Add machine readable --output options to `kubectl api-resources` #1382

Open grant0417 opened 1 year ago

grant0417 commented 1 year ago

What would you like to be added?

Currently the kubectl api-resources command --output flag only takes wide or name, a machine readable format such as json would be useful for scripting/utilizing kubectl

Why is this needed?

I am a dev at fig and help maintain the autocomplete repo, we generate completions for the kubectl CLI based on kubectl api-resources --output name right now, but this lacks support for short names which are hard to parse from the human readable kubectl api-resources, which would be easily parsed from a kubectl api-resources --output json command.

This might be a much less common use case for others but it still feels useful to have machine readable output for as many --output flags as possible.

This sound like a decent issue to start with as a new contributor I feel? Could I take this up if it gets accepted by a sig?

Reasonable request. Thanks for offering to work on it @XDRAGON2002. Let me know if you run into issues with the printers.

@grant0417 earliest this would make it in is 1.28 so if you're time pressed you could essentially walk and build your own via

kubectl get --raw /apis

Oh interesting! No, not a major rush here. Just want to improve some of our ux but it isn't a major priority.

Thanks @eddiezane and @XDRAGON2002
