Notes
-----
.. note::
- While querying, please use ``query`` or ``lookup`` format with ``wantlist=True`` to provide an easier and more consistent interface. For more details, see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/plugins/lookup.html#forcing-lookups-to-return-lists-query-and-wantlist-true.
Examples
--------
.. code-block:: yaml
- name: Fetch a list of namespaces
set_fact:
projects: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', api_version='v1', kind='Namespace') }}"
- name: Fetch all deployments
set_fact:
deployments: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', kind='Deployment') }}"
- name: Fetch all deployments in a namespace
set_fact:
deployments: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', kind='Deployment', namespace='testing') }}"
- name: Fetch a specific deployment by name
set_fact:
deployments: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', kind='Deployment', namespace='testing', resource_name='elastic') }}"
- name: Fetch with label selector
set_fact:
service: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', kind='Service', label_selector='app=galaxy') }}"
# Use parameters from a YAML config
- name: Load config from the Ansible controller filesystem
set_fact:
config: "{{ lookup('file', 'service.yml') | from_yaml }}"
- name: Using the config (loaded from a file in prior task), fetch the latest version of the object
set_fact:
service: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', resource_definition=config) }}"
- name: Use a config from the local filesystem
set_fact:
service: "{{ query('kubernetes.core.k8s', src='service.yml') }}"
Return Values
-------------
Common return values are documented `here <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/common_return_values.html#common-return-values>`_, the following are the fields unique to this lookup:
