kubectl-colorize-managed-fields

A kubectl plugin to display colorized fields of the kubernetes resources based on their managed fields.

Installation

Using go install

$ go install github.com/tt-kuma/kubectl-colorize-managed-fields/cmd/kubectl-colorize-managed-fields@latest

Usage

Here is an example of a resource applied by specifying a field manager.

$ cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - --server-side --field-manager sample-manager
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: sample
data:
  key1: value1
  key2: value2
  key3: value3
EOF

Run kubectl colorize-managed-fields. You can specify target resources like kubectl get.

$ kubectl colorize-managed-fields configmaps sample

You can see the following yaml with colorized fields based on managed fields.

For another example, overwrite some fields by specifying another field manager.

$ cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - --server-side --field-manager new-sample-manager --force-conflicts
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: sample
data:
  key1: new-value1
  key2: value2
EOF

When multiple manager exists, each manager assigned a different color. The fields managed by multiple managers are colorized by fixed color indicating a conflict.
