karmadactl annotate

Update the annotations on a resource

Synopsis

Update the annotations on one or more resources.

All Kubernetes objects support the ability to store additional data with the object as annotations. Annotations are key/value pairs that can be larger than labels and include arbitrary string values such as structured JSON. Tools and system extensions may use annotations to store their own data.

Attempting to set an annotation that already exists will fail unless --overwrite is set. If --resource-version is specified and does not match the current resource version on the server the command will fail.

Use "karmadactl api-resources" for a complete list of supported resources.

karmadactl annotate [--overwrite] (-f FILENAME | TYPE NAME) KEY_1=VAL_1 ... KEY_N=VAL_N [--resource-version=version]

Examples

  # Update deployment 'foo' with the annotation 'work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution' and the value 'overwrite'
# If the same annotation is set multiple times, only the last value will be applied
[1]karmadactl annotate deployment foo work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution='overwrite'

# Update a deployment identified by type and name in "deployment.json"
[1]%!s(MISSING) annotate -f deployment.json work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution='overwrite'

# Update deployment 'foo' with the annotation 'work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution' and the value 'abort', overwriting any existing value
[1]%!s(MISSING) annotate --overwrite deployment foo work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution='abort'

# Update all deployments in the namespace
[1]%!s(MISSING) annotate deployment --all work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution='abort'

# Update deployment 'foo' only if the resource is unchanged from version 1
[1]%!s(MISSING) annotate deployment foo work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution='abort' --resource-version=1

# Update deployment 'foo' by removing an annotation named 'work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution' if it exists
# Does not require the --overwrite flag
[1]%!s(MISSING) annotate deployment foo work.karmada.io/conflict-resolution-

Options

      --all                            Select all resources, in the namespace of the specified resource types.
-A, --all-namespaces If true, check the specified action in all namespaces.
--allow-missing-template-keys If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only applies to golang and jsonpath output formats. (default true)
--dry-run string[="unchanged"] Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it. If server strategy, submit server-side request without persisting the resource. (default "none")
--field-manager string Name of the manager used to track field ownership. (default "kubectl-annotate")
--field-selector string Selector (field query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.(e.g. --field-selector key1=value1,key2=value2). The server only supports a limited number of field queries per type.
-f, --filename strings Filename, directory, or URL to files identifying the resource to update the annotation
-h, --help help for annotate
--karmada-context string The name of the kubeconfig context to use
--kubeconfig string Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI requests.
-k, --kustomize string Process the kustomization directory. This flag can't be used together with -f or -R.
--list If true, display the annotations for a given resource.
--local If true, annotation will NOT contact api-server but run locally.
-n, --namespace string If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request.
-o, --output string Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-template, go-template-file, template, templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-json, jsonpath-file).
--overwrite If true, allow annotations to be overwritten, otherwise reject annotation updates that overwrite existing annotations.
-R, --recursive Process the directory used in -f, --filename recursively. Useful when you want to manage related manifests organized within the same directory.
--resource-version string If non-empty, the annotation update will only succeed if this is the current resource-version for the object. Only valid when specifying a single resource.
-l, --selector string Selector (label query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.(e.g. -l key1=value1,key2=value2). Matching objects must satisfy all of the specified label constraints.
--show-managed-fields If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format.
--template string Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang templates [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview].

Options inherited from parent commands

      --add-dir-header                   If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages
--alsologtostderr log to standard error as well as files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--log-backtrace-at traceLocation when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace (default :0)
--log-dir string If non-empty, write log files in this directory (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--log-file string If non-empty, use this log file (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--log-file-max-size uint Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to (no effect when -logtostderr=true). Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited. (default 1800)
--logtostderr log to standard error instead of files (default true)
--one-output If true, only write logs to their native severity level (vs also writing to each lower severity level; no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--skip-headers If true, avoid header prefixes in the log messages
--skip-log-headers If true, avoid headers when opening log files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
--stderrthreshold severity logs at or above this threshold go to stderr when writing to files and stderr (no effect when -logtostderr=true or -alsologtostderr=true) (default 2)
-v, --v Level number for the log level verbosity
--vmodule moduleSpec comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging
