kubectl proxy

kubectl port-f­orward {pod_name} {local­_po­rt}­:{r­emo­te_­port}
Forward the pod port to your local port

Creating /editing objects

kubectl apply -f ./my-m­ani­fes­t.yaml
Apply a config­uration to a resource by filename or stdin. Also overrides the existing config­ura­tion.
kubectl create -f ./my-m­ani­fes­t.yaml

kubectl run nginx --imag­e=nginx

Resource types

configmaps
ConfigMaps allow you to decouple config­uration artifacts from image content to keep contai­nerized applic­ations portable.
daemonsets
A DaemonSet ensures that all (or some) Nodes run a copy of a Pod.
deploy­ments
A Deployment controller provides declar­ative updates for Pods and Replic­aSets.
ingresses
An Ingress is a collection of rules that allow inbound connec­tions to reach the cluster services.
jobs
A job creates one or more pods and ensures that a specified number of them succes­sfully terminate.
namespaces
Kubernetes supports multiple virtual clusters backed by the same physical cluster. These virtual clusters are called namesp­aces.
nodes
Nodes are the physical cluster nodes.
persis­ten­tvo­lum­eclaims
A Persis­ten­tVo­lum­eClaim (PVC) is a request for storage by a user.
persis­ten­tvo­lumes
A Persis­ten­tVolume (PV) is a piece of storage in the cluster that has been provis­ioned by an admini­str­ator.
pods
A Pod is the basic building block of Kubern­ete­s–the smallest and simplest unit in the Kubernetes object model that you create or deploy.
replic­asets
A ReplicaSet ensures that a specified number of pod replicas are running at any one time.
cronjob
A Cron Job manages time based Jobs.
secrets
Objects of type secret are intended to hold sensitive inform­ation.
services
A Kubernetes Service is an abstra­ction which defines a logical set of Pods and a policy by which to access them.
