kubedump

Tool for dumping manifests from your Kubernetes clusters.

Installation

Precompiled Binaries

Binaries are available for all major platforms. See the releases page.

Homebrew

Using the Homebrew package manager for macOS:

brew install sj14/tap/kubedump

Manually

It's also possible to install via go get:

go get -u github.com/sj14/kubedump
