = [x for x in dir(v1) if not x.startswith('__')]
>>> len(attributes)
481  

Ignore the attributes that starts with double underscores because those are special class/instance methods unrelated to Kubernetes.

Let's pick ten random methods and see what they look like:

>>> import random
>>> from pprint import pprint as pp
>>> pp(random.sample(attributes, 10))
['patch_namespaced_pod',
 'connect_options_node_proxy_with_path_with_http_info',
 'proxy_delete_namespaced_pod_with_path',
 'delete_namespace',
 'proxy_post_namespaced_pod_with_path_with_http_info',
 'proxy_post_namespaced_service',
 'list_namespaced_pod_with_http_info', ...
