How to edit a kubernetes resource from a shell script

问题

I went through the documentation to edit kubernetes resource using kubectl edit command. Once I execute the command, the file in YAML-format is opened in the editor where I can change the values as per requirement and save it. I am trying to execute these steps by means of sed. How can the following steps be achieved?

Execute kubectl edit for a deployment resource
Set a value from true to false (using sed)
Save the changes

I tried to achieve this in the following way :

$ kubectl edit deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system | \
   sed -i "s/\(automountServiceAccountToken:.*$\)/automountServiceAccountToken: true/g"`

Your command is missing a backtick. But even though you put it there, it won't work. The reason is because when you do kubectl edit ..., it edits the file on vim. I am not sure sed would work on vim though. Even though if it does, the output goes to a file, so you get the Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal error, which I don't know how to solve.

I would recommend you to get the file and save it. Replace the desired parameters and run it again:

kubectl get deploy tiller-deploy -n kube-system -o yaml > tiller.yaml && sed -i "s/automountServiceAccountToken:.*$/automountServiceAccountToken: true/g" tiller.yaml && kubectl replace -f tiller.yaml

I tried the command above and it worked.

Note: no need to add -n kube-system as the yaml file already contains the namespace.

I automate through piping the commands through sed command without creating a temporary file. Take the below example, where I am replacing nameserver 8.8.8.8 with 1.1.1.1

$ kubectl -n kube-system get configmap/kube-dns -o yaml | sed "s/8.8.8.8/1.1.1.1/" | kubectl replace -f -

I don't know kubectl but doc seems to explain that it extract data, edit from an editor than send back, not sure sed pipe work in this case

if piping wokrs Don't use -i, you don't change a file in a pipe

kubectl edit deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system | \
 sed 's/automountServiceAccountToken:.*$/automountServiceAccountToken: true/g'

if editing a file (and using group in sed)

kubectl edit deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system > YourCOnfigFile && \
 sed -i 's/\(automountServiceAccountToken:\).*$/\1 true/g' YourConfigFile \
 && Some kubectl to send back YourConfigFile
