Query, format and filter OpenShift resources

To list everything in the project use:

oc get all

To get only specific resource types, use them in the query:

oc get po
oc get deploy

To get the yaml of the resource:

oc get po first-app-6c5f898c87-rxmhl -o yaml

You can get the same output as json:

oc get po first-app-6c5f898c87-rxmhl -o json

Another way to get detailed information is to use describe:

oc describe po first-app-6c5f898c87-rxmhl

You can pipe to grep and look up for any resource attribute:

oc describe po first-app-6c5f898c87-rxmhl | grep IP

With oc get you can control which specific attributes are included in the output:

oc get po -o custom-columns=NAME:.metadata.name,RSRC:.metadata.labels

this prints just the name and attached labels to the pod

The oc command also support filtering resources using label selectors with -l flag:

oc get pod -l deployment=first-app

you can also filter using field-selector flag:

oc get pod --field-selector=status.phase=Running

g this will list the running pods
